Worksop sits within Bassetlaw 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.

Work is carried out by S&K and vetted subcontractors working under S&K's supervision, so you contract with one company for the whole project.
