An HMO ensuite is a small private shower room, with a WC and basin, built into or next to a letting room. Landlords in Huntingdon (PE26, PE27, PE28 and PE29) 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 Huntingdon?
Here is what usually applies to a Huntingdon job of this kind. It is general information rather than legal advice, and the council’s written HMO standards have the final detail.
- 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.
- 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.

Questions about ensuite installation in Huntingdon
Does an ensuite count towards the room size?
No. The ensuite area is normally excluded when the bedroom is measured, so the remaining room must still meet the size standard.
Do you cover all of Huntingdon?
Yes. We work across Huntingdon and the PE26, PE27, PE28 and PE29 postcode areas, plus the rest of Cambridgeshire. Nearby places we also cover include Saint Neots, Cambridge, Peterborough.
Does a shared house in Huntingdon need an HMO licence?
In England, a mandatory licence is needed for 5 or more people from 2 or more households. Smaller HMOs can need a licence where the council runs additional licensing, which is common in towns with many shared houses. Check the council’s website for the address.
