Ensuite installation in Llanelli 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:

  • England’s national room sizes do not apply in Wales; councils set their own room standards.
  • Kitchen and bathroom ratios are set in each council’s HMO standards.
  • Building regulations cover structural work, partitions, drainage, fire-resisting construction and electrics; confirm with building control whether the conversion is a material change of use.
  • An electrical inspection and test at least every 5 years, with the report given to the contract-holder within 14 days.
