If the property is in Ledbury, the council that matters is Herefordshire Council. We look up its current schemes for the address, note any conditions it usually attaches, and plan the work to suit.
We'll tell you plainly if a house in Ledbury isn't suited to the number of rooms you have in mind, and what it would take to make it work.

Checked October 2026 against Herefordshire Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
We couldn't confirm Herefordshire 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 Herefordshire Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
Our HMO en-suite installation service in Ledbury
We fit en-suite shower rooms in HMO bedrooms across Ledbury, 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 Ledbury we check the drainage route under the floor before quoting. Every en-suite we fit in Herefordshire is finished with a ducted fan, certified electrics and fire stopping.
- Shower, toilet, basin and wipe-clean wall finish fitted
- Extract fan ducted to outside with overrun control
- Fire stopping where pipes pass through floors and walls
- Drainage route checked under the floor at survey
- Electrical work tested and certified
