An HMO ensuite is a small private shower room, with a WC and basin, built into or next to a letting room. Landlords in Mitcham (CR4, SM4 and SW19) 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 Mitcham?
The rules below are the England-wide position for this kind of work. Councils add their own standards and schemes on top, so we always check the address in Mitcham before we price.
- Floor area under a ceiling lower than 1.5 m does not count towards the room size, and many councils set larger sizes.
- Council standards often step up at 5 and 6 sharers, for example a separate WC at 5 and a second bathroom from 6.
- Building regulations cover structural changes, new partitions, ensuite drainage, fire-resisting construction and notifiable electrical work.
- 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 Mitcham
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 Mitcham do you work in?
All of them, including CR4, SM4 and SW19, and the surrounding parts of Greater London.
Where do I check the HMO rules for an address in Mitcham?
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.
