Builder? Architect? Who?

Mar 30, 2006 8 Replies

Hi,



I live in an apartment in Leeds with a mezzanine level over the main living space accessed via a spiral staircase. I want to turn the mezzanine into to a self-contained room, by adding a glass wall and a door.



Who would I contact to address this type of work? A builder? An Architect? Any recommendations?



Many thanks, Colin



Is *what* a cryptic clue?

Well it looks like one

You might not be able to, if the spiral stair descends into the main living space, as that would make it classed as an internal room, which would have additional fire escape requirements.

A building control officer at the local council, initially. If you then know what you want and how you are going to satisfy Building Regs then an architectural technician or plan-drawer will be able to produce the plans needed for BCO. You can then get builders to quote against those plans.

If by 'glass wall' you mean a glass wall, and not glass bricks, then one of the commercial office partitioning companies might be worth exploring.

Doesn't sound as if one should Google for it...
