The Barkerend brief
For a terrace renovation in Barkerend, Bradford Moor or Thornbury, look at circulation and service routes before adding rooms or moving facilities. A narrow plan can become difficult to use when a new bathroom, staircase alteration or kitchen layout takes space from the route through the house.
Preparation guidance, not a survey of your property. The location photograph shows the area; it is not evidence of work by ATR.
BD3 / 01
Measure circulation, not only room area
Bring to the conversationA measured plan showing doors, stairs and fixed fittings.
Why this matters
Draw door swings, stairs and the passage to the rear. Discuss how furniture, occupants and maintenance access will move through the proposed layout before finalising partitions.
BD3 / 02
Coordinate the wet rooms
Bring to the conversationService positions and photographs of accessible drainage connections.
Why this matters
Identify the existing soil stack and the route for proposed kitchen and bathroom drainage. Ask which connections need investigation before assuming a new room can be placed anywhere upstairs.
The address matters
