I'm not going to be doing it myself, as I don't know anything about building work, so I'm going to be looking for quotes in the near future, but wanted to get a rough idea of how much from the experts here.
My kitchen has old cupboard spaces and an old chimney/cooker section which I want removing.
There's half a chimney extended into the loft area, but the top part was removed sometime ago, so there's no chimney going through the roof itself.
It's a fair amount of brick work to remove and I'd assume it'd need some form of steel girder/lintel? to support the roof if the walls of the old cupboards were removed, I'm not sure. (hence me asking here heh)
I've attached pictures to show what I want removing including the floor plan of our house.
The part marked "A" is the chimney/flue section
The depth of the brick work is 26 inches, so it takes up a fair amount of space in the kitchen.
Let me know what you think.
