Working in Leeds: what we plan for

Leeds has the largest concentrated student housing market outside London, with the Headingley/Hyde Park 'student belt' turning over almost entirely in early July. Local property mix: Back-to-back and through terraces across LS6, large family homes in Roundhay and Chapel Allerton, new-build city-centre flats around the South Bank.

Leeds City Council operates Selective Licensing in parts of LS6, Beeston and Harehills.

What's included

From a single picture shelf to a wall of storage, we fit shelves with fixings rated to the load — and we measure twice so they're level across the room.

  • Floating and bracketed shelves
  • Heavy-duty fixings
  • Level alignment guaranteed
  • Tidy-up included
