An HMO in Narborough 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 cover LE9 and the neighbouring postcodes, with the same standards in Narborough as anywhere else in Leicestershire.

Checked October 2026 against Blaby District Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
We couldn't confirm Blaby 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 Blaby District Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
How we handle HMO fire safety work in Narborough
We carry out HMO fire safety works in Narborough to a written specification taken from the fire risk assessment and the local council's HMO standards. That keeps the work proportionate, because a small two-storey house and a large three-storey one in Narborough rarely need the same measures.
Typical jobs in Narborough include fire doors with self-closers, interlinked alarms, emergency lighting and fire stopping of hidden gaps. Every job across Leicestershire ends with commissioning certificates, photos of concealed work and a logbook for routine tests.
- Mains-wired interlinked smoke and heat detection
- Fire doors fitted with self-closers, seals and correct gaps
- Emergency lighting where the escape route needs it
- Commissioning certificates, logbook and photos of concealed work
