in; 1 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.

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 price for each job type (rodding, high-pressure jetting, CCTV survey, out-of-hours call-out) across every UK drainage firm that publishes one, by region and by hour of day, and the share of firms that publish nothing at all - a price map of the trade that no single firm and no cost-guide site produces from firms' own pages", "embed": "
