Mansfield sits within Mansfield District Council, which sets its own HMO standards for room sizes, kitchens and bathrooms. Our designs start from those standards, so the layout we price is designed to meet the council's licensing requirements.
Because we also manage and maintain HMOs, we design with day-to-day running in mind: hard-wearing finishes, sensible storage and layouts that keep shared spaces usable.

We couldn't confirm Mansfield 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 found no additional licensing scheme in force in Mansfield District Council, so the mandatory licence for five or more people is the main one to plan for.
How we handle HMO conversion work in Mansfield
Our HMO conversion work in Mansfield starts with a measured survey and a check of the planning and licensing rules that apply to the street. We design the room layout, shared facilities and escape route around those rules, then price the agreed specification in an itemised written quote.
Two houses in Mansfield that look alike from outside can give different room counts once the kitchen, stairs and bathrooms are measured. We give you a realistic number early, then build across Nottinghamshire with our own team and vetted subcontractors under a single contract.
