The sentence each figure was read from (15)

Read in full, publishes no figure

14 named sources were read in full on the dates shown and print no usable figure. They are counted, never filled in.

Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).

10 of the 24 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 14 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.

The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 15 figures, never sentences; 145 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.

The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): the median, minimum and maximum published inspection fee across every UK snagging firm that publishes one, by property size band (studio and one-bed flat, two-bed, three-bed, four-bed, five-plus), by region, by accreditation (RICS or RPSA versus unaccredited) and by inspection type (pre-completion inspection under the NHQB regime, post-completion snagging survey, re-inspection); beside it the London and South East premium measured from the firms' own pages rather than asserted, the share of firms that publish a fee at all, and the ratio of an inspection fee to a year of the cheapest snagging app - the comparison that decides the homeowner's purchase and that neither market publishes

145 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
