| I removed the plasterboard from the boxing under the stairs to find that it was purely "decorative", so I removed all the wooden frame. I also found a spotlight hidden above that they obviously no longer wanted, so instead of disconnecting it they simple left it in the ceiling. It was still wired up but no longer live, along with two other wires dangling down inside the stud wall. I then removed the wall which formed part of the hallway, piece by piece, until I had revealed a single supporting beam. All of the rest has now been removed. I removed the flooring and cut out sections where the wall will be built. |
