Shared houses in Tamworth need to satisfy Tamworth Borough Council's licensing team as well as building regulations. We plan for both from the first survey, which avoids rework later.
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.

HMO refurbishment for Tamworth landlords
We refurbish existing HMOs in Tamworth 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 Tamworth 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.
- Kitchens, bathrooms, electrics and decoration renewed as agreed
- Phasing plan that keeps occupied rooms usable
- Works list split into safety, licence and optional items
