HMO projects in Swadlincote are shaped by the rules of South Derbyshire District Council. Before we price anything, we check whether the address falls within an additional licensing scheme or an Article 4 direction, because both change what the house needs and how long it takes.
Work is carried out by S&K and vetted subcontractors working under S&K's supervision, so you contract with one company for the whole project.

Our HMO en-suite installation service in Swadlincote
We fit en-suite shower rooms in HMO bedrooms across Swadlincote, 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 Swadlincote 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.
