Landlord licensing and compliance in Windsor and Maidenhead
We're still writing the fact-checked local guide for Windsor and Maidenhead - licensing schemes are decided council by council, and we verify each one against the council's current register before publishing. That doesn't change what already applies to your property: every English tenancy needs a current gas safety record, EICR, EPC, protected deposit, Right to Rent checks, working alarms and, for tenancies that existed on 1 May 2026, the Renters' Rights Act Information Sheet - regardless of what Windsor and Maidenhead does or doesn't require on top.
Renewal tracked from expiry, reminders from 60 days out, proof of service to tenants logged. Knows the 2-month early-renewal rule that keeps your date fixed.
Five years goes quicker than you think. Kept remembers so you don't have to - including the 28-day duty to give tenants a copy.
Expiry tracked from the certificate details you confirm - band E is the current minimum for most domestic private lets unless exempt, and proposed changes are flagged only when they become law.
30-day protection window tracked from the day the money lands - not the tenancy date - with prescribed information logged.
Check dates and follow-up dates for time-limited permissions, stored against each tenant.
Smoke alarms every storey, CO alarms where required, checked and dated at the start of every tenancy.
