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. Landlords in Camborne (TR14) 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 Camborne?

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

  • National rules ask for an adequate number of bathrooms, WCs and basins and suitably located kitchens; numeric ratios are set by each council.
  • Councils can fine up to £7,000 where a Category 1 hazard is not removed when it reasonably could have been.
  • Electrical installations must be inspected and tested at least every 5 years; remedial work is due within 28 days, or sooner if the report says so.
