Most of the cost and risk in an HMO is decided at the design stage. In Melton Mowbray we start by measuring every room and checking Melton Borough Council's position on licensing and planning, then build the specification around it.

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.

Questions about HMO void refurbishment in Melton Mowbray

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

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.

Does a converted HMO in Melton Mowbray need a licence?

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

Do you supply fire doors and alarms as part of a conversion?

Yes. Fire doors, the alarm system and emergency lighting are specified to the fire risk of the house and included in the price, not added later.

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. Melton Borough Council may set additional standards, which we design to.
