An HMO ensuite is a small private shower room, with a WC and basin, built into or next to a letting room. Landlords in Shipley (BD9, BD10, BD17 and BD18) usually come to us with a council letter, a fire risk assessment or a house they have just bought. We price from whichever you have.

Which rules apply in Shipley?
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 Shipley before we price.
- 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.
- A conversion can be a material change of use under the building regulations, so confirm with building control before work starts.
- 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.
