Which rules apply in Burngreave?

Extensions for extra rooms in Burngreave must satisfy national law for England, the council’s written HMO standards and, where walls, drainage or fire separation change, the building rules. In short:

  • 7 or more sharers is a sui generis large HMO and normally needs planning permission.
  • A conversion can be a material change of use under the building regulations, so confirm with building control before work starts.
  • Fire precautions follow a risk assessment; the LACORS Housing – Fire Safety guide (2008) is guidance, not law, but many councils base their standards on it.
  • National rules ask for an adequate number of bathrooms, WCs and basins and suitably located kitchens; numeric ratios are set by each council.
