What councils usually look for on a licence floor plan

Requirements differ by borough, so always check your council's guidance. These are the things our plans are built to show.

📐

Every room, labelled and sized

Wall-to-wall dimensions and floor area in square metres (plus sq ft), drawn to scale.

🛏️

Bedroom sizes you can check

National minimums are 6.51 m² for one adult and 10.22 m² for two. We show en-suites separately so they aren't counted as bedroom floor area.

📏

Low ceilings marked

Floor area under 1.5m headroom doesn't count, so loft eaves get a dashed exclusion line.

🔥

Fire safety layer (+£40)

Smoke and heat alarms, FD30 fire doors, emergency lighting, fire blankets and escape routes, with a symbol key.

Questions landlords ask

Will my council accept this floor plan?+

Our plans are drawn to show what London councils typically ask for: scaled layout, room labels, dimensions and areas in m², amenities, and (with the add-on) fire safety features. Each borough sets its own rules, so check your council's current guidance before you submit. We're happy to look at it with you.

Do you need access to every room?+

Yes. To measure accurately we need to get into each room, including occupied bedrooms. Let tenants know in advance; we can work from a key safe or lockbox.

What does the +£40 safety annotation include?+

We mark smoke and heat alarms, FD30 fire doors, emergency lighting, fire blankets/extinguishers and escape routes as found on site, with a symbol key. We record what's installed; we don't carry out fire risk assessments.

How fast will I get it?+

Same-day or next-day delivery to your online portal.

Is it an architectural drawing?+

No. It's a laser-measured 2D layout drawn to scale for licensing and marketing, not an architectural, structural or building-control drawing.

Do you charge more for bigger HMOs?+

No. It's one flat rate per property with no bedroom surcharges.

Which areas do you cover?+

£0 travel across N1–N22, NW1–NW11, EN1–EN5, E10 and E17. Other London areas on request.

Can you photograph the rooms while you're there?+

Yes, if it helps with re-letting (SpareRoom says listings with photos get a far higher response rate). It's optional: just mention it when you book.
