Your kitchen and dining room in one
Done in a week, with the steel signed off by building control.
Zara, thanks for your call this morning
A load-bearing wall of about three and a half metres needs a steel beam, sized by an engineer and checked by building control. Here is what I would do: prop the floor above, take the wall out and fit the steel, then make good the walls and floor.

You don’t need ChatGPT
Craig asks ChatGPT for the quote in the film. You can build the same quote yourself in Raq.com, from the same price list and branding. If you already use ChatGPT, Claude or another AI app, connect it and it can do the work for you.
