Newly fitted compact ensuite shower room with tiled walls and heated towel rail

An HMO ensuite is a small private shower room, with a WC and basin, built into or next to a letting room. For a house in Bentley we start with a measured survey, check the council’s written HMO standards for the number of sharers, and then price each item separately.

Which rules apply in Bentley?

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 Bentley before we price.

  • 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 Bentley

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 Bentley do you work in?

All of them, including DN1, DN5 and DN55, and the surrounding parts of South Yorkshire.

Does a shared house in Bentley 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.
