Not sure of your band?
We cannot look up individual homes. The Valuation Office Agency checker on GOV.UK gives the band for any address in Elstree and Borehamwood.
Hertsmere also charges special expenses in part of its area (£707,598 in all, £16.41 per Band D home on average across the council). The parish and no-parish figures here leave them out, because the statistics do not say which areas pay them, so where they apply the bill is higher. The council's own bill shows them.
