I am wanting to move a doorway over to the left by 40cm. I have removed some plaster to find the lintel which is 100cm long.
At some point in the job I think I will try to cut through the lintel with a recip. saw (with brick blade). The lintel looks like a breeze block (very similar colour and texture) but I believe it is a lintel (not breeze block) because of its length.
My question is, do these type of lintels have metal reinforcement inside them (which my brick blade might not like too much)?
