What happens, step by step
Survey in Rhosllannerchrugog
We visit, look at the wall and what sits above it, measure the opening and note services, access and how the steel can be brought in.
Engineer's design
A structural engineer sizes the beam, padstones and any posts, and sets out the temporary support needed while the wall is out.
Building control
We submit the application or notice to Wrexham County Borough Council under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, before work starts.
Install and sign-off
Props go in, the opening is formed, the steel is set and packed, building control inspects it, and we make good.

Building rules in Rhosllannerchrugog
Welsh building regulations treat beams and new openings as controlled building work. We apply to Wrexham County Borough Council on your behalf before anything is removed, give the commencement notice the 2026 Welsh rules require, and the steel is checked before it is boxed in.
Where the steel bears into a wall shared with next door, notice must be served under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996. If your neighbour dissents, surveyors agree how the work is done before it starts.
