    Young found a big one
    Sue M.

    It's been a while I had to trouble Young. I can smell there's a dead body or bodies in the house again! Txted Young at 7pm and he was able to response and came to the house at 9:40pm. I am so thankful of what he was able to do and even tho he wasn't able to locate the dead body but he was following up with me this morning and giving me more options of what he can do to help. Thank you Young!!!

    Posting this as a review in regards to the idiot who posted below me. Rodent proofing doesn't require a license under the CA State Structural Pest Control Board. You DO, however, need a license to use poison or any other hazardous chemicals, which was NOT ever used by this company. Jeff assured me that the raccoon that was trapped in my basement was NOT going to be harmed, only removed. if you have a problem, seek out the CA department of Consumer Affairs and have a damn good reason too instead of writing tedious, whiny complaints about something you're not well educated enough on. Idiot.

Todd and the Exotek team are all highly professional, friendly and thorough. The quote they gave me for time and materials were reasonable relative to other quotes I received. Inspection Process: 10/10 - Todd was very thorough and provided detailed information on what his crew will do to seal the exterior and interior holes, the types of materials to be used and the benefits of the materials. Service Date: 10/10 - They were very accomodating on a weekend appointment and arrived within the time window (calling me when they were 30 minutes out). The process of filling all holes/gaps inside and outside the home was completed in a timely manner and of high quality. Follow Ups: 10/10 - They came back for the next few weeks to check on traps and no additional mice/rats were found. I highly recommend Exotek!

He was able to schedule us for the first service the very next day. Nick helped us with the follow up visit and was great to work with as well. It's been about a week since our second treatment and we are not seeing any fleas. Highly recommend if you want treatment ASAP - these guys were very easy to work with and total professionals. We are very glad we went with Exotek for fleas.

    Productive Rodent Proofing - Sealed up holes around pipes

    I can't recommend Productive Rodent Proofing enough…read more A few weeks after noticing rats in the garage, I started hearing them chewing inside the walls throughout the house. If you're reading this you know how gross and violating that feels. I tried traps with no success and was starting to feel pretty stuck. I first called another company who charged me $100 for a ~10 minute "inspection." They barely looked around, guessed it was the garage door, and quoted me nearly $1,000 just to set traps. That experience left a sour taste and didn't inspire confidence. By the time the issue turned into a real infestation, I knew I needed to call in the big guns. Enter Frank and Tom. Frank came out within 30 minutes of my call and did an actual inspection... garage, full exterior, and roof. He identified multiple possible entry points and patched several of them immediately, before I had paid him anything. It was obvious right away that my problem was now his problem and he was going to solve it. A couple days later, Frank and his brother Tom came back to do the full work. They sealed all identified entry points, poured concrete forms so the garage door sat perfectly flush with the floor, cleaned up all rodent droppings, installed a one-way exit door just in case anything was still inside, and set up two cameras to monitor activity. When they were done, they charged me what other companies had quoted just to set and monitor traps. The value is unbeatable. It still blows my mind. It's been a few weeks now and both Frank and Tom are still checking in. There have been no sounds, no signs, and no activity at all and it's such a relief. You really can't go wrong with these guys.

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Tom and Frank to address a mouse problem at my…read moregrandfather's home, and I couldn't be more impressed with their exceptional customer service and professionalism. From start to finish, they made what could have been a stressful situation completely hassle-free. They arrived promptly, thoroughly inspected every corner of my home, and clearly explained the steps they would take to resolve the issue. They were incredibly knowledgeable, answering all of my questions with patience and expertise. It was clear they genuinely cared about providing a long-term solution rather than just a quick fix. The team went above and beyond by sealing every possible entry point, setting up preventative measures, and offering helpful tips to keep the home rodent-free in the future. They worked efficiently and left my home spotless. Most importantly, their efforts have worked perfectly, no more mice! I'm so grateful for their dedication and attention to detail. If you're dealing with a rodent problem or need rodent proofing, I highly recommend Productive Rodent Proofing. Their customer service is top-notch, and they truly deliver results. A big thank you to Tom and Frank!

The communication was excellent, even on a holiday weekend I got called back within an hour of reaching out with questions, which I certainly did not expect! They arrived promptly for appointments and were thoughtful about avoiding tracking dirt into our home. They worked with us to customize their work to our coastal climate and were very transparent about exactly what materials they would be using (all top of the line, industral-grade!). I have pets and toddlers and they took my concerns about chemical disinfects seriously and offered several options to make sure I was comfortable with what was used in our home. They really seem to take pride in their work and enjoyed sharing before and after pictures to demonstrate all the improvements they made to our crawl space. I could not be happier with my choice to hire them, and plan to work with them again when I'm ready to replace my attic insulation.

I had an urgent issue, and without any hesitation, they came out twice for follow-up visits to make sure everything was fully resolved. That level of responsiveness is rare and deeply appreciated. Caleb, Morris, and Sofia were both incredibly attentive, professional, and helpful throughout the entire process. They were always quick to respond to texts and messages--no delays, no runaround, just clear communication and genuine care. Jay, the owner, is equally impressive. He is very professional and took the time to thoroughly explain the entire rodent cleanup process, which gave me a lot of confidence and peace of mind. If you're looking for a company that is responsive, knowledgeable, and truly stands behind their work, I highly recommend Attic Crew. Excellent service and an outstanding team.

    Update on 6/4: There was another Venmo conflict but Tim has acknowledged the communication…read morebreakdowns and apologized for his initial response. I'm amending this review to 3 stars to reflect this accountability. He is certainly a capable specialist and does do good quality work. Going forward I hope he will be as proactive and diligent as he was in the responses tonight. I have attached screenshots to show the new change. Seen from web version of Yelp more clearly. ========================================================== 5/30 review He tried to harass me over Venmo by ranting in the $500 comment thread 19 days after this review. 13 inane, barely coherent messages that were sent on 5/30/2025 at 1 AM. The screenshots will speak for itself. I made this update same day late afternoon. This should had been the end of this particular review: short and concise. Then mere hours after posting this update a second stream of Venmo rants began in rapid succession at 10:30 PM. This time he finally remembered me as a client when this was not so in his original statement. He sneakily revised his original rebuttal to saying he remembers me but still attempted to defame me a 2ND time. I did check this page after dinner around 8-9pm. At the time it was still the original derogatory and dismissive comment. By the time I came back to update the second Venmo rant, the comment thread had grown from the original 13 posts to the even more aggressive 87 messages. Tim. I paid you close to 5k for all the jobs done, tipped you for the work (which you acknowledged and was not part of the 5k I already counted for. +tip that would inflate the actually payment to 5.5k before Venmo because I tipped you twice for two separate jobs), got you lunch & dinner, and paid all the jobs done UPFRONT. And the $500 Venmo advance payment towards that future job for your tough time was apparently worth nothing judging by your Venmo posts. I can't say any other professionals I hired ever got this level of consideration. I did everything I could as a good client, but you were the one who chose not to act until Yelp gave you trouble. I made multiple attempts to work with you on scheduling but you did nothing. So I exercised my right as a client to post this factual, genuine review about your business practices. In response, you feigned ignorance, called me fake, and tried to ruin my credibility not just once, but twice. Then you escalated to threats and insults against me and my family members in the Venmo thread, with two separate outbursts (one in the morning and one at night). All of this: the threats, insults and mudslinging; is clearly documented in the screenshots I'm providing. Additional photos can be seen from the web version of Yelp.
