Can You Move Structural Walls in a Home?

It is possible to move structural walls, also known as load-bearing walls, during your main floor renovations. However, it is essential to note that careful planning is required in order to do this. There may also be some limitations when it comes to moving structural walls.

Professional Assessment Is Key

Before moving any kind of load-bearing wall, you need to get a professional assessment done by a structural engineer. They will inspect the property and determine how to redistribute the load safely. Usually, adding some kind of beams or posts will help provide the support needed. 

Permits and Qualified Contractors

When making changes to load-bearing walls or structures, you will be required to obtain a permit from your local municipality. This will ensure that your home renovations meet local safety standards. While this may seem tedious, it is wise to get a second opinion on your renovations to ensure that they are entirely safe. This can prevent costly damage down the line.

Why You Need to Work with A Reputable Contractor

When it comes to any kind of full home remodelling, especially one that involves moving structural walls, you need to work with an experienced team. Moving a load-bearing wall requires so much more than just demolition. It requires reframing and potentially rerouting plumbing and electrical lines. Licensed contractors with experience in structural work ensure every step is done safely and correctly.

high quality standard

Our family recently had the privilege of working with Rose Building Group for a kitchen/bathroom/laundry renovation and couldn’t be more satisfied with both the process and the final product. The RGB team and their trade specialists are exceptionally talented at their crafts and very conscientious. The project was completed efficiently, to a high quality standard and the entire team was an absolute pleasure to work with. Special shout out to Neil for being such a first-class professional and always leaving us feeling like our home was in the best of hands. We are so grateful we found RGB and can’t recommend them enough.

nothing but great things to say

Matthew, Settle and entire team were so professional and Alisha, the selections coordinator, was especially helpful and went out of her way to help with some of the finishing choices.

Other than a few things that were delayed beyond their control, this renovation was completed in a very timely manner and is absolutely beautiful. They made our vision come to fruition and we hope to use them again when we are ready to renovate our main bathroom. They made the process of doing a major renovation relatively low stress and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to do a major renovation.

Great job RBG- you were all awesome!

We Couldn’t Be Happier with Our Renovation!

It is a pleasure to offer a review of the Rose Building Group and Matthew Rose upon the completion of our whole home renovation in the fall of 2020. Despite many challenging circumstances that were not of his making Matthew remained focused, solution oriented and delivered a superior result on time. He maintained open, honest, clear and responsive communication and made himself available to answer any questions. The team from RBG was skilled, hardworking, polite and respectful. Similarly, the skilled trades that were subcontracted by Matthew were careful, thorough and demonstrated excellent quality work.

Our home is where we live out the heart of our family and we are grateful for all that Matthew and his team accomplished for us. Thank you!
