About the job

I have a brick exterior wall that currently holds a window. I already know this wall is load-bearing, and I do not need help confirming that; what I need is a qualified professional who can safely remove the necessary section, carry the load correctly, and leave me with a cleanly framed opening for a standard single door. The job covers everything from temporary shoring through to the final trim: • Calculate and install the appropriate lintel or steel beam so the structure remains sound. • Remove the brickwork around the existing window, widen as required, and dispose of debris. • Frame, plumb, and square the new opening for a single door, ready for my chosen door unit. • Make good on internal and external finishes so the new doorway blends with the surrounding wall. Local code compliance, tidy workmanship, and a clear schedule are essential. If this is squarely in your wheelhouse and you have recent examples of similar structural conversions, I’m ready to review your plan and get started.
