A shared bathroom refit replaces worn or failing bathrooms in an HMO with hard-wearing, easy-clean ones: good extraction, waterproofing, thermostatic showers and finishes that stand up to several users a day. Aberdeen is in Scotland. We price shared bathroom and shower room refits there against Scotland’s HMO rules and the council’s written HMO standards, so work is planned to the standard an inspection looks for. With students as well as working sharers renting in Aberdeen, we plan bigger jobs for the gap between academic-year tenancies where we can.
