Have had boiler replaced, resited elswhere and would like to remove the block built cupboard.
I think that the cupboard was added after the property was built as the joist supported by the cupboard wall has plasterboard between the joist and blockwork.
It appears that this joist supports the bedroom wall above and this is what worries me.
If I add in a piece of joist to the missing section and reinforce each side with 1 meter steel bower plates secured with coach screws, will it be man enough?
I appreciate any advice.
