Ensuite installation in Windsor

We carry out ensuite installation in Windsor, 16 miles east of Reading, working to the HMO rules that apply in England and to the council’s written HMO standards.

Newly fitted compact ensuite shower room with tiled walls and heated towel rail

An HMO ensuite is a small private shower room, with a WC and basin, built into or next to a letting room. For a house in Windsor we start with a measured survey, check the council’s written HMO standards for the number of sharers, and then price each item separately.

Which rules apply in Windsor?

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 Windsor before we price.

  • Floor area under a ceiling lower than 1.5 m does not count towards the room size, and many councils set larger sizes.
  • National rules ask for an adequate number of bathrooms, WCs and basins and suitably located kitchens; numeric ratios are set by each council.
  • A conversion can be a material change of use under the building regulations, so confirm with building control before work starts.
  • BS 7671, the wiring standard, calls for arc fault detection devices in HMOs on new socket circuits, such as rewires and consumer unit changes.
