    The Truck (09/13/17). #PanoramaCity #TheValley #SFV #DieBugs
    Jeff B.

    (Serviced 09/13/17 WE @ 10:00am...and many times before): When you needed to "do away" with and gained control of those pesky pests! Dewey Pest Control of Van Nuys has been part of my family's rental property business for nearly 10 years. Having recently taken over the Property Management responsibilities - which included a building in Van Nuys - I've gotten familiar with this particular branch of the organization and its various technicians. Would they continue to do my family and I proud...or would their extermination be considered!?: The Company - Founded by Ray M. Dewey in 1929, it began as a one-man operation that has since flourished into an organization of hundreds of technicians, crew workers, inspectors, fumigators, and office personnel. In 1977, Steven R. Dewey purchased the company from his father. Today, this family-owned business has 32 branches throughout California. They offered a slew of pest control services based on one's needs. Standard Monthly Service ($52.00) - This chosen service treated the given property once a month for general pest control of a myriad of critters (ants, mice, roaches, spiders, silverfish, etc.) which included up to two units, any laundry and storage rooms, and the entire exterior. Sadly, this didn't include bedbugs or bees which were expensive separate charges. This specific service was just right for the particular 8-unit complex this branch covered. Service - From the time I called and usually spoke with one of the many friendly and helpful Customer Service Reps. at the end of the previous month to schedule treatment for the following month to having dealt with the various technicians the date of the treatment, everyone along the way has been easy to work with and professional. When you made an appointment, you were usually given a 2-hour courtesy window, which wasn't bad at all. A special shout-out went to Chris Merino who has been our Technician for the past couple of years. His cheerfulness, efficiency yet attention-to-details (his service calls lasted between 15-25 minutes total), informative knowledge, and patient demeanor were always appreciated. Parking (N/A) - Since their business was all about coming to your location, out of courtesy you tried to have a convenient spot for them to park their vehicle https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=a5E-RA4yfjbRtlnV6hg-zg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Otherwise, they were more than happy to park out on the street. Atmosphere, décor, ambience - Although they had an actual office building, that was rather inconsequential since the real place of business was at any given property where the service was needed to be done. Attire - Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. Overall, Van Nuy's Dewey Pest Control branch has served my family well for nearly 10 years, and I was impressed with my nearly three years of having worked directly with them. Sure, you might've found cheaper prices elsewhere, but whenever possible I liked to support small family-owned businesses. Furthermore, Chris' excellent customer service was something the company should commend and be proud of. I found total value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $52.00; NO tip required). And...they accepted my credit card of choice...AMEX! 5.0 STARS

    I'd like to update my review since my first stellar review was for the initial estimate process…read moreonly and I said I would update (but forgot). It's been 5 years and we've had plenty of people up in our attic since Rodent Masters completed our job and any time someone goes up there, I beg them to check and double check to ensure there are no rodent droppings. During this time, we have not heard a peep in the attic which is a complete 180 from what we were hearing before - it always sounded like the rats were having a party up there in the middle of the night. The process took about a month from start to finnish because the first thing they do is cover and patch all holes or entrances up so that nothing can get in (or out) and not just outside of the house but inside the attic and inside every single area from within the house. It's a LOT of work but they did it very well. Then, they came back and, in our case, because things were so bad, they sucked out all of the insulation and then reinsulated the entire attic with much higher quality material than what had been removed. Then they came back on final time to ensure there was no activity. So, I have no reason not to continue recommending Rodent Masters and I have for the last 5 years. I do think I will contact them soon though just to have someone do a walk around to ensure there are no new holes that have developed since they were last here. Highly recommend and I'm glad to see that the reviews continue to be outstanding since the one I gave 5 years ago!

I spent a comprehensive amount of time perusing all of the different options in Los Angeles -- there are a lot of options -- and finally decided upon Rodent Professor based upon proximity and reviews. I wanted an estimate not only on rodent prevention but also disinfecting the basement and vacuuming up the existing rodent droppings. Since this is the first time I have used such a service, I did not know what sort of cost was involved and was surprised to see online estimates ranging into the thousands of dollars, so I prepared myself for the assumed cost. Nate from Rodent Professor came out promptly at the appointed time and inspected the entire house -- basement, attic, inside the house itself -- and pointed out several potential points of entry into the basement and attic. Later in the day, I received an estimate via email that was in the expected cost range but at the lower end. I decided to proceed with the work. Nate and crew showed up promptly on time and were very efficient in screening all of the openings in the house, in addition to disinfecting the basement and vacuuming. Since their service, I've heard nothing and seen nothing in terms of rodent activity. This positive review is based upon several aspects of their service: excellent communication, being on time, efficiency of work and total overall cost. Highly recommended.

I had him over for some attic rat…read moredropping clean up along with some maintenance of attic insulation that had degraded over time and rodent proofing. He was very knowledgeable and very detail oriented. He showed me everywhere that he would seal for rodent proofing. His pricing was exactly where I would put it. He was able to fit me in in a week and on the day of the job he had 4 guys; 2 of which were family members. They were all very professional and worked very quickly and well. I had a lot of wires and lines running in the attic and was worried some of them would get damaged (I know my fault and they should have been tacked up to begin with) but they worked around them and nothing was damaged. I was also worried about my roof since it was just done with lightweight concrete but no tiles were broken. They setup portable walls that were sealed with contractors plastic sheeting so any dust/contaminants were sealed away and directed at a HEPA filter. They finished the 1300 sqft attic and also the garage attic in about 6 hours and it looked perfect. I was very impressed. They even removed about 50ft of old HVAC piping from the garage attic (when they probably could have left it). I feel like it's very hard to find contractors along with their team that truly take pride in their work in this day in age but Leo and his team are the exception. It helps that it is a family owned and run business which mean they really care about their clients and also the work done. I will be recommending Leo Home Solutions to anyone that needs similar work done!

They sealed the house, cleaned the attic thoroughly, and set up traps, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. Their pricing was fair--not the cheapest, not the most expensive--but the quality of their work and service was absolutely worth it. From start to finish, the team was professional, reliable, and true to their word. They arrived exactly when they said they would, and Cesar and Edgar did an excellent job. They worked extremely hard, paid close attention to detail, and made sure everything was done right. Before choosing Leo Home Solutions, I had contacted another exterminator who inspected my home and provided a quote. Even before doing any work, they repeatedly asked--and texted--for a 5-star review, which felt unprofessional. Although that company was slightly less expensive, I am incredibly grateful I trusted my instincts and went with Leo Home Solutions instead. Leo Home Solutions is honest, professional, and truly does outstanding work. I would 1000% recommend them to anyone dealing with rats or similar issues.
