Spalding sits within South Holland 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.

How we handle HMO floor plan work in Spalding
Licence applications for HMOs in Spalding commonly need a floor plan showing room sizes, room use, fire safety features and amenities. We measure the house on site, check the format the council asks for and draw plans that match the property as it is today.
For landlords across Lincolnshire, our plans also support planning applications, building control and fire risk assessments. If you have changed the layout of a house in Spalding, we can update existing plans before a renewal, variation or sale.
