Daventry sits within West Northamptonshire 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 38 miles from Daventry. That keeps survey visits, site meetings and follow-up inspections easy to arrange.
