Recent Manchester Projects

We know the local housing stock inside out. Unlike generic online calculators, we understand the specific challenges of Manchester's Victorian terraces and 1930s semis. Here are real examples from our team:

Didsbury (M20)
Steel box frame design for a Victorian terrace open-plan kitchen. The client needed to remove the entire rear wall, requiring a complex moment frame to maintain stability.
Stockport (SK4)
Loft floor strengthening beams for a 1930s semi-detached. We calculated two steel beams to support the new floor joists, ensuring minimal deflection so the ceiling below wouldn't crack.
Salford
Heavy-duty lintel calculations for a 5m bi-fold door opening. This required a Catnic lintel verification to ensure it could carry the roof load without bowing.

FAQs

Do I really need calculations?
Yes. Without them, Building Control will not issue a completion certificate, causing issues when you sell. A proper steel beam calculation ensures your property is safe, insurable, and sellable in the future.
Can you work from photos?
Often yes, for straightforward wall removals. If we can see the direction of the floor joists and the type of wall, we can usually calculate the loads. We will tell you if we need more info.
Do you visit site?
We work remotely to keep costs low (in the £200 range). Site visits are available for complex jobs at extra cost, but 90% of residential beams can be calculated accurately using plans and photos.
