Which rules apply in Doncaster?
Here is what usually applies to a Doncaster job of this kind. It is general information rather than legal advice, and the council’s written HMO standards have the final detail.
- 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.
- Licences last up to 5 years and carry conditions on gas and electrical safety, alarms, room sizes and waste.
- BS 7671, the wiring standard, calls for arc fault detection devices in HMOs on new socket circuits, such as rewires and consumer unit changes.
