  • I have a floor joist that’s a bit spongey/needs replacing what sort of tradesperson do I need? Joiner/carpenter?

  • Builder with carpentry leaning I'd say. If a joist or two needs replacing it's a fairly heavy duty job, and might involve dwarf walls depending if it's ground floor.

    In a similar vein: consulting on replacing a beam lintel with catnic or similar and opening up a window to be an external door: do I need to get a structural engineer involved? It's a 1 story part of the building

  • Chippy, but you also want to know why it's moving. Rotted out where built into wall etc? Does this need looking at too? Damp and ventilation etc.
