Free visit
A short visit to Crieff to see the job, agree what you want and check the bearings, floors and services that affect the design.
Calculations
The engineer's calculations and a simple drawing are prepared for your opening and shared with you before anything is ordered.
Building warrant
A building warrant is applied for from Perth and Kinross Council, and work starts only once the warrant has been granted.

On site we prop, open up, fit and pack the steel, then fire protect, box in and plaster once the inspection is done.

Building rules in Crieff
Scottish rules are stricter on timing than in England: the building warrant must be in place before the wall is touched. We prepare the application with the engineer's calculations and submit it to Perth and Kinross Council. The finished work is then certified and a completion certificate submitted for acceptance.
Scotland has no Party Wall Act. Work affecting a shared wall is governed by your title deeds and the general law, and in flats by the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004, so it is sensible to agree the work with neighbours in writing before starting.

Steel beams in Crieff: questions
Do you also work near Crieff?
Yes. We also cover nearby towns including Auchterarder, Dunblane, Alva and Perth.
Do I need a party wall agreement for steel beam installation in Crieff?
There is no Party Wall Act in Scotland. Your title deeds and the general law apply instead, and the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 for flats, so agree the work with your neighbour in writing before it starts.
Do you cover Crieff for steel beam installation?
Yes. We carry out steel beam installation in Crieff and the PH5 and PH7 postcode districts. Book a free survey visit and we will check the wall, arrange the engineer's calculations and send an itemised written quote.
How soon can steel beam installation start in Crieff?
Start dates depend on the engineer's calculations, the building warrant and any agreement needed with neighbours. We give you a realistic timetable after the survey and keep you updated as each approval comes through.
Can you work on older or listed homes in Crieff?
Yes. Older homes often have lime mortar, timber lintels or shallow footings, which the engineer allows for. Listed buildings need listed building consent for internal structural changes as well as building regulations approval, and that must be in place first.
