Landlords in Bedworth (CV7 and CV12) 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 Bedworth?
EPC and energy upgrades in Bedworth must satisfy national law for England, the council’s written HMO standards and, where walls, drainage or fire separation change, the building rules. In short:
- Rented homes must currently meet at least EPC E, with a £3,500 spending cap. The government plans EPC C by October 2030, subject to legislation.
- Councils can fine up to £7,000 where a Category 1 hazard is not removed when it reasonably could have been.
- A conversion can be a material change of use under the building regulations, so confirm with building control before work starts.
