Hi, new poster here. will be posting my full project once it gets underway.
But wanting some advice on a chimney breast removal downstairs.
The chimney stack has been removed from the centre of the loft and of course from the roof for a loft conversion.
Now I know it is working top down, so would have to come out of the first bedroom first, then downstairs.
Are chimney stacks used for supporting upstairs at all?
I am a fairly competent DIY'er and would like to undertake this all myself.
Other than getting it inspected first, what should I look out for?
If not what are the typical costs incurred with this sort of project?
Many thanks
