If the property is in Wombourne, the council that matters is South Staffordshire Council. We look up its current schemes for the address and note any conditions it usually attaches to licences.
Because we also build and repair HMOs, problems found at an inspection can be priced and fixed by the same team.

Checked October 2026 against South Staffordshire Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
We couldn't confirm South Staffordshire Council's Article 4 position from its own website, so we check it with the council for the address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We couldn't confirm whether South Staffordshire Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
