Common Questions
Do I need council approval to remove a load-bearing wall?
In most cases, yes. Removing a load-bearing wall in NSW typically requires a Development Application (DA) or a Complying Development Certificate (CDC). We guide you through the process and work with your engineer to ensure everything is code-compliant.
How do you determine if a wall is load-bearing?
We assess the structure based on the building plans, wall position relative to the roof and floor framing, and in some cases a site visit with a structural engineer. We never assume — we verify before any work begins.
