Which rules apply in Deeside?
Rewires and EICR remedials in Deeside must satisfy national law for Wales, the council’s written HMO standards and, where walls, drainage or fire separation change, the building rules. In short:
- An electrical inspection and test at least every 5 years, with the report given to the contract-holder within 14 days.
- Mandatory licence for HMOs with 3 or more storeys and 5 or more people in 2 or more households; Wales did not adopt England’s 2018 change.
- Councils such as Cardiff and Swansea run additional licensing for HMOs outside the mandatory scheme.
- Landlords must register with Rent Smart Wales, and those who manage their own lets need a Rent Smart Wales licence.
