HMO floor plans in Bewdley: common questions

Do HMOs in Bewdley need a fire risk assessment?

Fire safety law requires a fire risk assessment of the common parts of most HMOs, and councils commonly ask to see one with a licence application. We arrange the assessment and the works it recommends.

Who issues HMO licences in Bewdley?

Wyre Forest District Council is the licensing authority for Bewdley. We prepare the application and supporting documents, and the council decides whether to grant the licence and on what conditions.

Can you fix the issues a council inspection found?

Yes. We price the works on the inspection report, carry them out and provide the evidence the council asks for.

How often are electrical checks needed in an HMO?

Private tenancies in England need an electrical installation condition report before the tenancy starts and at least every five years, and gas appliances need a safety check by a Gas Safe registered engineer every 12 months.
