Which rules apply in Hayes?

Here is what usually applies to a Hayes 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.

Questions about ensuite installation in Hayes

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 Hayes do you work in?

All of them, including UB3, UB4, UB8 and UB11, and the surrounding parts of Greater London.

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

With the local council for the address. Councils in England can add additional licensing and Article 4 directions on top of the national rules. Check the council’s website for the exact address before you buy or start work.
