Vanguard Termite Control exceeded our expectations. They performed a local treatment for my home, and I was amazed by their professionalism, kindness, and care. It was a very pleasant experience. Thank you to Jim, the estimator, who was extremely professional, thorough, and patient.

Gabriel, the technician, was outstanding, he was extremely knowledgeable, detail oriented, and took the time to answer all my questions patiently. He made sure everything was done carefully and thoroughly. Along with Anthony, they did a fantastic job completing the treatment.

Eddie is the best. Thorough inspection and reasonable repair of any damage . The larger companies advertising always attempt to upsale you with expensive over the top repairs. read more

Gabriel and Roberto were very helpful, they came and finished the job in less than 2 hours. Both were super knowledgeable in helping us understand the treatment and very patient as we asked questions. As they did the treatment, they handled everything with care and were very kind.

We were very happy with the service. the entire crew is very professional and helped us with bore beetle treatments for our new house. Price was reasonable. Service was done efficiently and thoroughly. They also pointed out dry rot spots and ways we can fix things ourself later. Felt like a great investment in our home. read more

Best customer service! Jorge did a free inspection and advised us to just monitor and not do any treatment, which is the most honest and professional opinion we received. Although we didn't do any treatment with him or with any firms, I appreciated his honesty when he's not trying to only make money, in contrast to all the other firms I consulted. read more

Gabriel and his crew arrived on time, were courteous and clearly explained the work involved. They needed to come out a second time to finish the work, but managed to schedule it for the immediate next day and left the place clean. The original inspection (by Jorge) was also thorough and he explained the tradeoffs for the different treatments and exactly what we needed. Quote was competitive with others we'd gotten. Very satisfied overall. read more

Professional, friendly, and thorough. Armando and Robert did a great job. They explained clearly every step of the way, and their work was clean and efficient. I will definitely recommend them to others. read more

Can't say enough good things about Gabriel and Roberto from Vanguard Termite Control. They were professional, walking me through the entire process from start to finish. Gabriel's expertise was impressive, he traced floor board dry wood termites to a patio door I never would have suspected, treated the boards and door, and applied borax while Roberto worked hard drilling in the cement to install subterranean barriers. They were courteous, knowledgeable, and thorough. I wish all home technicians were this polite and skilled. I will definitely be hiring them again! read more

Gabriel and Anthony were punctual, professional, and courteous. They answered all of my questions and were very helpful. Great experience with this company from inspection to provide a quote all the way to completion of the job. read more

We were recently at the Home and Garden show in Santa Clara, when we came across the folks at Vanguard. We chatted with their team for a bit and went ahead with scheduling an inspection. From the get go, communication was top notch from this company! Jim texted to let me know exactly when he was showing up within "the window" provided, which I really appreciated! He was extremely knowledgeable and patient, answering questions, and not trying to sell me services we didn't need. So refreshing to hear his honesty, and his experience in the business was absolutely clear to see. We definitely wanted to move forward with them, as they offered a 5 year warranty instead of 1 or 2 years, like other companies. Scheduling was easy (Shout out to Keirstan!) and the following week, Gabriel and Robert came to provide the services we signed up for. We needed Vanguard to treat our home for full drywall treatment, as well as some surface fungus areas that needed attention. Like Jim, Gabriel was on time, thorough in his explanations, courteous, very diligent, and answered all my questions. His experience was so obvious, and you could plainly see how much he cared about doing the job RIGHT! We paid the price on the contract, no upselling, no sneaky fees. In summary, this is a family owned company that CARES about doing a great job! The people are top notch, and I couldn't have asked for more! I learned a lot about termites and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company!!! If I could give six stars, I would. read more

I had a termite inspection with Jim and was very impressed with how thorough and professional he was. He took his time checking every area of the house, including rooms, closets, bathrooms, and the garage, which was a big difference from other inspectors I've had before. Jim clearly explained where termites could potentially travel and what signs to watch for, and he provided practical recommendations without trying to oversell unnecessary work. His estimate was reasonable, and their company offers a 5-year warranty, which is much better than the 1-2 year warranties many companies provide. Based on the inspection experience, I feel very comfortable moving forward and plan to schedule the work soon. I look forward to updating this review once the treatment is completed. read more

