Most of the cost and risk in an HMO is decided at the design stage. In Pershore we start by measuring every room and checking Wychavon District Council's position on licensing and planning, then build the specification around it.
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.

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