Questions about HMO kitchen and bathroom in Shirebrook

Can you convert part of a building above a shop in Shirebrook?

Often, yes. Flats above shops need extra attention to fire separation from the commercial unit, and we assess this at survey stage.

Does a converted HMO in Shirebrook need a licence?

Yes if five or more people from two or more households will live there, because mandatory licensing applies in every council in England. Bolsover District Council may also license smaller HMOs, which we check for the address.

Do you supply fire doors and alarms as part of a conversion?

Yes. Fire doors, the alarm system and emergency lighting are specified to the fire risk of the house and included in the price, not added later.

Do you handle building regulations for conversions in Shirebrook?

Yes. An HMO conversion often involves building regulations work such as fire protection, new partitions and drainage, and we arrange approval and inspections with local authority building control or a registered building control approver.
