Shared houses in Bridgnorth need to satisfy Shropshire Council's licensing team as well as building regulations. We plan for both from the first survey, which avoids rework later.

Checked October 2026 against Shropshire Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
We couldn't confirm Shropshire 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 Shropshire Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
Our HMO conversion service in Bridgnorth
Our HMO conversion work in Bridgnorth 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 Bridgnorth 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 Shropshire with our own team and vetted subcontractors under a single contract.
