Case Study 1: 5-Bedroom HMO Renovation – Slack Lane, Derby
Project Overview We recently completed a full renovation of a 5-bedroom HMO on Slack Lane in Derby. The job included boarding and skimming walls, installing new doors and staircases, fitting kitchens, and completing all internal painting and decorating.
Client Goals The property needed a full internal refurbishment to meet HMO standards. The client wanted a modern, functional finish delivered within a 10-week window.
Work Delivered
- Fully boarded and skimmed all walls and ceilings
- Installed door casings and hung internal doors
- Fitted skirting and architraves
- Installed two double kite winder staircases
- Supplied and fitted two small kitchenettes and one large kitchen
- Full internal paint and decoration, including all woodwork
Outcome The project was completed in 8 weeks—2 weeks ahead of schedule. The client was delighted with both the finish and the process, and immediately commissioned our team for further HMO projects in Nottingham.
Key Takeaway Delivering a stress-free experience is just as important as the physical work. We maintained clear communication and stuck to agreed timelines without compromise.
Case Study 2: 20-Bedroom HMO Conversion – Westminster Road, Coventry
Project Overview In 2019, we converted two former nursing homes into a large-scale 20-bed HMO on Westminster Road, Coventry. Each room was to have an en-suite bathroom, with 13 kitchenettes and a shared kitchen/dining space added for communal use.
Client Goals The London-based client required a full HMO conversion to council compliance standards, with durable and appealing finishes. The scope included managing the design, construction, and compliance processes.
Work Delivered
- Converted two buildings into one 20-bed HMO
- Built a 6m x 6m extension for a communal kitchen and dining area
- Installed 20 en-suites and 13 kitchenettes
- Exterior rendering and slate grey brick-effect detailing
- Internal works: partitioning, plumbing, electrics, plastering, joinery, kitchens, bathrooms, and decoration
Outcome Delivered in under 9 months, the property secured a 5-year council rental contract upon completion. The client praised the finish and communication, and offered further projects.
Key Takeaway Ongoing updates and client-focused decisions enabled a smooth project despite remote management. Every room was built to be lived in, not just signed off.
