Canbury Shared-House Engineered Wood Flooring: Landlord Fit
HMOs in Canbury 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 Canbury HMO jobs we spec Engineered Wood Flooring to commercial-grade Class 33 wear, sealed edges throughout, and Class B fire-rated where the KT2 licence demands.

HMO fire compliance in Canbury
Every Canbury HMO quote we issue includes the fire-rating certificate for the specified material. Filed by the landlord with the licence renewal — one less thing to chase before the annual inspection.

Shared Houses & HMOs in Canbury — questions
- How long does a Canbury 6-bed HMO fit take?
- 5–7 working days for a full re-floor including all bedrooms, kitchen, communal areas and hallways. Room-by-room sequencing keeps some rooms usable throughout.
- How do I protect the HMO Canbury floor between tenancies?

- Yes — 1-day turnovers for individual bedrooms, 2-day for bedroom + en-suite. Priced separately from full fit-outs. Same-crew for all rooms across a portfolio.
- Can we schedule around tenants still in residence in Canbury?
- Yes — communal areas fit while bedrooms stay occupied, or individual room fits while shared spaces stay intact. Tenant courtesy notice handled as part of the Canbury HMO fit schedule.
