HMO refurbishment in Hednesford: what we do

We refurbish existing HMOs in Hednesford 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 Hednesford house are still let, we phase the work so tenants keep a working kitchen, bathroom and alarm system throughout. For landlords across Staffordshire, each job ends with updated certificates and photos ready to send to the council.

What landlords in Hednesford ask us

Can you work on a house I haven't bought yet in Hednesford?

Yes. We can survey before you buy and tell you the likely room count, the planning and licensing position and a guide cost, so you can decide with the facts in front of you.

How long does an HMO conversion in Hednesford 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 Hednesford?

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. Cannock Chase District Council may set additional standards, which we design to.

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

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