The Almondbury brief
For an older Almondbury property, record the details to retain before designing a new kitchen, opening or extension. A house in Dalton or Waterloo may present a different set of construction questions. Base the specification on a survey of the actual building and its planning history.
Preparation guidance, not a survey of your property. The location photograph shows the area; it is not evidence of work by ATR.
HD5 / 01
Name the features that matter
Bring to the conversationA retained-feature schedule and property designation records.
Why this matters
Photograph windows, fireplaces, joinery and external stone details and mark them on the scope. Check relevant conservation and listing information before committing to alteration or replacement.
HD5 / 02
Align the proposed structure and services
Bring to the conversationProposed plans with structural openings and service positions.
Why this matters
Show new openings alongside kitchen and bathroom positions. Ask the designer to coordinate supports, ventilation and drainage so structural decisions do not create awkward service routes later.
