£50 apart. Simple for a standard property — worth a conversation if you are in a conversion, an HMO or a flat above a shop.
A flat is £190. A house is £240. Property size and layout, not severity.
The counterintuitive part: a flat is cheaper to treat and frequently harder to finish, because cockroaches move between units and your treatment covers only your property.
| Flat — £190 | House — £240 | |
|---|---|---|
| Rooms to work through | Fewer | More |
| Appliance clusters | Usually one | Often two — kitchen and utility |
| Ground-floor perimeter | Limited | Full |
| Service penetrations | Fewer, but shared | More, but your own |
This deserves its own section because it is common here and because it changes the whole picture.
A flat above a takeaway, restaurant, café or food retail unit with a cockroach problem is a recognisable scenario. Cockroaches thrive in commercial kitchens and move upward through service voids, riser cupboards and pipework. Treating the flat repeatedly while the source is downstairs is money spent on a symptom.
If you live above a food business and have cockroaches, the most useful thing you can do is establish whether the premises below have been treated.
