The Burley brief
For a conversion or refurbishment around Burley Road and lower Woodhouse, consider the relationship between the building entrance, the pavement and the upper floors. A generous room upstairs does not necessarily have a practical route for new equipment, long materials or an accessible entrance.
Preparation guidance, not a survey of your property. The location photograph shows the area; it is not evidence of work by ATR.
LS3 / 01
Trace the largest delivery
Bring to the conversationStair and doorway dimensions, plus the proposed equipment schedule.
Why this matters
Measure doors, stair turns and landings against the largest proposed item. Check whether the design depends on removing a window, changing an opening or using lifting equipment before that route is included in the price.
LS3 / 02
Check the proposed use independently
Bring to the conversationPrevious decisions and a description of who will occupy each floor.
Why this matters
Keep a record of the existing authorised use and compare it with the intended accommodation or business. For shared housing, consult Leeds HMO guidance as well as the planning history; internal refurbishment alone does not settle use.
The address matters
