Hi - my hubby is currently replacing 2 long Windows (go down to skirting board) with one wide window.
Between the two was a plasterboard pillar that was about 2 foot.
He has bricked up the bottom area so we now have 2 top windows with 2 feet of bricks between.
These bricks need removing along with the 2 narrow Windows then the new window will fit into the space.
So far so good?!
There is a steel lintel above the window(s) but we've just noticed there is actually 2 lintels with a gap of about 1/2 inch between them.
What can we do? It looked like 1 continuous lintel - can we bolt the gap somehow? It really is tiny?
Thanks
