An HMO in Eastwood has to work for three audiences: the council, the people who live there and the owner's figures. We design with all three in mind and price the result in writing.
You get one point of contact for the whole job, a fixed price for the agreed specification and a written programme showing when each stage happens.

Broxtowe Borough Council's Article 4 direction covers parts of the Beeston wards, not Eastwood, so changing a family house here into a small HMO is usually permitted development. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We couldn't confirm whether Broxtowe Borough Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
How we handle large HMO conversion work in Eastwood
For larger houses and buildings in Eastwood, 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 Eastwood and across Nottinghamshire where a six-bedroom layout would leave usable space empty.
- Floor-by-floor build programme with building control inspections
- Feasibility check of the building, layout and planning policy
- Handover file prepared for the mandatory licence
- Kitchens and bathrooms sized to council amenity standards
- Planning drawings and room schedule for the application
