An HMO in Alfreton has to work for three audiences: the council, the people who live there and the owner's figures. We design with all three in mind and price the result in writing.
We cover DE55 and the neighbouring postcodes, with the same standards in Alfreton as anywhere else in Derbyshire.

Checked October 2026 against Amber Valley Borough Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
We couldn't confirm Amber Valley Borough Council's Article 4 position from its own website, so we check it with the council for the address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We couldn't confirm whether Amber Valley Borough Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
En-suite installation in Alfreton: what we do
We fit en-suite shower rooms in HMO bedrooms across Alfreton, starting with a check that each bedroom still meets its size standard once the en-suite is built. Councils take different views on whether en-suite floor area counts, so we confirm the local position first.
Older houses often have joists running the wrong way and soil stacks in fixed positions, so in Alfreton we check the drainage route under the floor before quoting. Every en-suite we fit in Derbyshire is finished with a ducted fan, certified electrics and fire stopping.
- Shower, toilet, basin and wipe-clean wall finish fitted
- Electrical work tested and certified
- Fire stopping where pipes pass through floors and walls
- Extract fan ducted to outside with overrun control
- Bedroom measured to confirm it still meets size standards
