TLDR: The Local Guy Pest Service was reasonably priced, honest, and did great work. I will…read morerecommend them to everyone! Long version: My lawn mower called to tell me he "found" a nest of yellow jackets burrowed into the ground when he ran over it with his lawnmower. Fortunately he is ok and only got stung once when they swarmed out because he started taking his weed whacker to them. It was after hours when he called me so I couldn't do anything about it until the next day. I did some research and made a few phone calls, then created a Yelp project as well. Several places returned my call and insisted on doing monthly maintenance after the initial treatment, even though I insisted I wanted them gone the first time they came and didn't want to do anything monthly. I'm not unrealistic, I know it is a HUGE hazard and a big deal to get rid of the any type of hornet, but some of the prices I was being quoted were equivalent to car payments, and the others didn't offer options without the monthly fees. I was getting discouraged by how much many places were fear mongering and trying to upsell me, so on Saturday I called up the lawn guy to see if he was still willing to get rid of them for me (he had offered to take carte of them himself, but I didn't want him getting swarmed and stung again so I told him to let me make some calls first). He was hesitant, but was still willing to do it. He was going to do some checking to see what he needed to do and how and let me know how much he needed for supplies and do it the next week. Skip ahead to Sunday afternoon. On Sunday one of the companies I had called, The Local Guy Pest Control, called me back and immediately apologized for taking so long to return my call (he had been out of town). No worries, I understand that. It is a small, local, family owned business where the owner himself comes out to do the service. Great! I love to support small businesses! How much to get rid of the problem and what will you do? (By now I had a pretty good idea of what it would take to kill the colony and destroy the nest, courtesy of bee and wasp handlers form all over the country posting videos online.) The owner showed up at my house bright and early on Tuesday, within 24 hours of me agreeing to use his service Monday morning. He was at my house for about 30 minutes and got rid of the colony, then treated the nest so any stragglers who were already out for the day would die when they returned. He was fast, thorough, and efficient. The price was very reasonable for the amount of time and risk involved in the job, AND he assured me that monthly maintenance was definitely NOT needed. He offered a guarantee on his services, so if I notice renewed activity I can simply call him back to take care of it. Tuesday night I let my lawn mower know the deed was done and that he didn't need to worry about doing it. He returned Wednesday evening to mow, so I checked in with him on the status of the nest. He reported back that not one single yellow jacket came out of the hole they were in, so all was well. SO many thanks to The Local Guy Pest Service! My mom is allergic and my dog is small, so this was literally a life-saving service for them! I will go to The Local Guy Pest Service first for ALL of my future needs, you have earned a new repeat customer with this one.

We ended up with two roofing companies inspecting our roof and provide a quote for replacement. DHI was one of the companies and we ended up selecting DHI Roofing even though they were slightly higher than the other company. Hank Bartee with DHI was the gentlemen we worked with and he was courteous and professional. He was on the project site numerous times the day the roof was installed. When the project was completed and cleaned up you would never know that the roofers were even here! Hank was always making sure that the crew delivered what he had promised. I would highly recommend Hank and DHI for your roofing project. You can contact Hank at 816-289-0280.

On top of this, we had them do our home about 9 years ago or so and when they did, they caused damage to our siding and rails on porch and deck. This was thousands of dollars worth of damage. They sent some contractor to repair the damage and he wasn't that great either. Our neighbors also had their roof done and also received damage on there house. They most recently used them again, well this time they had trash all over my yard and even killed my grass on my yard. I was told by someone from DHI that they would use a magnet to pick up any nails that was leftover including on my yard. That was not the case. I used mine and found a bunch. This company is the most unprofessional company I have ever seen for roofing. They lie and deceive.
