£50 apart. Straightforward for a standard house or purpose-built flat — less obvious for the converted properties that make up so much of this area.
A flat is £190. A house is £240. The difference reflects the size and layout of the property.
In a converted house split into flats, each self-contained unit is priced as a flat — but the problem frequently is not confined to one unit, and that matters more than the £50.
| Flat — £190 | House — £240 | |
|---|---|---|
| Rooms to work through | Fewer | More |
| Ground-floor perimeter | Limited or none | Full perimeter |
| Loft | Rarely your own | Usually |
| Garage or shed | Rare | Common |
| Garden | Rare | Usually |
| Underfloor voids | Shared, if any | Your own |

View Rat Control Wealdstone →A flat is cheaper to treat and frequently harder to finish.
In a house, treating the property usually deals with the problem. In a converted or purpose-built block, rats move through service voids, boxed pipework, ceiling voids and shared drainage. Your treatment can succeed completely and activity can return from a neighbouring unit or from communal areas you have no access to.
A house at £240 is generally a job that ends. A flat at £190 sometimes needs a building-wide response, and no single flat treatment provides that.
A common situation here, and worth asking about rather than assuming.
Three self-contained flats in one converted house is not the same job as one house, and it is not simply three flat treatments either. Tell us the arrangement — how many units, whether there are communal areas, and whether the problem appears in more than one — and we will give you a real figure before you book.
| Property | Treatment | With proofing |
|---|---|---|
| Flat | £190 | £370 |
| House | £240 | £420 |
In a flat, proofing is disproportionately valuable — you may not be able to fix the building, but you can make your own unit considerably harder to get into.
No. Rats range through a building, so treating properly means addressing the property rather than a room.
Tell us. Adjacent flats or terraced houses with a shared problem are worth discussing rather than treating in isolation.
Tell us the arrangement. A single room in a shared house is usually part of a house rather than a separate flat.

Rats move between units through service voids and shared drainage, so the source may be outside your property.
Tell us the property type — and if it is a flat, whether neighbours have reported the same thing.
