Typical job

What homeowners notice: In early autumn, a homeowner notices insects gathering on an upstairs window on the sunny side of the house, and a few more appear inside the room near the light.
What we do: The technician checks the screen from inside and outside, finds a loose corner in the frame and checks the attic vent on the same wall. The openings are listed in the report, with a screen repair named as the first step.
What to expect: The written report lists the screen repair and the vent check, and the homeowner decides on the order of the work, with the price approved before any repair is made.

Typical job

What homeowners notice: Insects are seen flying in and out of a gap under a shed eave, close to the path to the barn, and the homeowner is unsure whether the nest is active.
What we do: The technician keeps people and pets clear, confirms the insect and the nest from a safe distance, then treats the entrance by label in the evening when activity is lower. The gap in the eave is recorded for a repair.
What to expect: The report notes the method, the time to stay clear of the entrance and the soffit repair that would stop a new nest starting in the same place.

What homeowners notice: A homeowner finds small moving insects in a bag of flour and in an open box of cereal, and wonders whether the rest of the pantry is affected.

What to expect: The report lists the items removed, the cleaning done and the storage advice, and the homeowner keeps a follow-up option in case the activity returns.

Typical job

What homeowners notice: A buyer of an older house near the Missouri River wants a written look at the building before closing, including the foundation and the attic.
What we do: The technician inspects the outside walls and foundation, checks the attic from its access point and inspects the crawl space where it is safe to enter. The damp near the foundation and the gaps around the utility lines are recorded.
What to expect: The buyer receives a written report listing the signs found, the areas that could not be checked and the repairs recommended, and decides how to use it in the purchase.

Typical job

What homeowners notice: A homeowner in Baldwin sees chewed leaves on shrubs that have grown into the wall and a mulch bed piled against the foundation.

What to expect: The report recommends the planting changes first, lists any treatment with the wait before pets and children return, and notes the price approved before the work.
