CON29DW price changes from 1st April 2023

We will be amending the price of our CON29DW Residential and CON29DW Commercial drainage and water searches from Saturday 1st April.

The CON29DW Residential will increase by £3.00 to £54.00 (£64.80 incl. VAT), as will related products.

The CON29DW Commercial will increase by £20.00 to £230.00 (£276.00 incl. VAT).

We are aware that this is an above average increase, particularly in the current economic climate. Unfortunately, rising costs mean that our current prices of £51.00 + VAT/£210 + VAT are no longer sustainable.
