Landlords in Long Eaton deal with Erewash Borough Council for licensing, planning and housing standards. We keep those three in view together, so a layout that suits the licence also works for planning and building control.
You get one point of contact for the whole job, a fixed price for the agreed specification and a written programme showing when each stage happens.

Erewash Borough Council has confirmed an Article 4 direction covering Ilkeston, most of Long Eaton and parts of Sandiacre and Sawley, due to start on 6 March 2027. Whether a house in Long Eaton is inside the boundary is something we check for the exact address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission.

En-suite installation for Long Eaton landlords
We fit en-suite shower rooms in HMO bedrooms across Long Eaton, 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 Long Eaton 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.
- Bedroom measured to confirm it still meets size standards
- Shower, toilet, basin and wipe-clean wall finish fitted
- Fire stopping where pipes pass through floors and walls
- Extract fan ducted to outside with overrun control
