Inspected house for termite - prompt and effecient. Spot (chemical) treated limited infected area of our home - subfloor, hardwood floor, wall and window. Spot treated and replaced some termite/dry rot members of our outdoor trellis - managing to insert posts into/through existing trellis vine. Very professional, friendly, willing to go the extra mile. Moved heavy built-in furniture; a large potted plant; and took down parts of our Christmas lights and carefully put them in a box. The best. We used them 10 years ago - and were satisfied then as well.
Description of Work: Inspected, treated, repaired, and even took down and put away some of our Christmas lights!

I have used Joe's company many times over the years to keep my house free of termites and damage. I have vines growing on my house so I have never wanted to tent and Joe honored my request and has always done a thorough inspection and treated any area that may have had activity. Each year, there would be less and less termite activity so it got to be I would go a year or so before calling him in. In the last couple inspections, there was almost no activity. To prepare to get my house ready to go on the market, I asked Joe to come and do a complete inspection and treat any areas that had even the smallest possibility of activity. Joe and his crew have always arrived at the agreed time and have always been professional and considerate. Anytime I hear of anyone having termite problems, I give them Joe's contact information. JC Evans Termite ( Joe) has been fair and very reasonably priced when compared to other exterminator companies.
Description of Work: Complete inspection of house from attic to crawl space. Treated several areas where minimum termite activity was seen in and followed up to be certain accordance with the Structural Pest Control Board's Rules and Regulations were met.

same fumigation company that gave us a difficult time.
Description of Work: Joe Alvarez who did the inspection was on time and seemed thorough and honest in his estimate. But it was all down hill from there. On the day of the "tenting," the company doing the actual work came hours late. Then when they arrived, they did not have all of the necessary equipment. Joe was contacted several times to rectify this problem with the company not arriving as scheduled. He was "suprised" and "it was not like them." Really? Then the "tenting" company told us that we did not bag our food stored in the refrigerator correctly; this is after Joe demonstrated to us how it should be done. On the morning that company took down the tent, they called very early in the morning - before 7 AM. They needed the key to our house. The workers were given the key, and then they misplaced it. Joe was of no help again when we complained about the lack of responsiveness and professionalism from the company he sub-contracted with to do the actual fumigation work. And lastly, when Joe's people came to do the wood/repair work, they had to ask my husband what work needed to be done. Seriously? You are asking the customer? Of course, we were suspicious that they did not do all of the necesaary work. We asked Joe to re-inspect the property before we paid him. He reluctantly came out to the property. And we were correct. His workers did not do all of the work under the house. Joe apparently did it himself later that day. We hope. There are countless other companies in the greater LA area. Choose one of them. But beware that the inspectors generally use the

We were very pleased with the ease in which we had to tenant our garage to exterminate the termites. The company was very communicative which was very important considering we were away from the house when the job was going on. It's important to note that not all companies do termites, this one does. We would use them again and recommend them

I previously had another company come out and do a thorough inspection, and they identified a few problem spots. However, they weren't very thorough (they didn't crawl into all the spaces under the house), and their recommendation was to treat the entire house (crawl space and attic), even though they didn't find the specific problems. It seemed to be overkill, so I called JC Evans for another opinion. Joe Alvarez showed up and performed another inspection. He listened very well to what I thought were the problem spots, and he took time to crawl under the house and find the actual termite areas that the previous company missed. He took time to explain the treatment and quoted a price and upcoming service date on the spot. On treatment day, three members of the JC crew showed up on time. They were friendly, polite, and clean. Time frame went just as they said. They repaired the house trim carefully and used my paint to touch up the repairs - much appreciated because I don't have a ladder that reaches up to the top of the 2nd story. As Joe indicated, they had to drill into the front steps to spray under them, but they kept the hole small and touched up the stucco nicely. The work appears thorough - will wait until the next rains to see if we get another termite swarm!
Description of Work: JC Evans investigated and treated for subterranean termites, which included trenching and spraying the exterior foundation at the front of the house, and spraying in the crawl space under the front of the house. They also replaced small amounts of trim with dry rot damage and painted the new trim to match.

