Stud wall removal

Stud wall removal

Bunbury


Removing walls to create larger open spaces can be a great idea to improve the flow and usability of a home. Spaces can be repurposed or enlarged to suit the needs of our Clients and whatever it may be that they're looking to achieve.

A recent wall removal we undertook in Bunbury is a great example of this, as the kitchen, dining and living rooms were all separated thanks to two walls between them that meant there was scope for improvement.

After liaising with a Structural Engineer to determine the sizes of the LVL beams that would adequately support the roof, our Team set about installing them to the Engineer's specifications. After the beams were in place, it was safe for the stud walls to be removed and the space to be opened up.


With the walls now removed, the home feels much larger and offers much more usability, which our Clients plan on taking advantage of by installing a larger kitchen than what was previously possible.

In combination with the wall, we were also asked to expand a door opening up to standard height, which we completed by installing a new lintel and removing the brickwork underneath.
