Hove Shared-House Engineered Wood Flooring: Landlord Fit
HMOs in Hove 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 Hove HMO jobs we spec Engineered Wood Flooring to commercial-grade Class 33 wear, sealed edges throughout, and Class B fire-rated where the BN3 licence demands.
HMO fire compliance in Hove
Every Hove 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.
