Costs you cover for site visits

Travel, parking, and your time on site visits are your responsibility. Beams doesn't reimburse. Worth checking parking arrangements with the customer before you set off.

Travel, parking, and the time you spend at site visits are your responsibility. Beams doesn't reimburse them.

What this means in practice

  • Petrol or transport — your cost.
  • Parking — your cost. Ask the customer in advance whether a permit is needed or whether there's paid parking near the property.
  • Time on site — yours.
  • Time spent quoting after the visit — yours.

This is the standard practice for site visits across the industry. The cost sits inside what you build into your quote — not as a separate line, but as part of the way you think about pricing the work.

What this means for you

Plan visits efficiently — group nearby site visits in the same day where you can. Decline projects in postcodes you'd rather not travel to. The platform respects your stated service area; if you're getting too many visits in awkward locations, refine your preferences.
