An HMO in Lutterworth 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'll tell you plainly if a house in Lutterworth isn't suited to the number of rooms you have in mind, and what it would take to make it work.

We couldn't confirm Harborough District 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 Harborough District Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
En-suite installation for Lutterworth landlords
We fit en-suite shower rooms in HMO bedrooms across Lutterworth, 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 Lutterworth we check the drainage route under the floor before quoting. Every en-suite we fit in Leicestershire is finished with a ducted fan, certified electrics and fire stopping.
- Electrical work tested and certified
- 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
- Drainage route checked under the floor at survey
