Mark Hep Thankyou mate, this was one of many doorways being changed and made! 2 steels been put in also but didn’t have time to record majority of it shamefully! Thanks mark👍🏽🔨🧱

With a solid external wall would you do one side at a time adding a concrete lintel or put a hole straight through and put both lintels in at the same time?

Is that acro just agains a scaffold taking the weight of the joists?

Hi, what mortar mix did you use?

Does this type of work require you to contact building control? Do they have to survey it first to spec what size and type of lintel should be used?

No it doesn’t. & you can easily just use a 4x2 concrete lintel

I've got to replace a rotten concrete window lintel on a exterior ground floor of a house. The replacement lintel will be 39 inch long the same as the one removed so do I really need to buy an Acrow & strong boy or will it be ok to do if I'm really careful without an Acrow & strongboy 🤔

At what point do you remove the strong boy is one prop ok for an opening that size even if it’s a supporting wall thanks

Ian Baulk Hi Ian, I normally take the acro out when all I have left to do is put the last brick in where the acro is mate. This is a 1200mm wife opening so for me 1 acro was sufficient giving roughly 500mm either side of the acro. Obviously the more acros the better but then if you had 2 or 3 on this opening you’d struggle getting many bricks in to start with👍🏽🧱

I’m not sure mate as I didn’t quote but I would take a guess at around 4-500 to plasterboard it up etc👍🏽

If I just needed to fit a lintel on the ground floor level in a supporting wall using a grinder to cut out a slot to fit a 1500 lintel in Would I still need accros and scaff boards either side to prop the ceilings to take weight ?

The Acro (and strongboy) are there to stop the wall above the lintel falling down. I wouldn't recommend trying it without them.

Don't get that level dirty mate
