What Are Load-Bearing Walls?

In a nutshell, think of load-bearing walls as the backbone of your home. As the name implies, certain walls inside your home help to support the weight of the overall structure.

This makes it easy to understand why you can’t simply take a sledgehammer to remove this type of wall.

Structural Integrity: Ensuring Safety During Load-Bearing Wall Removal

Typically, temporary supports are put in place to hold the weight while the wall is being removed.

Depending on the plan, columns or beams are then put in place to support the weight of the structure.

It’s easy to see why a structural engineer and experienced construction crew are vital to the overall safety and integrity of the building whenever a structural wall removal project is involved.

Enhancing Your Home: The Benefits of Removing Load-Bearing Walls

The majority of people remove internal walls, including structural brick walls, because they want a more open living space that gives the home a light, airy feeling.

Removing one or more interior walls not only creates a more flexible use of space but also enhances the overall appearance of your home.

When structural walls are removed, most homeowners immediately see more natural light enter the home, making home interiors feel brighter and “happier”.

Homes with open space or open floor plans have a more modern feel to them, which can greatly increase the value of your home.

Q: How much of a load-bearing wall can be removed?

A: Most structural walls can be completely removed as long as the weight is redistributed somewhere else, such as a beam or column. Remember that many structural walls contain plumbing, wiring, or ventilation systems, and these, too, must be rerouted.

Q: Do I need permission or a permit to remove a load-bearing wall?

A: Generally speaking, yes, you do, especially if it is a structural wall. You can read more about permits here. Failure to obtain the proper permission or permits can result in huge fines. The permit process can be confusing. Don’t risk paying fines later on, call the pros at Wall Removal Experts Perth. We can obtain the necessary permits so your home remodeling project is stress-free.

Q: What needs to be done before removing a load-bearing wall?

A: A structural engineer must be employed to determine what is inside the wall and how the weight of the structure will be supported once the wall is removed. The engineer will do a full site inspection and make plans for temporary supports to be put in place while the wall is removed. If there are electrical wires, gas pipes, or plumbing that need to be rerouted, all of these items will be turned off. This is a complicated job and not one that DIYers can handle without help from an engineer and construction experts.

Q: Can you remove a load-bearing wall without an engineer?

A: No. The weight that this internal wall supports must be determined and then redistributed using beams, columns, or some other type of support. As we mentioned before, there might also be other items inside the wall (such as plumbing) that will need to be rerouted. Most homeowners do not have the skills to perform this type of work. Don’t risk removing a structural wall without an engineer and the proper permits.
