Honest pricing

What is not included in the From price.

Hortéa prices are ex-VAT and ex-foundation. Foundations vary by site — typically €4,000–€12,000 depending on ground conditions, slab type, and whether groundworks access is straightforward. We quote foundations after the site survey, not before.

VAT in the Republic of Ireland is 13.5% on construction works. In Northern Ireland, VAT is 20%. We will not quote a price that excludes VAT without saying so clearly.

Connections to mains water, drainage, and electricity are quoted separately after the site survey, because they vary significantly by address. Some sites have services at the boundary; others require a mains extension. We will tell you which before you sign.
