Hi folks, hopefully someone has a very easy answer to this... We are about to remove 2 chimney breasts that are situated on the side of our house - they make for odd shaped rooms and as we've halved our space with a recent downsize, along with damp coming through, it seems like the easiest option. However, we will then need to remedy the floor joist situation in 2 bedrooms. Will it be as simple as adding joists and bolting them securely to the existing ones using metal plates or is there something else we would need to consider? :p Thanks in anticipation!
