Hi all, I am about to embark on the hazardous task that is employing-a-builder-without-personal-recommendation. Are there any tips for finding a good one? Does membership of the Federation of Master Builders etc. minimise the risks?
We want the widening of a doorway in a part load-bearing wall. Should I expect the builder to spec the supporting lintel or do we also have to employ a structural engineer?
Thanks for any advice.
