What could go wrong?
When we had our rsj put in, building control specifically checked that it was sat on padstones. They were in an out in about ten seconds, but that was one thing they did check.

I asked about regs/sign off and the builder said it wasn't needed as no footings were being dug and the footprint of the house wasn't changing. Thanks for mentioning, I'll do some searching if that's true.

We bought the house about 12 months ago and it didn't come up on the searches or survey. I don't know if this should have been signed off, or if regs were even a thing then, when the arch was made.

Maybe I'm being naive but after getting the quote back already along with a few other jobs seems this guy has good reviews, availability and the price wasn't bad. What could go wrong? Have a few other people coming next week to compare.
edit: regarding what the bricks are sitting on, after removing a few more seems it's not on the floorboards but something deeper, so that's something.
