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. Rosyth is 11 miles north-west of Edinburgh. We price ensuite installation there against Scotland’s HMO rules and the council’s written HMO standards, so work is planned to the standard an inspection looks for.

The rules below are the Scotland-wide position for this kind of work. Councils add their own standards and schemes on top, so we always check the address in Rosyth before we price.

  • Room sizes are set by each council; East Lothian, for example, uses 6.5 m² for a single room with a shared lounge and kitchen, and 10 m² without.
  • Kitchen, WC and bathroom ratios come from council standards; one WC and one bath or shower per 5 people is a common figure.
  • A building warrant may be needed for a change of use or for installing a fire alarm system; check with the council’s building standards service.
  • An EICR before the first let and at least every 5 years, with C1 and C2 items fixed, PAT testing of supplied appliances and RCD protection.

Questions about ensuite installation in Rosyth

Can an ensuite go anywhere?

It needs a route for waste water. Gravity drainage is best; where that is not possible, a macerator or pump can work. We check at the survey.

Which postcodes in Rosyth do you work in?

All of them, including KY11, and the surrounding parts of Fife.

Where do I check the HMO rules for an address in Rosyth?

With the local council for the address. Scottish councils set their own HMO licence standards and planning policies. Every HMO needs a licence, so check the council’s standards before you design the layout.
