Bolnore Village Shared-House Engineered Wood Flooring: Landlord Fit
HMOs in Bolnore Village put the hardest residential wear pattern on a floor of any category — multiple tenants, multiple visitors, mismatched routines, no shared care for the fabric of the building. On Bolnore Village HMO jobs we spec Engineered Wood Flooring to commercial-grade Class 33 wear, sealed edges throughout, and Class B fire-rated where the RH16 licence demands.
Class B fire rating and Bolnore Village HMO Engineered Wood Flooring
Most Bolnore Village HMO licences (issued by the Haywards Heath council) specify Class B or better fire rating on communal and escape-route flooring. We spec Class B-rated LVT or wood ranges as default on Bolnore Village HMO installs — fitting a non-compliant floor puts the licence at risk.
