The Ossett brief
For an Ossett or Gawthorpe renovation, a wider kitchen or living area may involve several smaller structural changes rather than one simple wall removal. Record chimney breasts, existing openings and previous alterations before choosing the final arrangement. A drawing of the finished room should be supported by an understanding of what is retained.
Preparation guidance, not a survey of your property. The location photograph shows the area; it is not evidence of work by ATR.

Bring to the conversationAll-floor plans and any existing structural drawings.
Why this matters
Give the designer plans of the affected floors and identify visible structural features. Ask what investigation is needed where earlier alterations have concealed the original arrangement.

Bring to the conversationA services survey and the proposed kitchen or room layout.
Why this matters
Locate pipes, cables and heating routes on the walls being changed. Include relocation and making good in the quotation instead of leaving them as assumptions between trades.
