Reliance Pest & Termite Inc

Pest Control, Home inspection, Foundation Repair,

About us

Contrary to popular belief, insects and other home intruders aren’t a sign of a dirty or neglected property, but inevitable if your property isn’t being treated and protected. We understand that virtually every home or business will, at one time or another, deal with the issue of unwanted non-human visitors. The problem is more than an inconvenience. It can affect your health, your business, your ability to have friends and family in your home, even how you sleep at night. In some cases, insects, mice, and other creatures can damage the structural integrity of your property, chewing holes in the wood, the insulation, and the walls. If you need Tidewater, VA pest control that takes an aggressive and proactive approach to fighting your problem and protecting your property from further damage, Reliance Pest has the solutions you need. All of our treatments are safe for humans and pets, do not damage the environment, and focus on preventing intruders rather than killing them, whenever possible. If you’re ready to take a stand and take back your home or business, it’s time to call us for a free consultation and price quote.

It was fine. They said we needed some work under the house which we know we need but they're not the company we're gonna choose for that. They were fine. They were very nice. They were professional.

The guy was friendly and helpful but really didn't do anything I couldn't have done with some bug spray. All he really did besides spray a little chemical was try and sell an ongoing plan. I understand - they run a business, but I was never interested in a long term deal or I would have searched for that.

I was quite happy with the nearly immediate end of bugs.
Description of Work: Technician sprayed inside the house & garage, politely answering all my questions as he went along. He also treated outside the house (ant & cricket issues) & set a bait station because I had old evidence of a mouse. He also said I'd get a reminder notice when the next treatment was due.

Reliance Pest and Termite TRULY embodies the word "RELIANCE". From my call to arrange the service to the pre-appt. call confirming the appt. to the OUTSTANDING serviceman to follow-up call post the service. Absolutely beautiful!! The service man was very attentive and took notes regarding my concern for insects. I was beginning to see more spiders around my home "inside almost every room and outside". The service man extremely thorough and took his time vs spray-running. He walked slowly with more attention to detail than I could ever expect!! I have not seen 1 spider inside or outside of house following this appt. I AM 100% satisfied with Reliance and highly recommend!!

Not so well. No guarantees or anything like that. We actually ended up just going with the regular like big extermination company and we have been very happy with them. You don't get guarantees like most other companies will say what service they have and if you see any activity they call us back and they will come back free of charge but they don't do anything like that.
Description of Work: I used Reliance Pest & Termite Inc, they came out like for the one service and we didn't see any results. They came out and like sprinkled some powder around the kitchen.

I purchased the $85, One-Time Preventative Pest Control Deal from Reliance Pest Control. I called to set up an appointment and the office administrator was very helpful and courteous. They were able to work around my schedule, and had availability for that same week. Vernon arrived on time and was very polite and personable. He went around the inside of my house and sprayed and then sprayed the exterior of my house. He also inspected the crawl space for pests and informed me that some of my insulation had fallen, but no signs of termite damage. He told me about how I could save money with the company's pest and termite contracts, which I will be discussing with my husband. He took his time and answered all my questions; I'm a little worried that I might have made him late for his next appointment. It was a good experience, and I will definitely be using them if I encounter any future pest control problems. I would also highly recommend them to others with pest problems or wanting pest control protection!

Overall, outstanding job. I was contacted quickly after purchasing the big deal coupon. I explained that I had a spider problem. I was told who my specialist would be (Carlton) and an appointment was set. Carlton showed up on time. Treated the exterior front with granuals and because I have dogs that had free access in the back, sprayed the back yard. He then sprayed in the house especially the corners. Great job!

The service provider showed up on time with knowledge of the problem I was having with spiders. He was answered all my questions about the safety of the chemicals to children and pets and provided good advice on frequency of pest control treatment to keep the population of spiders and other bugs down. Very friendly and even removed the spider webs from around the perimeter of the house as he sprayed. I will definitely use this company again and follow his advice for 4 times/year treatment.

The gentleman showed up as scheduled and he was alright. He was quite friendly and amicable. I was definitely interested in the termite control they did do that part as well. There were no additional charges beyond the big deal amount. Looking at their equipment I don't think they're ready. I would not use them for a big project.

Overall the job went very well, no problems with the company and the issue of rodents getting into the attic was resolved.
Description of Work: The pest inspector arrived on time and made a thorough examination of the attic and around the house. He identified the problem and showed us where the rodent was getting access to the attic. Pellets were put down and the inspector returned 30 days later to check and make sure the problem had been solved. Was easy to work with and timely.

I am sorry to hear that you were not happy with the service. The 1 time single family home pest service was performed on 05/13/13 and we spoke with the homeowner on 06/11/13. At that time he stated that everything was okay. Unfortunately a one time service is not going prevent future infestations therefore we recommend a continuing maintenance program. If there are any questions please don't hesitate to call our office. Wayne Kessinger Owner

I would like to thank the staff at Reliance Termite & Pest Control (Cheryl, Joanne, Dan & Vernon) for moving their schedule around to accommodate my client's needs. And a special thanks to Wayne Kessinger for taking the time to come meet my client with such short notice and after hours to educate him on the identification and treatment process for termites and moisture damage, looking under the crawl space following a treatment and for ensuring that my client is fully satisfied. He went above and beyond and I am so very grateful. I always recommend you to co-broke agents, people I come across and to my clients because you are by far the best in the business. I will continue to give you my highest recommendation. Thank you! ~ Rebecca Keeney, REALTOR®, Prudential Towne Realty
Description of Work: The entire team at Reliance went above and beyond to ensure that my6 client was fully satisfied and that his new home was fully treated and in time for the settlement date. My client had last minute concerns and Wayne Kessinger, after a long work day, took the time to come meet my client and explain the process of identifying and treating termites and moisture damage. He spent more than an hour explaining the intricacies and ensured that my client was fully satisfied. I enjoy aligning myself with business professionals that maintain such high standards of practice and take such excellent care of my clients.
