HMO projects in Coleshill are shaped by the rules of North Warwickshire Borough 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.

We cover B46 and the neighbouring postcodes, with the same standards in Coleshill as anywhere else in Warwickshire.

How we handle HMO loft conversion work in Coleshill

Plenty of houses have roof space that could hold extra bedrooms, but in Coleshill 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 Coleshill house, not just the new floor. We also check the occupant count, because seven or more residents needs planning permission anywhere in Warwickshire.
