We carry out ensuite installation in Castleford, 9 miles south-east of Leeds, working to the HMO rules that apply in England and to the council’s written HMO standards.

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 Castleford we start with a measured survey, check the council’s written HMO standards for the number of sharers, and then price each item separately.
