Outstanding job from the guys at Percy Works! Had to shut off the water supply because of the pipe that had burst, but in no time at all they had it resolved & even made the effort of cleaning the water that spilled all through the house.

Frequently Asked Questions
To remodel your home is sometimes a more challenging task than building a new one. Experts know that building refurbishment projects can only be done by the best-skilled building contractors. These experienced builders for home remodelling in your local area can be found, right here on Snupit.
Can I break down any wall in my house?
You can’t break down any wall. Before you make such a change you should consider the following:
- Is the wall a load-bearing wall?
- What will the cost be? Costs may vary due to parts of the infrastructure that may be in the wall, for example, electrical cables, plumbing or fixtures.
- How will this remodel affect the rest of your house?
- Will this increase your property value?
Knocking down walls in your home is a permanent decision so careful planning must be done.
How do I determine if a wall Is load bearing?
Have you ever heard of the term ‘load bearing’ when it comes to building refurbishments? Load bearing walls carry the weight of your home’s roof or second floors above them.
Knocking out a load bearing wall can cause your home to collapse. You can easily determine whether a wall is load bearing or not by following these simple guidelines:
- If the wall is hollow, it is an obvious sign that it bears no load.
- Are there wood or metal beams held up by the wall? If so, the wall is load bearing.
- If you have access to enter the ceiling of your home, you can easily spot where roof trusses are supported by walls. This can show if the wall is load bearing or not.
- Studying most recent house plans can indicate which walls are load bearing.
- Get an architect to inspect your house plans if you don’t know how to read them. Make sure the plans are updated accordingly because remodelling in the past could have resulted in changes to the layout.
- If your building plans aren’t available, get a building inspector to determine if the wall is load bearing or not.
Is there a way to knock down a load bearing wall?
There are many ways to go about knocking down a load bearing wall. Use appropriate SABS approved materials and tools and follow the NHBRC (National Home Builders Registration Council) regulations.
Following these guidelines will assist you with knocking down a wall during your building refurbishment process:
- Using concrete lintels to bear the load after the wall is gone.
- Steel beams can be installed to bear the load of the wall.
- Remove the load above the wall by remodelling the structure of your home.
- Replace the wall with columns to support the load.
