Hednesford sits within Cannock Chase District Council, which sets its own HMO standards for room sizes, kitchens and bathrooms. Our designs start from those standards, so the layout we price is designed to meet the council's licensing requirements.

Our team is based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 11 miles from Hednesford. That keeps survey visits, site meetings and follow-up inspections easy to arrange.
