Hi,

can anyone tell me if those two columns found in the Mattamy Croftside kitchens are load bearing?

I've never seen a load baring coloum in any subdivision home but if you want to be sure go in the basement and look below if it's built up.

Look under the counter in the base cabinets to see if the vertical load is carried to the floor. If not, it's strictly ornamental. If so, take some measurements to see if it lines up with a basement post or wall, like ^^ above said.

Hi sorry I know this is a very old post, but what is the answer to the original question. Are the columns in fact hiding support posts?

Thanks so much for the response.

Good question.
See above.
