Most of the cost and risk in an HMO is decided at the design stage. In Coalville we start by measuring every room and checking North West Leicestershire District Council's position on licensing and planning, then build the specification around it.

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.

How we handle HMO loft conversion work in Coalville

Plenty of houses have roof space that could hold extra bedrooms, but in Coalville we always measure the headroom first, because floor under a 1.5 m ceiling does not count towards room size. That tells you how many rooms the loft can really add.

A loft room usually creates a third storey, so we plan the protected escape route and alarm upgrades for the whole Coalville house, not just the new floor. We also check the occupant count, because seven or more residents needs planning permission anywhere in Leicestershire.
