    Hey would anyone have an idea to remove a window and replace with sliding door in cork.

    The house is a 3 bed semi if this helps. Also should I be worried about anything here such as structural issues by removing the window which is large enough but not the width of a double door.

    Cheers

    Take out window.
    Support upper walls.
    Remover lower walls.
    Remove existing lintel.
    Replace with new longer lintel. If within the limits of standard lintels, it should be a straight forward swap. Get engineer to inspect if before and after if worried.
    5-7k maybe ish?

    Thanks for the information, this would definitely put it out of reach for me so may knock it on the head now :). Thanks
