Wakefield's Victorian terraces, former industrial buildings and large estates all see summer nests. A wasp nest treatment has a fixed cost of £90.
A city with a coalfield and woollen heritage leaves a varied building stock. Wakefield has Victorian terraces with long, shared roofs, former industrial buildings with broken ledges and cladding, and later estates where the nest is more likely to be in a plastic soffit or the roof of an integral garage. Each calls for slightly different access.
Landlords, housing associations and small businesses make up a fair share of enquiries, so we often talk to more than one person. If you are reporting a nest on behalf of someone else, give us a contact who can allow access. The nest treatment is a fixed £90, and we confirm the price and the plan before we start the work.
Many tenants report it to the landlord, who may arrange it. If you are arranging it yourself, check your tenancy first. Ring us if you are unsure what applies and we can describe what we need to see.
Cladding gaps can hold nests, and the access may involve height. Send us the building address, the height and what you can see, and we will explain what equipment and permissions are likely to be needed.
