Whether a house in Beeston needs planning permission to become a small HMO depends on whether it is inside that boundary, which we check for the exact address. 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.
Our HMO fire safety service in Beeston
We carry out HMO fire safety works in Beeston 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 Beeston rarely need the same measures.
Typical jobs in Beeston include fire doors with self-closers, interlinked alarms, emergency lighting and fire stopping of hidden gaps. Every job across Nottinghamshire ends with commissioning certificates, photos of concealed work and a logbook for routine tests.
