  • Is removing an internal chimney breast (just on the ground floor) something that would need a visit and sign off for building regs?

    Cheers

  • I do hope you are implying the installation of suitable rsjs, or other support, for the remainder of the chimney breast and stack?

  • That was the next question. I have a vague memory that gallows brackets aren't acceptable now and it should be rsjs in structural walls.

    This isn't one I'm planning to remove. A mate has some cracks appearing in his upstairs flat and is wondering whether it's due to downstairs removing the chimney breast and what sign-off there should be on it
