HMO projects in Market Drayton are shaped by the rules of Shropshire Council. Before we price anything, we check whether the address falls within an additional licensing scheme or an Article 4 direction, because both change what the house needs and how long it takes.

Our team is based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 34 miles from Market Drayton. That keeps survey visits, site meetings and follow-up inspections easy to arrange.

What landlords in Market Drayton ask us

Do I need planning permission to convert a house to an HMO in Market Drayton?

It depends on the number of occupants and whether Shropshire Council has an Article 4 direction covering the address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We check the position for your street before quoting.

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.

Can you convert part of a building above a shop in Market Drayton?

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

What size must bedrooms be in an HMO in Market Drayton?

For licensed HMOs in England a room for one adult must be at least 6.51 square metres and a room for two adults at least 10.22 square metres. Shropshire Council may set additional standards, which we design to.
