Shared houses in Shirebrook need to satisfy Bolsover District Council's licensing team as well as building regulations. We plan for both from the first survey, which avoids rework later.
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.

Void and turnaround refurbishment in Shirebrook: what we do
We turn round empty HMO rooms in Shirebrook between tenancies: inspection, repairs, redecoration, a deep clean and safety checks, finished with photos you can use to advertise the room. Each job is quoted per room or per job after we have seen it.
Because tenants can now give notice at any point in the year, voids in Shirebrook are harder to predict. We agree standard finishes and a set checklist with landlords across Derbyshire, so a room can be put right without waiting on decisions.
