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 Worthing 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 Worthing?

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

  • 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.
