An HMO ensuite is a small private shower room, with a WC and basin, built into or next to a letting room. In Egham, a town of about 30,000 people in Surrey, the work is planned around the HMO rules for England and the council’s written HMO standards. With students as well as working sharers renting in Egham, we plan bigger jobs for the gap between academic-year tenancies where we can.
