Which rules apply in Heston?

Here is what usually applies to a Heston 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.
  • Council standards often step up at 5 and 6 sharers, for example a separate WC at 5 and a second bathroom from 6.
  • 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 Heston

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.

Yes. We work across Heston and the TW3, TW5 and UB2 postcode areas, plus the rest of Greater London. Nearby places we also cover include Hounslow, Isleworth, Southall.

Does a shared house in Heston 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.
