Client Brief
Our client in the Barn Hill conservation area of Wembley wanted to remove a load-bearing wall to create a modern, open-plan kitchen with more space for new kitchen units and a granite worktops.




We provided structural drawings and calculations, managed the building control process, and installed a structural steel beam to safely remove the internal wall. The kitchen was fully renovated with fitted Wren Kitchen units, Stone World granite worktops, and floor tiling.
Complete structural design and calculations, building control management and approval, wall removal with steel beam installation, Wren kitchen unit fitting, Stone World granite worktop supply and fit, and floor tiling.

Recent Testimonials
We had our chimney breast at both the ground and first floor removed by Chimney Engineering. Yahia was very knowledgeable about the entire process and walked us through very step from the building control application, structural design, the removal of the chimney breasts and installation of the structural steels. We would recommend Chimney Engineering to anyone looking to remove their chimney.
Safi’s team did an excellent job removing a chimney breast between our kitchen and lounge. The work was done quickly, efficiently and to a high standard, with most of the structural changes completed in a week.
Really appreciated the on site guidance from Yahia, who made some last minute changes to help with the next stage of our kitchen renovation. Would definitely recommend!
Sandstone Engineering were great - they came to take down a wall at short notice, and were amenable when I had to move the date back by a week because of illness. A team of them came in and took down the wall in one day, doing all the making good and cleaning up in that time as well. Beautifully done and good value. Recommended!
