Services / Structural alterations
Internal wall removal, steel beams and open-plan layouts for Kildare homes. Fixed-price wall removal from €8,800 inc VAT, engineer certified, built by our own crews.
Structural alterations
Most Kildare houses were built with a separate kitchen, dining room and living room. Taking out the wall between them is the single biggest change you can make to how the house feels, and it is a lot less work than an extension.
SureHome has been removing walls and installing steel in Kildare homes since 2001. We protect the house, prop it, put in a correctly sized steel beam, make good and plaster, and hand you the engineer’s certificate at the end. Our own crew, one fixed price.
Structural work we take on
From €8,800 inc VAT for a load-bearing internal wall up to 3.5 metres long and 2.5 metres high. Here is exactly what that covers.
Before
Safety first
Nothing comes down until the house is protected and properly supported.
The steel
Sized for your house
A rolled steel joist carries the load the wall used to, sized for your span, not an off-the-shelf guess.
Finish
Ready for your decorator
Where the wall met the floor, ceiling and walls is filled, patched and plastered so you cannot tell it was ever there.
Walls longer than 3.5 metres, higher than 2.5 metres, or openings that need more than one beam are quoted individually after a site visit.
Most wall removals happen alongside a new kitchen, a renovation or an extension. We quote the whole job as one programme with one price.
Every structural job follows the same four steps, and every step is agreed in writing before the next one starts.
Tell us roughly what you have in mind and we give you a realistic budget figure on the first call, before any site visit.
If the figure suits, we call out, measure the work area and take detailed notes of exactly what you want from the space.
Within two weeks you receive a detailed written quotation. Any changes to the scope are agreed before anything is signed.
A services agreement sets out the final scope, a week-by-week programme with a completion date and a payment schedule tied to it. The final 5% isn’t due until 30 days after completion. Then we book your dates.
Certified and compliant
Structural work is not the place to cut corners. Every job is propped, built and certified properly, and you get the documents you will need when you sell or remortgage.

You often cannot tell by looking. We check at the site visit and tell you straight. Non-load-bearing walls are simpler and cheaper to remove; load-bearing walls need propping and a steel beam, which is what the €8,800 package covers.
Internal alterations that do not change the outside of the house do not normally need planning permission. The work still has to meet building regulations, which is why every wall removal is engineer certified on completion.
No. Sizing the beam and certifying the work on completion are part of the package.
It depends on the wall and the making good needed afterwards. Your services agreement sets out the programme and the dates before we start.
Less than you would expect. The work area is sealed off and your furniture protected before we start, and the site is tidied at the end of every day.
