Description of Work: I called them about getting rid of mice. The guy arrived late, did not have a GPS and got lost. He was very nice and knew a lot about critters. He did identify ways the mice were coming in the house, but wanted over $2,000 to close the holes. That seemed outrageously high for what is simple work. So I hired another contractor to do the work, and they only charged $500! It took 2 workers only 3 hours to get all of it done. ATR charged by the item, not by the hours worked, so it raised the price way too high. I might call on them again to identify access routes to critters, but not to do the work of closing access routes, unless they bring their prices way down. I paid him $150 for identifying the problem areas.

Description of Work: AT&R did an inspection and a test to confirm that something lives under our house. We did not pursue the trapping but we will use AT&R when we decide to. They were very responsive, prompt, easy to schedule, knowledgeable, and polite. I would have confidence in their work.

Description of Work: Paul attended to the problem we had (hearing noise in walls). He set traps in the basement closet and checked them for about seven days. He installed galvanized metal to the attic exhaust fan. He screwed ends of the ridge vent to the roof. Finally, Paul screened the gable end vents. |We were very pleased with the service we received from Paul.

I was especially pleased with ATand R's responsiveness and the fact that they shared my goal of humanely rescuing the animal, if possible. Paul was knowledgeable and thorough. The work was done quickly and professionally.
Description of Work: A squirrel had become trapped in my chimney. I thought it had escaped, but called for help to make sure. Initially, they came to attempt a rescue, if needed. Unfortunately, the squirrel had died, so it became a retrieval. Subsequently, their representative did a survey of my house to see where other points of entry for animals might be and recommended various types of work to prevent entry by wildlife. While doing that, he discovered that some animal (probably a raccoon) had at some time pushed in the screen of the attic fan and entered the attic. He put tape in place that would capture evidence if a creature were actively using that entrance and came back several days later to check it. I then had them do the recommended preventive work.

Early this summer, we heard noises in our kitchen and realized that it must be an animal. Called several companies, and ATand R was the most responsive - he came out even though it was Father's Day! He charged $100 for the inspection, diagnosed we had multiple mice going in and out of the house, and gave us an estimate for trapping and sealing. We decided to first try on our own, but after several months still were not rid of the mice and asked him to do the sealing of the house (we still had traps out, so he did none of the trap setting.) We have not found any more mice since he did the work, and the work was meticulously done. I don't recall the exact price - think it was around $550 - not cheap, but others would have charged similarly.
Description of Work: Sealing up our house so mice would no longer come in and out. House has a 1200 sq ft footprint.

They were very professional. We had a snake living under our air conditioner. They came out. He was not there; they would have trapped him and taken him away. They gave us very good information to check the whole house and we were able to make the changes ourselves. So it was very good service. We will use them in the future, if we need to.

There were some holes on the side of the wall done by animals they repaired them so that they can’t access those anymore. They did a good job. They were very friendly, and I did not have any problems with them. They were very responsive. The job was extremely hard, and then finally the raccoons were trapped. I called them to inform about it, and they came immediately to have them removed. The person who attended my call at the office was very nice. She delivered my messages. The owner was very good in explaining things to me.
Description of Work: This report was collected via a telephone interview with one of our members. Angie's List posts grades and other quantitative details as soon as the report is received. A transcription of this interview will be available soon.

It was truly the best experience we've ever had with a contractor of any kind. Donna, who works in the office at A T and R was so pleasant, efficient and professional. Phil (the gentleman who did the actual work at the house) was incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, professional and a real craftsman. They (at A T and R) were always mindful of accomodating our schedules, taking good care of our property and making sure we were using the most ethical method of "eviction" of the animal. Both my husband and I are wildlife lovers and were concerned about the animal as well as our house. A T and R has a reputation of being the best and most ethical where the animal's welfare is concerned. They were worth every penny!
Description of Work: We were awakened by a raccoon that got into our attic. We called A. T. & R first thing the next morning and they were out at our house that afternoon to begin the process of "evicting" the animal. They inspected the entire outside of the house (including the roof) as well as the attic. They were able to determine the animal gained access through the roof. They put forth options that we had and then started the process of trapping the animal (in a humane trap). We felt had no choice bec. our roof was in terrible shape and needs to be replaced. They were successful in trapping the animal and removing it from our home. At a rather small cost (in addition to the trapping/removal fee) they repaired the extensive damage the raccoon did to the roof. They did a beautiful, professional job!

The service was excellent. Paul explained the whole process in detail and was very clear up front as to how long it would take, the steps that were involved and the likely cost. He never overpromised and was extremely humane in his approach to the trapped squirrels, which was a relief particularly to our 10 year-old daughter! We were also able to reach the office when we needed to and received quick and clear responses. We would use ATand R again and recommend them without reservations.

The work turned out to be excellent. They were very prompt. They helped me find the problem and we ended up not having to trap anything because whatever lived in my attic never came back. They then helped me with the exclusion work. They completed the work very promptly in a couple of days. They charged the money they said they would. I was very satisfied with their work. The day I called them they came right away to look at the problem. They came back after the thanksgiving to find out if there was something that had come out. There were no animals there. They started the work on Monday and finished it on Tuesday. They were very good. I got what I asked for. The price was right on with the other companies.

Phil was hands down the nicest contractor ever to visit our house, and we would frankly enjoy having him over for dinner with our family. He was on time, extremely knowledgeable about pest control, and found the problem fairly quickly. He continued, however, to survey our home inside and out and was very thorough and comprehensive. I was most impressed when he practically dove into the crawl space under our kitchen to find evidence of rodents. Neither the appraiser nor the home inspector went under there when we bought the house, and we wish they had! He even gave us expert advice on landscaping, plumbing, roofing, home maintenance, and masonry!
Description of Work: Inspected our house for mouse entry points. Very comprehensive, thorough and knowledgeable!

Excellent. Prompt, professional and successful.
Description of Work: We have had mice for over a year, and our experiences with traditional pest control services were discouraging. We finally decided to try this instead, and it was a great decision. Phil looked all over the house, inside and out, and figured out where they were getting in. He proposed a solution.

We had oppossums getting into our air-conditioning ducts, and eventually into our basement. Phil came out from ATand R trapping the day we called and did a thorough job of examining things and figuring out the problem. He immediately went to work to trap and take away the critters. Also came out at night on very short notice for an emergency call. After making sure the oppossums were out he proceeded to critter-proof the holes in our foundation and walls and re-route dryer vent. All work was done well, professionally, and fairly-priced.

It was $100 for the inspection and then $200 to install the screens on the roof. We went ahead and followed their recommendations, but I felt the price was high. However, I did not do any comparison shopping. They were professional and responsive. I would use them again in the future and would recommend them to others.
Description of Work: We were concerned that mice were in our garage and may have gotten into our walls. They came and inspected the area and filled in some holes. They put some screens on our gable end vents on our roof and caulked and filled in around holes in the garage. The installing of the screens was a recommendation they made for us, and that was an extra charge.
