Description of Work: They inspected my house for pest/termites. They asked for my concerns and I told the inspector that I had problems with ants coming inside. The ants are still a problem to this day.

Response from A-1 Inc Exterminators
We are sorry to hear that the member has an ongoing ant problem but this is the first we are hearing about it. We performed the service for our Home Pest Advantage Plan on April 8, 2016. Everything went well and there were no issues. We haven't heard a word from this member since that day. I wish they had called us. This has been a particularly odd year with lots and lots of rain and then extreme temperatures. The insect world is a bit upside down. But we can't fix things that we don't know are broken. All we can ever ask is that if there any issues at all with any of our services, just call us. Our office is open with a full staff Monday through Friday and on Saturday mornings.

Description of Work: The termite inspection confirmed my suspicion that my home had termites(not active but evidence of activity found). The tech set up an appointment and treated the home. Holes were drilled at 12" intervals around the house(slab foundation) and treatment injected. Both of the workman were very professional and the job was done quickly and neatly. No more termites...nice people to work with!

Response from A-1 Inc Exterminators
We do not know what this member is unhappy about regarding service from our company. The member has had service with us since 2013. We have visited the member's home six separate times, performing services the member ordered, since then with the last visit being September 24, 2015. Each and every visit has gone very well. All of our appointments are scheduled with our customers at their convenience and all are given reminder calls the day before. We have no notes in our system that the member was ever dissatisfied with anything at all. In fact, the notes I do have state that she was quite satisfied and the member is still an active customer of ours. Of course, if there is ever an issue we only ask that the customer contact us. Our office is open every day and the phones are answered by office staff all day long, no voice mail systems. We can correct almost anything if we know about it. We hope the member will let us know what problems there are when we next have contact.

Response from A-1 Inc Exterminators
We understand that this member is not happy but it would help other AL members to know why. This member purchased a second service from us (at a discounted price). He needed a report done for a the sale of his property and there were problems found that had to be addressed to satisfy the buyer and their mortgage company. The member did not want to have to do any of the work and so did not pay us for the report provided. When home sellers have to get these reports to sell a home and there are problems, they are never happy as anyone can understand but the company still has to pay the technician that provided the inspection and report and so the company has to be paid. Payment for services rendered cannot be dependent upon the customer being happy with the results of an inspection.

Description of Work: On time for the appointment! Professional as always, used three times before. I've been having a freak house fly infestation for the last 3 years, usually the first week of April and had finally had enough. A-1 Came out, unfortunately they were all dead by that time and after careful inspection of the house, inside and out; crawl space and the yard, the Technician couldn't find any reason for a house fly infestation. So we came up with a plan for next year, which is I will call at the first sign of them coming in and they will come right over. |
