Landlords in Wellingborough deal with North Northamptonshire Council for licensing, planning and housing standards. We keep those three in view together, so a layout that suits the licence also works for planning and building control.

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.

North Northamptonshire Council's Article 4 direction covers Kingswood ward in Corby only, not Wellingborough, so changing a family house here into a small HMO is usually permitted development. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We found no additional licensing scheme in force in North Northamptonshire Council, so the mandatory licence for five or more people is the main one to plan for.
