Pricing

Home care prices — clear and transparent

Our visit rates are published here so you can work out what care would realistically cost before you speak to anyone. No enquiry required to see a price.

You should not have to ring round for a number

Most families researching care are doing it quietly, often late at night, trying to work out whether this is even affordable before involving anyone else. Publishing our rates means you can do that maths on your own terms.

The shortest visit we offer on its own is 30 minutes. There is also a 15-minute call at £15, but only as an addition for a second person in the same home while a carer is already there — a husband and wife, for example. It is not something we can book as a visit on its own, and we would rather say so here than have you plan around it.

What the rate represents. Each price is for one care call of that length. What you pay in a week depends on how many visits you have and how long each one needs to be — which is exactly what the free care assessment is for.

These rates apply everywhere we work: home care in Burton upon Trent, home care in Swadlincote and home care in Ashby-de-la-Zouch.

An estimate. The “now” figures are exactly what you type in, and nothing is stored. The Luxuricare figure is our published visit rates for the same visits. Your final cost is confirmed after a free care assessment and agreed care plan. Live-in and overnight care are quoted individually and are not included here.

What a week might come to

These are illustrations of how the published rates add up — not packages, and not a quote. Your actual pattern of visits is agreed at the free care assessment.

Figures are simple multiples of the published rates, shown to help you plan. They are not an offer or a quotation.

Included before care starts

  • A free care assessment in your own home, with no obligation.
  • £0 setup fee — nothing to pay to get started.
  • A free 30-minute care call so you can experience our care first.
  • A 7-day cooling-off period — cancel immediately, pay only for care received.
  • A written care plan setting out visits, lengths and cost.

Or pick a date and time online if you already know when suits.

Live-in and overnight care

These two are not on the rate card above, and we would be misleading you if they were.

Price on request — tailored package

Live-In Care at Home

A carer lives in the home and supports daily life as set out in the agreed care package.

What a live-in package involves differs enormously between households — how much support is needed, and whether a second carer is required to cover the daily rest period.

Price on request — tailored package

Overnight Care at Home

Waking nights and sleeping nights, priced by the hours and type of support required.

The price depends on how many hours the cover runs for and whether it is a waking night or a sleeping night. On a waking night the carer remains awake throughout. On a sleeping night the carer is permitted to sleep but can be woken to help when necessary, and a sleeping night includes up to three occasions of being woken; if assistance is required more than three times, it is treated as a waking night and additional charges apply.

We could publish a “from” figure for either of these. Plenty of providers do. But a headline number that almost nobody actually pays is not transparency, and you would find out the real cost at exactly the point you had stopped shopping around. Call 01283 357801 and we will quote for what is genuinely needed.

Funding, in general terms

Home care in England is paid for in one of three broad ways: privately by the person or their family, with a contribution from the local authority following a needs and financial assessment, or through NHS funding in specific circumstances. Some people also receive benefits that help towards the cost of care.

We deliberately do not publish eligibility thresholds, capital limits or benefit amounts. Those figures change, they differ by circumstance, and getting them wrong could cost a family real money. Your local authority’s adult social care team and independent advice organisations are the right sources. Tell us what you have been advised and we will work with it — we just will not invent it.

Pricing questions

Is the price per visit or per hour?

Per visit. Each rate relates to the visit length shown: £20 for 30 minutes, £27 for 45 minutes and £31.50 for one hour. If you have two visits a day, you pay for two visits.

Is there a setup or joining fee?

No. There is a £0 setup fee. The care assessment is also free, so nothing is charged before care actually begins.

What is the 7-day cooling-off period?

During your first 7 days you can cancel straight away — there is no notice to serve and nothing to negotiate. You pay only for the care that has already been delivered. After those first 7 days, the normal 2-week notice period set out in your care agreement applies.

How do I work out what my care will cost each week?

Multiply the visit rate by the number of visits in a week. For example, one 45-minute call each morning is 7 × £27 = £189 a week. At the free assessment we set out the actual pattern being suggested and what it comes to.

Do you charge extra at weekends or on bank holidays?

The rates published on this page are the rates we have approved for publication. If any variation were ever to apply to a particular arrangement, it would be explained to you in writing before care began — never applied as a surprise.

Do you help with council funding or Attendance Allowance?

We can talk you through the general landscape and point you to the right places, but we are not a benefits advice service and we will not guess at eligibility thresholds or figures. Your local authority's adult social care team and independent advice organisations are the right sources for your circumstances.

Reviews

What families say about the value

Given to Luxuricare directly

David HorneBurton upon Trent

“Lyndsey formed a lovely relationship with my Dad and was kind and supportive with my Mum despite Mums mood swings and increasing aggressive behaviour. She was always reassuring and kept me well informed, appreciating my difficulties following surgery and not living locally. Her professional manner helped me make difficult decisions when it became apparent my parents needs couldn’t be met in their home.

JoannaBurton upon Trent

“I cant thank my dads amazing carers enough for all they do for him and my mum & the massive help they are to me. Today they have taken my dad on his birthday trip to Twycross zoo. he’s been so excited and is having the best time with them these ladies didn’t have to do this they wanted to because they care.”

IanBurton upon Trent

“The gentleman pictured is my uncle. It’s been a rough 12 months, diagnosed with Parkinson’s and lost his wife of 52 years in January. Lyndsey was introduced to myself and my uncle around 10 months ago and it’s difficult to put into words how positive her impact has been. It isn’t just ‘care’ but ‘caring’.
