Which rules apply in Putney?
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 Putney 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.
- National rules ask for an adequate number of bathrooms, WCs and basins and suitably located kitchens; numeric ratios are set by each council.
- Building regulations cover structural changes, new partitions, ensuite drainage, fire-resisting construction and notifiable electrical work.
- Electrical installations must be inspected and tested at least every 5 years; remedial work is due within 28 days, or sooner if the report says so.

Questions about ensuite installation in Putney
Does an ensuite count towards the room size?
No. The ensuite area is normally excluded when the bedroom is measured, so the remaining room must still meet the size standard.

All of them, including SW15 and SW18, and the surrounding parts of Greater London.
Does a shared house in Putney 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.
