Large HMO conversions for Louth landlords

For larger houses and buildings in Louth, 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 Louth and across Lincolnshire where a six-bedroom layout would leave usable space empty.

Large HMO conversions in Louth: common questions

Do you handle building regulations for conversions in Louth?

Yes. An HMO conversion often involves building regulations work such as fire protection, new partitions and drainage, and we arrange approval and inspections with local authority building control or a registered building control approver.

Yes if five or more people from two or more households will live there, because mandatory licensing applies in every council in England. East Lindsey District Council may also license smaller HMOs, which we check for the address.

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.

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. East Lindsey District Council may set additional standards, which we design to.
