Co-living HMO refurbs in Salisbury

Landlords in Salisbury (SP1 and SP5) usually come to us with a council letter, a fire risk assessment or a house they have just bought. We price from whichever you have.

Which rules apply in Salisbury?

Here is what usually applies to a Salisbury job of this kind. It is general information rather than legal advice, and the council’s written HMO standards have the final detail.

Mandatory HMO licence for 5 or more people in 2 or more households (since October 2018); councils can add additional licensing for smaller HMOs.
Floor area under a ceiling lower than 1.5 m does not count towards the room size, and many councils set larger sizes.
Council standards often step up at 5 and 6 sharers, for example a separate WC at 5 and a second bathroom from 6.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 applies to the common parts of HMOs, enforced by the fire and rescue authority.
