I am replacing a Velux window in my converted loft area. There is a purlin below the window where I need go down with the longer new window. Can I cut the purlin and support somehow or do I need to fit a second Velux below the purlin and have it as 2 windows with a boxed/plastered in purlin between.
By the way the purlin is only 2 x 4.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
