Licence condition works are the jobs a council asks for before or after granting an HMO licence: things like extra detection, fire doors, a second bathroom, kitchen changes or repairs. Landlords in Briton Ferry (SA10, SA11 and SA12) 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 Briton Ferry?
Licence condition and schedule-of-works in Briton Ferry must satisfy national law for Wales, the council’s written HMO standards and, where walls, drainage or fire separation change, the building rules. In short:
- Landlords must register with Rent Smart Wales, and those who manage their own lets need a Rent Smart Wales licence.
- Council HMO standards and the fire risk assessment set detection, fire doors and escape routes.
- Kitchen and bathroom ratios are set in each council’s HMO standards.
- Councils assess hazards, including damp and mould, under the HHSRS, alongside the fitness for human habitation rules for occupation contracts.
