Not sure how much care is needed?
Answer a few questions and we’ll estimate the hours a week, a visit schedule and a rough cost for care at home in New Malden — in about a minute.
CQC quality of home care in New Malden
Every agency here is regulated by the Care Quality Commission. Each profile shows the full CQC breakdown — whether the service is safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led.
Care agency vs a private carer in New Malden
A private or introductory-agency carer often charges less per hour than a CQC-regulated agency — but the difference pays for cover, vetting and the legal responsibilities the agency carries for you. Here’s how the two compare.
| CQC-regulated agency | Private / introductory carer | |
|---|---|---|
| Regulation | Registered with and inspected by the CQC — a published rating on every profile | Not inspected — an individual carer is not CQC-regulated |
| If your carer is off sick | The agency sends a replacement, so care never stops | You have to arrange emergency cover yourself |
| Employment & tax | The agency employs the carer — pay, tax, pension and insurance are handled for you | You may become the carer’s legal employer, with HMRC, pension and insurance duties |
| Training, DBS & insurance | Carers are trained, DBS-checked and covered by the agency’s insurance | You check training, references and DBS yourself |
| Typical hourly rate | £22–£28 per hour | £15–£19 per hour |
The higher agency rate buys the cover, training and liability an agency carries for you — the reassurance most families want when arranging care for a parent. Every agency listed on this page is registered with the CQC.
Rates are typical UK ranges, not local quotes, and vary by provider, timing and the level of care. Employing a carer directly makes you their employer — check your responsibilities on GOV.UK.
What home care costs in New Malden
Estimated typical UK ranges — actual fees depend on the agency, the hours you need, and the level of care. Always get a written quote after a needs assessment. For context, Kingston upon Thames council's published cost-of-care rate was around £1,157/week (2025). Check who pays with the funding calculator.
Paying for home care in New Malden: your home is protected
This is the difference families most often miss. When your relative is cared for in their own home, the value of that home is left out of the council’s financial assessment. Move into a care home and the property is usually counted — which is why so many families worry about having to sell up. Staying at home removes that worry entirely.
The property disregard
Your main or only home is never included in the means test for care at home. The assessment looks only at savings, capital and income — the house you live in is disregarded for as long as care is provided there.
How the means test works (England)
- Over £23,250 in savings & capital — you pay the full cost of your care (a “self-funder”).
- Under £14,250 — your capital is ignored; you contribute only from income.
- Between the two — a sliding scale: roughly £1 a week for every £250 of capital above £14,250.
- Your home — disregarded throughout, because the care happens there.
Kingston upon Thames council carries out a free care-needs assessment first, then a financial assessment to work out what, if anything, you pay towards care in New Malden.
Capital limits are the England thresholds (frozen for several years — check the current figures). Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland use different limits and rules. The residential-care property rules are more nuanced (a partner still living there, or a 12-week disregard, can change things). Always get a financial assessment from your council.
What later-life care costs in New Malden
Average weekly costs for the main types of care, so you can see how New Malden compares with the wider Kingston upon Thames area and the UK.
| Type of care | New Malden | Kingston upon Thames avg | UK average |
|---|---|---|---|
| Residential care home | £1,568 | £1,486 | £1,200 |
| Nursing care home | £1,553 | £1,467 | £1,500 |
| Live-in care (est.) | — | — | ~£1,400 |
| Visiting care, 20 hrs/wk (est.) | — | — | ~£460 |
Residential care in New Malden averages £1,568/week — about 31% above the UK average.
Care-home figures are the average advertised private weekly fee across AskBart’s listings (New Malden within ~5 miles; Kingston upon Thames county-wide); actual fees depend on the home, room and level of care. Home-care figures are typical UK estimates — we don’t yet hold verified local agency rates, so they aren’t shown per area. Always get written quotes. Model your own numbers with the care cost calculator.
The true cost of care at home vs a care home in New Malden
Families often compare a care-home fee to home-care hours alone — but a care home already includes the room, meals and bills, while staying at home means paying for those on top of the care. Adjust the figures for an illustrative weekly and yearly comparison, and see where a care home becomes the cheaper choice. The care-home figure is prefilled with New Malden's average private fee — adjust any number to match your own quotes.
Household costs total £173/week. Attendance Allowance is a non-means-tested benefit (2026/27 rates £76.70 lower / £114.60 higher per week — check the current rate); it is usually payable whether you stay at home or self-fund a care home, so it is applied to every option below.

Where it changes over
Once the £173/week of household bills are counted, staying at home works out cheaper only up to about 61 hours of care a week. Beyond that, a residential care home — where the bills are already included — usually costs less.
A guide, not a quote
Every figure is an editable estimate. Household bills vary by home and circumstances; live-in care may need two carers for high or overnight needs; and the right choice depends on the level of care needed, not just the total. Always get real quotes and a care-needs assessment before deciding.
