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

We couldn't confirm whether Bolsover District Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
HMO floor plans in Shirebrook: what we do
