£420 for five rooms. Here is the arithmetic, and why a dog that sleeps wherever it likes makes whole-house treatment the sensible option rather than the expensive one.
Five rooms is £420 — £180 for the first room plus £60 for each of the remaining four.
Treated as five separate single-room jobs it would be 5 × £180 = £900. Doing it together saves £480 and works considerably better.
| Room | Charge | Running total |
|---|---|---|
| Room 1 (first room) | £180 | £180 |
| Room 2 | £60 | £240 |
| Room 3 | £60 | £300 |
| Room 4 | £60 | £360 |
| Room 5 | £60 | £420 |
No minimum charge and no call-out on top. £420 is the published price for five rooms.
With bed bugs, treating room by room can be defensible because the insects stay near where people sleep. Fleas are different, and the difference is the animal.
A cat or dog moves through the house all day. Wherever it walks, it drops eggs. Wherever it sleeps — and most animals sleep in several places — larvae develop in the carpet. So the distribution of a flea problem follows the distribution of the pet, which in most households means most of the ground floor and often the bedrooms too.
Ask yourself where the animal goes. That is your room count. It is very rarely one room.

A common assumption is that a room with laminate or tile does not need treating. It usually still does.
Flea larvae need somewhere to shelter from light, and on a hard floor that means the gaps between boards, the edges where flooring meets skirting, and any rug or pet bed in the room. Less habitat than deep carpet, but not none — and a room the animal uses regularly is worth including.
A five-room job needs preparation, and doing it properly makes a real difference:
Vacuuming before treatment matters more with fleas than most pests: it removes eggs and debris, and the vibration encourages pupae to hatch, which brings them out where treatment can reach them.
You may see fleas for a period after treatment. With a five-room job that can feel alarming, but it is usually the pupal stage hatching, which is exactly what you want to happen while the treatment is active.
Keep vacuuming and keep walking on the carpets — both help. Ask us what is normal for your situation so you can tell the difference between the expected tail-off and an actual problem.
