Ask what the number includes
Confirm whether the quote includes inspection, all sleeping rooms, furniture, products, equipment, travel, VAT, planned revisits and monitoring.
If the price was given before any property or evidence questions, treat it as an estimate rather than a defined programme.
- Number of visits
- Rooms and adjoining spaces
- Heat or laundry support
- Follow-up interval
- Warranty conditions
Use published council charges carefully
Some councils publish dated domestic treatment charges. They are useful market context but not a national tariff, and eligibility or room limits can differ.
Compare the service definition as closely as the price.
