    The Truck (09/13/17). #PanoramaCity #TheValley #SFV #DieBugs
    Jeff B.

    (Serviced 09/13/17 WE @ 10:00am...and many times before): When you needed to "do away" with and gained control of those pesky pests! Dewey Pest Control of Van Nuys has been part of my family's rental property business for nearly 10 years. Having recently taken over the Property Management responsibilities - which included a building in Van Nuys - I've gotten familiar with this particular branch of the organization and its various technicians. Would they continue to do my family and I proud...or would their extermination be considered!?: The Company - Founded by Ray M. Dewey in 1929, it began as a one-man operation that has since flourished into an organization of hundreds of technicians, crew workers, inspectors, fumigators, and office personnel. In 1977, Steven R. Dewey purchased the company from his father. Today, this family-owned business has 32 branches throughout California. They offered a slew of pest control services based on one's needs. Standard Monthly Service ($52.00) - This chosen service treated the given property once a month for general pest control of a myriad of critters (ants, mice, roaches, spiders, silverfish, etc.) which included up to two units, any laundry and storage rooms, and the entire exterior. Sadly, this didn't include bedbugs or bees which were expensive separate charges. This specific service was just right for the particular 8-unit complex this branch covered. Service - From the time I called and usually spoke with one of the many friendly and helpful Customer Service Reps. at the end of the previous month to schedule treatment for the following month to having dealt with the various technicians the date of the treatment, everyone along the way has been easy to work with and professional. When you made an appointment, you were usually given a 2-hour courtesy window, which wasn't bad at all. A special shout-out went to Chris Merino who has been our Technician for the past couple of years. His cheerfulness, efficiency yet attention-to-details (his service calls lasted between 15-25 minutes total), informative knowledge, and patient demeanor were always appreciated. Parking (N/A) - Since their business was all about coming to your location, out of courtesy you tried to have a convenient spot for them to park their vehicle https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=a5E-RA4yfjbRtlnV6hg-zg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Otherwise, they were more than happy to park out on the street. Atmosphere, décor, ambience - Although they had an actual office building, that was rather inconsequential since the real place of business was at any given property where the service was needed to be done. Attire - Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. Overall, Van Nuy's Dewey Pest Control branch has served my family well for nearly 10 years, and I was impressed with my nearly three years of having worked directly with them. Sure, you might've found cheaper prices elsewhere, but whenever possible I liked to support small family-owned businesses. Furthermore, Chris' excellent customer service was something the company should commend and be proud of. I found total value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $52.00; NO tip required). And...they accepted my credit card of choice...AMEX! 5.0 STARS

    Make sure the name and address on your statement are correct. 4 stars due to a billing error which Bob was quick to fix. They do good work.

In January, I wrote a check for several thousand dollars for services rendered, and the check cleared at that time. Four months later, I discovered that the same check had apparently been processed a second time, resulting in another withdrawal of thousands of dollars from my account. When I contacted the company, I spoke with Joseph, the manager, who I found to be defensive and dismissive. I was disappointed that there was no clear acknowledgment of the seriousness of the situation or meaningful apology at the time of the call. I later received a text message stating that Chase Bank was responsible for a duplicate processing error. While the issue was reportedly corrected, I find it difficult to believe that a major bank would make this type of mistake without some triggering action or error elsewhere in the process. Regardless of the cause, the overall handling of the situation left me very uncomfortable and caused significant stress and concern regarding my finances. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend the company.

For the past five years, I have called them for an annual inspection of our upper & lower foundation screens, always -0- charged. I was just informed they now charge a fee to inspect and will only come if there are rats observed inside your home. I have rat activity in my yard, coming from the next building. I asked them today to just come down to inspect my screens and was alerted that there is now a charge. I was always aware, that they can do nothing about exterior rats, so that's not the issue. I went with this company due to the lifetime guarantee and the annual free inspections. They changed the rules. While this company does a good job sealing, paying almost $5,400for a one time fee visit only is exorbitant. I'm sure other companies do just as good a job much cheaper. Any other visits after that were employees to inspect traps and remove whatever was in it. Please look around before you pay good money for a rat issue.

He was very knowledgeable and very detail oriented. He showed me everywhere that he would seal for rodent proofing. His pricing was exactly where I would put it. He was able to fit me in in a week and on the day of the job he had 4 guys; 2 of which were family members. They were all very professional and worked very quickly and well. I had a lot of wires and lines running in the attic and was worried some of them would get damaged (I know my fault and they should have been tacked up to begin with) but they worked around them and nothing was damaged. I was also worried about my roof since it was just done with lightweight concrete but no tiles were broken. They setup portable walls that were sealed with contractors plastic sheeting so any dust/contaminants were sealed away and directed at a HEPA filter. They finished the 1300 sqft attic and also the garage attic in about 6 hours and it looked perfect. I was very impressed. They even removed about 50ft of old HVAC piping from the garage attic (when they probably could have left it). I feel like it's very hard to find contractors along with their team that truly take pride in their work in this day in age but Leo and his team are the exception. It helps that it is a family owned and run business which mean they really care about their clients and also the work done. I will be recommending Leo Home Solutions to anyone that needs similar work done!

They sealed the house, cleaned the attic thoroughly, and set up traps, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. Their pricing was fair--not the cheapest, not the most expensive--but the quality of their work and service was absolutely worth it. From start to finish, the team was professional, reliable, and true to their word. They arrived exactly when they said they would, and Cesar and Edgar did an excellent job. They worked extremely hard, paid close attention to detail, and made sure everything was done right. Before choosing Leo Home Solutions, I had contacted another exterminator who inspected my home and provided a quote. Even before doing any work, they repeatedly asked--and texted--for a 5-star review, which felt unprofessional. Although that company was slightly less expensive, I am incredibly grateful I trusted my instincts and went with Leo Home Solutions instead. Leo Home Solutions is honest, professional, and truly does outstanding work. I would 1000% recommend them to anyone dealing with rats or similar issues.
