Which rules apply in Selby?

Here is what usually applies to a Selby job of this kind. It is general information rather than legal advice, and the council’s written HMO standards have the final detail.

  • 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.
