Most sources do not say whether VAT is included, so confirm VAT, travel and exclusions on every quote. No source publishes a price per traverse.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why combine methods?
Different methods detect different features. Combining them can reduce the risk of a poor site.
Is a geophysical survey price the same as a water survey price?
Often they overlap. Larger multi-method surveys cost more than a basic residential survey.
