I can't tell you about their offers as we never received them. He may have done a good inspection but he seemed more interested about buying his new truck than doing a thorough inspection.

DO NOT trust this company for bird exclusion services…read more We paid $350 after their technician showed us video of birds actively flying in and out of our house. Another crew later came out, claimed there were "no birds, just twigs," sanitized the area, installed a metal cover, and left. Now there are flies surrounding the covering, birds trying to get back inside, and we can still hear chirping and movement in the wall/vent area. Instead of fixing the issue, it seems they trapped live birds inside our home while creating an even bigger sanitation problem. Terrible communication, conflicting explanations, and a complete waste of money. Absolutely unacceptable.

This year we had bats in the siding of the house. After making repairs ended up with a couple in the house. Called the first company and they said they couldn't make it for a couple of days. Called another company and couldn't come out for 2 weeks. Summit came out the next day and ensured we had animal control get the bats that were in the living space. They had a much better plan than the first company and did a through inspection. They gave us peace of mind.

Proceeded to have a gang of kids who spent all day going door to door trying to solicit business, which is strictly against our community's rules. Despite security escorting them out with warnings several times, they still managed to get back in (or, I dunno, maybe there were just more that security didn't catch) and continue soliciting for the entire day. I don't care how good their pest control is (and it sounds like it sucks), but if you have such complete disregard for a community and its homeowners, there's no way you'd ever get my business!

These men have been wonderful at keeping me informed of issues and responding to my calls and questions. They have been super polite, sensitive to my needs, efficient in their work, respectful of my time. Yes, there have been some corrections that needed to be made on their part.

They're all more worried about getting you signed up on their monthly service contract than actually treating your home for pests. NOT VANGUARD. The treatment was applied (for an incredibly reasonable price), I was given instructions on what I need to do and what to look for, and if the treatment hasn't cut down the ant colony in 2 weeks, Charles will come back out and re-apply the treatment at no extra charge. I would recommend again and again.

This is for the Ruther Glen, Virginia branch, Not Maine…read more Signed an annual/quarterly pest control contract for my new home in Virginia. First treatment was fine. Called for a re-visit in June for an ant problem in the kitchen. While the technician was re-treating, he asked if I'd paid -- which isn't his job, and put him in an awkward position. I called the office to flag this as inappropriate; the office staff suggested I just pay the technician anyway since "he's there." I declined and asked to be invoiced properly like every other service company does. I then called the president directly to raise the concern. Instead of addressing it, he canceled my contract on the spot, telling me it's "industry standard" to have technicians collect payment in person. I'd never been sent an invoice the entire time I was a customer, and now suddenly the field tech is the one asking for payment? Completely unprofessional. I simply asked that a billing practice be handled properly, and got my contract canceled by the president himself for raising a reasonable concern. Honestly, the reason for the re-treatment -- one day later, the ants are already back. Between the billing issue and the treatment not even working, I'm not confident this is a company worth being with long term.

After some research with other companies, they were the best value. So far, they've been great! They've only had to spray in the house once (so far), and I've had 2 quarterly pest treatments as of today. After the first spray I did notice creatures on the outside framing -- but they happily came back and treated it again per the agreement. Great customer service, and always on time.

Horrible customer service and terrible service that was not thorough at all. If I could give the…read morecompany zero stars I would. It's extremely frustrating to pay $500 for an incomplete service that only took the technician 40 minutes and did not get the job done. Subsequently, I persistently called, left voicemails and emailed for 2 weeks letting them know of my issue and they kept giving me the run around. It's unfortunate because they were so quick to get me scheduled to take my money but when I told them they obviously didn't do the job I paid for, they have been completely ghost. Because of the nature of the situation and the health hazard, I had to call another company to fix the faulty job they did. The new company is excellent, great customer service and I will recommend them to everyone with any similar issues as well as my HOA because we have wildlife issues is my neighborhood quite often. Companies like Jesse James do not care about customers... customers who work hard NOT to throw away money! I do not write reviews often so when I do it's because I value my dollar and do not want others taking advantage. Sadly, I was referred to Jesse James by another company who could not get to me sooner so I'll have to also let them know about my experience so others do not have my same fate! And do not lie and say you were not given access to the interior of the house (like you did in your response to me on Google). If you would've called me back or responded to my emails - had a conversion about any of this you would have heard the truth. Review our invoice that states exactly what we said no to - upcharges your technician tried to sell us for exterior gates around the vents. This is exactly why your customer service is horrible. You as the owner weren't even respectful enough to respond and let me know hey this is what my technician told me but what actually happened? Again, absolutely horrible - all around hands down despicable service and an even more terrible leader who would rather hide behind a computer and lie on the internet than face the truth!
