HMO refurbishment in Grantham: what we do

We refurbish existing HMOs in Grantham that have fallen behind current standards, whether the prompt is a licence renewal, a council inspection or rooms that have become hard to let. The survey splits the work into safety, licence and optional items so the priorities are clear.

Where rooms in a Grantham house are still let, we phase the work so tenants keep a working kitchen, bathroom and alarm system throughout. For landlords across Lincolnshire, each job ends with updated certificates and photos ready to send to the council.

What landlords in Grantham ask us

How long does an HMO conversion in Grantham take?

It depends on the size of the house and the work involved. Your written quote includes a programme for each stage, and any planning or licensing time is shown separately.

What size must bedrooms be in an HMO in Grantham?

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. South Kesteven District Council may set additional standards, which we design to.

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.

Does a converted HMO in Grantham 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. South Kesteven District Council may also license smaller HMOs, which we check for the address.
