HMO projects in Bromsgrove are shaped by the rules of Bromsgrove District Council. Before we price anything, we check whether the address falls within an additional licensing scheme or an Article 4 direction, because both change what the house needs and how long it takes.
We can keep a photographic record of each stage, which is useful evidence when the council inspects or a buyer's surveyor asks questions later.

Our large HMO conversion service in Bromsgrove
For larger houses and buildings in Bromsgrove, 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 Bromsgrove and across Worcestershire where a six-bedroom layout would leave usable space empty.
- Fire strategy agreed with building control at the start
- Kitchens and bathrooms sized to council amenity standards
- Floor-by-floor build programme with building control inspections
- Handover file prepared for the mandatory licence
