  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Floor area under a ceiling lower than 1.5 m does not count towards the room size, and many councils set larger sizes.

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.

Questions about ensuite installation in Hampshire

How noisy are macerators?

Modern units are quieter than older ones but still audible. We use them only where gravity drainage is not possible and fit them to reduce noise.

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.

Do you carry out ensuite installation across Hampshire?

Yes, across the whole of Hampshire, including Southampton, Portsmouth, Basingstoke.

Who licenses HMOs in Hampshire?

HMOs in Hampshire are licensed by the local council for the address. Where an area has several councils, each runs its own licensing and planning policies.