Tl;dr - CEO calls up clients to bully client on price mistake, repeatedly throws employee under the bus in a repugnant way. Vanguard gave us a quote over a year ago so I called them out to inspect for an updated quote on fumigation for termites and wood boring beetles as the old quote had expired. The inspector, John, apparently a new hire, was extremely courteous, informative, and a joy to be around, which is why what happened later left such a sour taste in my mouth. He provided a quote for $4526 for fumigation of one structure. After attempting to lock in the quote, I received a phone call from the CEO of Vanguard (George, I believe) at 8:30AM telling me that the quote was "a typo" and that they would lose money at that price and they could not provide service at that price point. The new quote was for $5800. I replied that I felt this was a scummy practice, at which point the CEO started yelling and talking over me for the remainder of the call. The CEO threw his employee under the bus repeatedly and said they would honor the original quote by trying to get "the inspector to cover the difference." Setting aside the fact that this CEO is singling out an employee to cover his business' operating costs, this is a failure of training on the company's part. Any reasonable CEO would say at this point, "we've made a mistake and we'll split the difference with you," or at a minimum, apologize. Vanguard does not have a reasonable CEO. The CEO further stated that I "was being recorded" in a threatening voice. I asked why he would mention that, and why he was talking over me constantly. He replied, "Bro, I'll talk when I want." He also mentioned how many millions he does in business and why a job like this was inconsequential for his bottom line. All in all, pretty repulsive stuff to hear from a CEO. He then had the inspector call me directly to profusely apologize, rather than apologize himself. Of course John, the inspector, was courteous as always, but it felt really gross for a CEO to make his employee call a client to grovel for forgiveness for the CEO's blatant unprofessionalism. The worst part is, I feel like he may punish John for this, who was the only person I've interacted with from this company doing a decent job in the first place. All in all, a very negative experience (except the inspector, John). I would avoid putting money in this CEO's pocket. read more

They were polite and respectful, gave us very detailed information about our thorough walk-through offered us two different treatment options at two different price points and allowed us to go from there. upon treatment day, the owner Jorge and his crew consisting of Roberto Gabe and Armando were so kind to explain everything again and to be courteous of all the tenants in the building. After treatment, they swept the property and leaf blew Any mess that was made. Thank you team!! and hopefully so long termites! (will update this review after the treatment settles) read more

Vanguard Termite Control - Pest Control Near Me - Redwood City, California

See all

Vanguard did an outstanding job at out house! Their inspector was great, knowledgeable, nice, not pushy, and detailed. Their quotes were very competitive, and we decided to go with them. As soon as we approved the quote, we were scheduled for service the very next day! The crew showed up right on time, got right into all items that were agreed on, and a few hours later, the job was done. All small drill holes on the walls they made to inject the spot treatment chemicals were properly patched up, and they cleanup everything. The crew was also very polite, respectful, and professional. And on top of all that, they offered the by far best warranty amongst all 3 services we got quotes from. What's not to like? Definitely recommend. Hope they can maintain this excellent standard into the future. read more

I had a wonderful experience with Vanguard termite control. I had to have termite treatment for two windows in a condo. Both John, who did the inspection, and Gabriel, who did the treatment, were professional and clearly explained the process. Gabriel went above and beyond explaining things as he went and taking care to leave as little trace as possible of the repair. I would definitely use their services again in the future. read more

John was a great inspector and very thorough. Gabriel and Alonzo were great doing the work- all 3 were very professional, knowledgeable, helpful (found /disposed of a dead rat outside the house eek), great at explaining the process and work. plus being very nice. everything was left neat and tidy. Kirsten in the office was very professional and efficient. read more

Gabriel and his team did good job. They're very patient and professional, and gave good warranty.

We had Drywood termites in our attic and also a small area of wood boring beetles. John the inspector did a very thorough inspection and a good explanation using diagrams. We a quote from another company but they wanted to do a full fumigation for a lot more $. I spoke with a vanguard rep who explained they did not think this warranted that. John also called me to back that up. We made the appointment. Gabriel arrived to do the work. He was very professional and took care to make sure he did not disturb anything or track dirt inside. Afterwards he provided a thorough explanation of what was done, and recommended I call them for the free inspections after 1 year, 3 years and 5 years. I would not hesitate to recommend Vanguard for this type of work. read more

Termites killed. Good Job. We would rehire this company again and refer them to other clients.

Gabe, Robert and Damien came to my rescue by quickly and efficiently treating our property for subterranean termites that were discovered when baseboards were removed in order to install new flooring. The flooring job had to be stopped. Vanguard came out and we only lost one day of work on the floor. I highly recommend Jorge and his crew. read more

Vanguard Termite Control delivered exceptional service from the initial contact with Keirstan, the careful and knowledgeable inspection by Jim Morrison and the termite treatment service of Damian Villafuerte and Roberto. The communication from all the staff was clear, timely and thorough. Jim, Damian and Roberto all treated our home with respect. The contract price was the most competitive I received. I highly recommend Vanguard and will continue to rely on their very fine service! read more

Great work! Fast and professional! I would definitely recommend for anyone who need this service!

They did an amazing job. The inspection was very thorough. Treatment was quick and easy and the cost was below average.

We noticed evidence of termites over the summer. On a warmer day, a bunch of bugs appeared on our family room floor, some in the kitchen, and a few in other areas. We had a couple of larger companies come out, but we wanted to be confident that the issue was accurately assessed and handled properly. We called Vanguard for our third (yep, third) opinion on the level of infestation, and couldn't have been happier with the attention to detail, professionalism, promptness, and price point. They were even super accommodating to our pets. The solution they treat with is totally pet-safe. If you have a termite problem, call these guys. You will receive premium service at a reasonable price point. read more
