What it costs

What live-in care costs in Durrington, against the alternatives

A typical live-in week is £1,117 from carers within 25 miles of Durrington, with our fee included, and the middle half of advertised rates run from £1,036 to £1,141. Here is where that sits against a care home.

A week of care in Wiltshire, on one scaleWeekly cost, our fee included where it applies
  1. Live-in care in Wiltshiretypical advertised week£1,117
  2. A couple, one live-in carerabout a fifth more than for one£1,350
  3. Care home, England averageone resident, before extras£1,160
  4. Nursing home, England averageone resident, before extras£1,410
  5. A couple in a care hometwo fees£2,320

Care home figures are averages for England; too few homes in Wiltshire publish a fee for a local median. Fees vary widely between homes. At home you keep paying the household bills and the carer's food, so add those before you compare.

For a couple the gap is wide: one live-in carer for both of you is about £1,350 a week, and a care home charges two fees.

Past about 35 hours a week of visits, live-in care costs about the same and somebody is there all day.

Their advertised rates put a typical week at £1,117, with our fee included, and the middle half of them between £1,036 and £1,141.

A live-in carer moves into the home in Durrington and is there day and night: personal care, meals, medicines prompted at the right times, company, and someone in the house overnight. On PrimeCarers you choose the carer yourself from the profiles of those who can reach Durrington, agree the rate on their profile, and we set up the contract and the weekly payments. Families arrange it after an operation or a hospital stay, for dementia, for a couple, or when visits are no longer enough. How live-in care works goes through it step by step.

From carers' own profiles, October 2026. Distances are straight-line, from the centre of Durrington to where each carer says they live. Counts are the live-in carers with a photo and a live-in rate that our area searches return, at most 100 per area, so busy areas have more. Rates include our fee and are advertised day rates multiplied by seven; typical means the median. Availability for your dates needs confirming with each carer.
