James from the Fallston/Bel Air office has come out several times and has done an outstanding job in helping to prevent bugs from entering my house. He is always thorough and willing to spray in hard to reach places inside the house. A couple of years ago, he helped get rid of a nasty bees nest that had formed inside underneath my steps and nothing has come back since. I highly recommend him and Home Paramount to get rid of pests inside your house.

Description of Work: We used Home Paramount for two services--regular extermination and termite control. Their extermination services are fine and we really like our regular service person, Chuck. However the termite services were awful--way overpriced and ineffective. We did have a termite infestation and we had no recourse against Home Paramount. Basically they disclaimed any responsibility despite our paying for their most modern service for many years and it cost us a great deal of money to repair the damage. In fact, during the initial inspection when we first discovered a problem, they initially took the position that it was a moisture and not a termite issue but they recanted once we provided proof that it was in fact termites. So we saw no value in using them in the future and unsure what we were paying for all those years.

This is a great group of folks. However, they show up without setting up appointments and so rotine inspections and service is not performed since we are not home or it is at an inconvienent time. I purchased routine pest inspection on top of termite control . I have a problem with ants which is the main reason for the pest inspection/ treatment. I don't see any noticable difference and unfortunatley find ants all the time in the pet food bowl. I like that the service people always show up in a uniform and are very courteous and nice but I can't see visible outcomes to the service I'm purchasing... (Like no ants!)

Home Paramount has been my exterminator for almost a decade. Their prices are competitive, they show up when they say they will and, on the very few occassions it was required, they were responsive to calls for service in between standard quarterly visits. Their exterminators are always friendly, professional and efficient.

I picked them because I had friends who recommended them to me. I thought they were very responsive and professional. The people that I dealt with were very friendly and helpful. Anyone would want to pay lesser than what they actually pay. The quality of the job was very good. Their professionalism was very good as well.
Description of Work: I used Home Paramount Pest Control for pest control services. I had termite treatment done and they gave me a warranty for that.

The pest control part is good, they do a good job. For several years prior, I had them inspect for termites and it became an exercise in them trying to terrify me into buying additional services. I mentioned that to the office and they took care of that. I think they hired some new people. I think the price is crazy cheap but I have never done an actual price comparison.

I guess that I feel okay about the service. It really depends on which service technician comes out to do the work. I don't have any problems with pests, so they are treating them correctly, but I've never felt they go above and beyond to outdo the competition.
Description of Work: They treat our home twice a year for pests, specifically, ants and termites.

I am so happy to be rid of the mice! Home Paramount was very responsive when I called to get someone out to fix the problem. They left a few of those sticky glue traps for me to use if I had any more trouble with the mice. They also did a nice job getting rid of the ants and roaches.
Description of Work: This pest service sprayed our house for black ants and roaches. They also take care of our yearly termite inspection and got rid of a mice problem. They charged $300 for the job that included getting rid of the mice. Typically, they have a flat rate of $70.
