An HMO bedroom upgrade refits a letting room so it is more comfortable and easier to let: built-in storage, a proper desk space, better lighting and sockets, sound-reducing doors, durable flooring and fresh decoration. Isleworth is 10 miles west of London. We price bedroom upgrades and room refits there against England’s HMO rules and the council’s written HMO standards, so work is planned to the standard an inspection looks for.

Which rules apply in Isleworth?
The rules below are the England-wide position for this kind of work. Councils add their own standards and schemes on top, so we always check the address in Isleworth before we price.
- Licensed HMOs must meet national minimum bedroom sizes: 6.51 m² for one person aged 10 or over, 10.22 m² for two, and 4.64 m² for a child under 10.
- Smoke alarms on every storey with living accommodation and CO alarms by fixed combustion appliances (other than gas cookers) are required by law.
- 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.
- Floor area under a ceiling lower than 1.5 m does not count towards the room size, and many councils set larger sizes.
