Most of the cost and risk in an HMO is decided at the design stage. In Stapleford we start by measuring every room and checking Broxtowe Borough Council's position on licensing and planning, then build the specification around it.
We cover NG9 and the neighbouring postcodes, with the same standards in Stapleford as anywhere else in Nottinghamshire.

Checked October 2026 against Broxtowe Borough Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
Broxtowe Borough Council's Article 4 direction covers parts of the Beeston wards, not Stapleford, so changing a family house here into a small HMO is usually permitted development. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We couldn't confirm whether Broxtowe Borough Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
HMO conversions in Stapleford: what we do
Our HMO conversion work in Stapleford 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 Stapleford 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.