I was very happy. He repaired some of the wood damages the termites had done. It actually looks pretty nice and all the wood repairs he did were for the siding and the trims of the house. He did a really good job on that. My husband had some questions about the process and he gave very clear answers. He was truly positively impressed. All the big companies sign contract of the work to them. I would use him again and recommend him to everybody. His price was reasonable. I had a quote from another company and he was more reasonable. The inspection was more thorough.
Description of Work: I used the services of JC Evans Termite Control a couple of weeks ago. He did the ground termites and he repaired the wood damages done by the termites

Joe Alvarez arrived on time for estimate and evaluation. Courteous and professional as always. We discussed the scope of work and made an appointment. The team arrived on time and set to work promptly. Both men went about their business in orderly fashion and did not waste time. Joe stopped by to check on their progress. They were careful with the property and watchful of our dog who would have liked to play with them and their tools. When the work was done, they did a great clean up job and graciously took care of an extra task. I will continue to call them for service for this and other properties. The work of Joe and his team exceeded my expectations on every level.
Description of Work: Treatment of termite infestation in walls, eaves, beams, under entry porch, outside patio and under house. Removal and replacement of rotted flooring and subfloor in guest bath.

John came out and gave a very thorough inspection, talked me through the whole way, explained what he was looking for, what he found, signs for me to look for in the future, etc, etc. He was extremely informative, friendly, professional, and attentive to detail. He got my estimate quickly, and scheduled the work just as quickly. His team was equally professional and great to work with. They were in and out, quickly, cleaned and patched their work perfectly, and I haven't had any problems since. Great Contractor!!!

I had a small drywood infestation and damage on front of my house at the roof. Inspector Joe Alvarez explained the treatment procedure and gave me the best price out of four other estimates. The two technicians who performed the work were professtional, efficient, agreeable and did not mind my "couple of small requests". After treating and repairing damage, they painted the repair which other companies did not want to do. It looks great.
Description of Work: Sprayed the area (pesticide foam) repaired damage and painted. Also filled a couple of small miscellaneous holes and painted.

I had several companies inspect, and this company was the only one to notice the problems in the garage (which I was aware of). They performed the carpentry in the garage, redid the damaged stucco, and fumigated house and garage. They were punctual and efficient.
Description of Work: JC Evans made a thorough examination of house and garage. They recommended fumigation for dry wood termites in the house and garage, as well as subterranean termites and dry-rot in the garage. The pointed out the necessity of replacing wood in the garage and carried out this work as well.

When I detected "saw dust" in several spots around my house, I gave in to the idea that I may have termites. I contacted 2 termite companies on Angie's List and 2 others. After getting 4 inspections, I chose JC Evans. The reason was one of the companies said I would have to replace an entire shower due to water damage. Joe and 3 other disputed that. All of the companies wanted to tent. Tenting would have killed all of my landscaping and deck plants so I decided to go with spot treatment. I had a 2nd meeting with Joe to compare all of the reports and in the end I felt I was getting good and honest information from him. The work was completed in 2 days. It was like they weren't even there. Stuart and Hyman went about their work quietly and cleanly. I had expected this to be an awful experience and it wasn't. I will have them back in a year to do another inspection.
Description of Work: Stuart & Hyman treated all of the pre-designated sites where termites were found under my house, in my attic, living room parquet floors, French doors, deck railings, & deck underframing. They also treated surface fungus found under a bathroom from a previous leak.

Two representatives came out at no cost to do an estimate. They were very thorough and checked our entire wood ceiling/roof. They prepared a clear estimate detailing the areas in which they saw infestation, including an outside wood awning and posts that we had not thought of. They gave us options for how to proceed. On the day they sprayed they sent a 3 man crew and they covered all of our equipment in plastic. They sprayed the entire ceiling from the inside, and they also did the large outside awning and posts. They were courteous and worked quickly. The work includes a one year warranty.
Description of Work: JC Evans company sprayed our whole commercial building for termites. The building could not be tented because it is right against the neighbor's building.

Although this company was the most expensive of the three that examined my property and bid on the job, it was the most thorough, and the only one that found evidence of subterranean, as well as wood, termites. It handled my neighbor's concern about possible damage to her property with grace and aplomb. After I had vacated the premises, their subcontracted workers spotted food items I had neglected to bag and seal, and did it for me. My only major complaint was damage to my garden that could have been avoided if the subcontractor had asked me in advance where his workers could dig for dirt. A minor complaint was that the subcontractor rushed me when I had questions and concerns. I would definitely hire this company again.
Description of Work: The company assessed termite damage to my home. The subcontractor treated the infestation for both wood and subterranean termites, and performed minor repairs to three areas where damage was visible.

HE WILL WORK WITH ME TO FIND A CONVENIENT TIME. THEY'RE PERSONABLE, NOT INTRUSIVE. THEY CAME WHEN THEY SAID THEY WOULD. THEY DID A GOOD JOB, BUT I SORT OF HAD AN ISSUE WITH SOME TREATMENTS AROUND MY GARAGE. THEY REMOVED THINGS AROUND MY GARAGE AND DIDN'T REPLACE IT.
