An HMO fire door is a certified door set, usually rated FD30S, that holds back fire and smoke for about 30 minutes when closed. Landlords in Treharris (CF45 and CF46) 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 Treharris?
Here is what usually applies to a Treharris job of this kind. It is general information rather than legal advice, and the council’s written HMO standards have the final detail.
- Fitness for human habitation rules require mains-powered, interlinked smoke alarms on every storey and CO alarms where there is a gas, oil or solid-fuel appliance.
- Mandatory licence for HMOs with 3 or more storeys and 5 or more people in 2 or more households; Wales did not adopt England’s 2018 change.
- Council HMO standards and the fire risk assessment set detection, fire doors and escape routes.
- Councils such as Cardiff and Swansea run additional licensing for HMOs outside the mandatory scheme.
