Meeting Shenfield HMO licence conditions on flooring
For modern extension Shenfield HMOs with escape-route corridors we sometimes step up to Class Bfl-s1 rated flooring — higher spec, small price increase, generous margin above the licence minimum.
The commercial spec that suits Shenfield HMO living
HMO wear is 2–4× residential — concentrated in the hallway, kitchen and shared living space. We spec Class 33 (commercial-grade) LVT with 6mm+ wear layer for Shenfield HMOs by default. Survives 5+ years of shared-house use without visible degradation.

Shared Houses & HMOs in Shenfield — questions
- Does my Shenfield HMO licence require special flooring paperwork?
- Most Shenfield licences require documented fire-rating for communal-area flooring. We include the certificate in every HMO fit — usable directly for licence renewal or new-licence application.
- Do you handle Shenfield HMO portfolios?
- Yes — from 3 properties across the year. Fixed rate, batched material supply, coordinated scheduling around licence renewals and EPC/gas-safe visits. Portfolio saving typically 15–20% vs one-off pricing.
- How long does a Shenfield 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 Shenfield floor between tenancies?
- Silicone perimeter (no scotia to trap hair and dirt), commercial-grade wear layer, and a between-tenant cleaning protocol — pH-neutral cleaner, mop-and-dry only. We provide the protocol in the handover pack.
- What warranty applies to a Shenfield HMO flooring install?
- 10-year workmanship warranty (same as owner-occupied), plus manufacturer wear warranty (typically 20-year residential / 5-year commercial for LVT). Fire-rating certificate provided separately for licence purposes.
- What fire rating do I need on my Shenfield HMO floor?
- Class B minimum for most Shenfield HMO licences, Class Bfl-s1 for escape routes. Our default HMO spec is Class B-rated, with the certificate included in the quote pack for licence filing.
