The actual cost of each doorway widening project was probably only around $100 because they werenât weight baring walls (itâs actually a super easy job that we now could do ourselves-google around for a tutorial if youâre a DIY lover!). Good luck!
I understand you want to widen some windows in your house, not lower them. Here in the NorthEast when you widen a window you have to enlarge the beam above the opening to accomadate the new size. This work is costly and reqyures a permit. Lowering windows is much cheaper as you can work under the existing beam.Widening a brick opening is the most costly.our project tops the list in cost. Masonry with both cuts (one left & right)and a longer iron angle to hold up the brick would cost 2,000. The interior carpentry to open the interior wall and put a new longer beam in place, install the new window and build a new jamb and wood work it would be another 2,000.
