Hi guys,
I'm going to being renovating a downstairs room which was originally a garage (already converted with extension over the top). The outer wall was converted to a cavity wall when the upstairs extension was done.
From what I can see they left in the original wall piers from when the garage was a garage.
I'm now trying to maximise the space in the room with the renovations. There are two piers I would like to remove, one on the internal side of the house and one to the outer side.
Neither pier has any load on it (see attached pic), I have already removed one of the top bricks to confirm.
It looks like the bricks are Teed in to the brick work behind as you would expect.
What wold be the best way to cut these bricks so it makes a flush wall but not leave holes if that makes sense?
Cheers,
MT
