Pontefract's older town-centre property and later estates suit different kinds of wasp nest. We treat them at a fixed price with no hidden costs, at £90.
Older town-centre buildings near the castle ruins often have deep roof spaces, thick walls and old chimneys. They also have owners who care about how the building is treated, so we explain what we will do and where. A nest in a historic property may need extra care around old plaster and timbers, and we say so before we start.
On the later estates, the picture is simpler: a nest under the eaves, in a loft or in a shed. Whichever you have, take note of where the wasps are entering and send a photo if you can. Our price is fixed, with no hidden costs, and the wasp nest treatment is £90 as agreed beforehand.
The product is applied to the nest and entrance, not across the building, so damage is unlikely. Wasps themselves can mark plaster as they chew. Tell us about the age of the building and we will plan accordingly.
Yes, especially in a deep roof space or wall cavity. The first clue is often a few wasps in a bedroom or at a window. If that is happening, a nest is probably nearby and worth investigating.
