Cost of proofreading an essay

You’ve nearly wrapped up your essay, and you’re at that critical stage – proofreading. But, naturally, you’re probably curious about the cost of essay proofreading. So let’s dive right in.

Essay proofreading cost

If you’re seeking a top-quality proofreading service at competitive rates, London Proofreaders can assist you to ensure your essay is refined to perfection. We use two native English editors on every document and proofread and edit your essay for grammar, spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, word choice, repetition, academic tone and style.

Here are the standard cost and return time:

The cost of proofreading an essay can vary due to a few critical factors:

  • Word Count: Longer essays may require more time and, consequently, incur a slightly higher cost.
  • Turnaround Time: If you need your essay back urgently, be prepared to pay a bit extra for the express service.

London Proofreaders offers lower prices compared to other proofreading companies such as Proofed and Scribbr. Here’s an example for 2000 words, 3000 words and 5000 words.

For 2000 words

  • Proofed- £40, return time: 24 hours
  • Scribbr- £44, return time: 7 days
  • London Proofreaders– £26, return time: 2 working days

For 3000 words

  • Proofed- £60, return time: 24 hours
  • Scribbr- £57, return time: 7 days
  • London Proofreaders– £39, return time: 2 working days

For 5000 words

  • Proofed-£100, return time: 24 hours
  • Scribbr-£83, return time: 7 days
  • London Proofreaders– £65, return time: 2 working days

Based on the above, Proofed is most expensive. Scribbr, on the other hand, is priced in the middle for all word counts but with a longer return time. London Proofreaders is the most affordable option without compromising on quality!

In conclusion, it’s essential to balance your budget with your needs and choose a service provider or proofreader that offers the best value for your investment.

What our customers say

Excellent journal article editing

Much more affordable than other companies. I sent my article on Friday afternoon and thought I’d get my work back after two business days. So I was surprised to get my proofread document back by the Monday. My writing now reads more fluently. I highly recommend this proofreading service. Mohamed, Indonesia

The best proofreading services

I’m absolutely delighted with the proofreading of my PhD thesis. The attention to detail, clear suggestions, and care taken with academic tone and flow were outstanding. Every chapter read cleaner and more coherent, with inconsistencies, minor errors, and awkward phrasing expertly resolved while preserving my voice. Turnaround was prompt, communication was professional, and the feedback was precise and actionable.  Charlotte, UK
