£190 flat, £240 house, £180 proofing — the same across the whole Harrow area. Here is what sits behind each figure and how the cost compares with doing nothing.
Professional rat treatment costs £240 for a house and £190 for a flat. Pest proofing for suitable small holes is a separate £180, covering up to one hour.
These prices apply across the whole Harrow area and do not change by postcode. You do not need to make an enquiry to find out what treatment costs.
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| Rat treatment – flat | £190 |
| Rat treatment – house | £240 |
| Pest proofing (up to one hour, suitable small holes) | £180 |
| Flat treatment + proofing | £370 |
| House treatment + proofing | £420 |
Every figure on this page is what we actually charge. There is no call-out fee, no severity surcharge and no difference by area.
Worth being specific, because 'rat treatment' means different things to different companies.
The £190 or £240 buys professional treatment of an active rat problem at your property. What it does not buy is the closing of the gap that let them in — that is the separate £180 proofing service, and the distinction is the single most misunderstood thing about rodent pricing.
Treatment removes the rats that are there. Proofing removes the reason there were rats there. They are different jobs and we price them separately, because plenty of properties need one without the other.
Rats gnaw as a matter of routine — their incisors grow continuously and wearing them down is not optional for the animal. In a building that means:
Set against a £240 treatment, a single gnawed cable or a burst pipe under a floor makes the arithmetic fairly one-sided.
Not because a house problem is worse. Because there is more property to work through — more rooms, more ground-floor perimeter, usually a loft, often a garage or shed, and a garden with a boundary on the other side of it.
Publishing both figures means you can identify your own cost rather than being quoted an average that would be wrong for one of them.

|---|---|---|
| Droppings, noises or a sighting now | Treatment | £190 / £240 |
| Problem dealt with, want to prevent a repeat | Proofing | £180 |
| Active problem and obvious gaps | Both, treatment first | £370 / £420 |
| Rats in the garden only, nothing indoors | Possibly neither yet | — |
That last row matters. Rats in a garden are not automatically a house problem, and we would rather tell you that than take a booking.
Read nextRat Proofing Harrow – How Much Does It Cost? →Most pest control companies in this area will not publish a rat price. The typical structure is a call-out fee, then a per-visit charge, then a variable number of visits — which means the total is unknowable until the work is finished.
Questions worth asking anyone you ring:
Rental properties are treated at the same published prices. For a landlord the practical benefit is speed — a tenant's report can be authorised in the same conversation rather than after a survey, and with rodents that matters because the damage accrues while everyone waits.
Proofing after treatment is usually the sensible economy on a let: £180 once against a second treatment plus another round of tenant disruption.
These published prices are domestic. Commercial rat control varies far too much for a single honest figure — a small office and a restaurant kitchen with an audit requirement are not the same job — so we do not invent one. Tell us about the premises and we will give you a real price.
