Hi everyone, been reading the forum and it's a great resource (thanks to all the experts who post). My first post (and first house!) so go easy!
I'm buying a house at the moment and I want to move a wall to make the (tiny!!!) bathroom bigger.
I don't think the wall is load bearing based upon the floor plan:
What are people's initial thoughts based upon the floorplan, and is there any way I can check without paying for a structural survey?
Also, I would be grateful for people's thoughts regarding the likely cost of moving a non load bearing wall (assuming it is) back 50-75cm or so?
If anyone has any experience of moving/amending staircases to free up more room on the landing that would also be gratefully received, as it would help a lot in this instance . . . .
Thanks to everyone in advance for their help
Mike
