Good day Removing a bearing wall in a condo needs a clean structural answer that the permit office, building management, and contractor can all trust. I can assess the kitchen/dining wall, confirm the load path, and provide a safe build plan for the renovation. My team has strong experience with condo renovations, structural steel/wood beam design, wall removal, temporary shoring, load transfer, connection details, civil/structural engineering, and permit documentation. We will review the existing layout, photos, framing direction, wall length, ceiling/floor conditions, and any condo association requirements. From there, we will determine the correct beam/header solution, post locations, bearing points, and installation sequence so the work can be built safely. The final package can include structural notes, calculations, stamped drawings if required, beam/post details, temporary support guidance, and a contractor-friendly plan for the building permit. I can handle this carefully and efficiently, and I would be glad to become your long-term structural partner for future renovation projects.
