An HMO in Lichfield has to work for three audiences: the council, the people who live there and the owner's figures. We design with all three in mind and price the result in writing.
Our team is based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 9 miles from Lichfield. That keeps survey visits, site meetings and follow-up inspections easy to arrange.

Checked October 2026 against Lichfield District Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
We couldn't confirm Lichfield District 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 Lichfield District Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
HMO refurbishment in Lichfield: what we do
We refurbish existing HMOs in Lichfield that have fallen behind current standards, whether the prompt is a licence renewal, a council inspection or rooms that have become hard to let. The survey splits the work into safety, licence and optional items so the priorities are clear.
Where rooms in a Lichfield house are still let, we phase the work so tenants keep a working kitchen, bathroom and alarm system throughout. For landlords across Staffordshire, each job ends with updated certificates and photos ready to send to the council.
- Works list split into safety, licence and optional items
