Large HMO conversions for Bromyard landlords

For larger houses and buildings in Bromyard, we assess whether an HMO for seven or more people is realistic before any design money is spent. That means checking local planning policy, the structure, the escape routes and how many kitchens and bathrooms the occupancy would need.

If the scheme works, we prepare the planning drawings, agree the fire strategy with building control and build floor by floor. It suits bigger properties in Bromyard and across Herefordshire where a six-bedroom layout would leave usable space empty.

  • Floor-by-floor build programme with building control inspections
  • Planning drawings and room schedule for the application
  • Kitchens and bathrooms sized to council amenity standards
  • Fire strategy agreed with building control at the start
  • Feasibility check of the building, layout and planning policy

What landlords in Bromyard ask us

Does a converted HMO in Bromyard 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. Herefordshire Council may also license smaller HMOs, which we check for the address.

What size must bedrooms be in an HMO in Bromyard?

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. Herefordshire Council may set additional standards, which we design to.

How long does an HMO conversion in Bromyard 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.

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

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