What landlords in Dronfield ask us

How long does an HMO conversion in Dronfield 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 Dronfield?

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

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

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

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

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.
