However, recurring criticisms include technicians failing to follow specific instructions or address all requested areas during initial visits, leading to repeat service needs. Some reviewers also reported higher costs compared to competitors and communication errors from the call center that resulted in ineffective service visits.

Excellent service. Quality work.
We have the year-round contract where they come every 3 months for an inspection.
All the technicians, including the office staff, are great. They are very accommodating and work around your schedule. On the site, they are very knowledgeable and complete the job in a timely manner.
I highly recommend the yearly contract where they not only come on the scheduled 3 month visit, but also in between if you develop any problems.
Thank you.

We used Ed Laverys service for the past few years and have been disappointed throughtout the years. Although the office staff has been helpful the technicians do not following the relayed instructions. They do not follow up on the services requested. They show up to do only one thing meanwhile there are multiple requests. Many times have had to come a second time because they forgot to check other services. Some technicians were better than other in professionalism and knew what they were talking about other were condescending and dismissive. And one of the main reasons for canceling services is we still have the pests. Took at least 3 visits over 6 weeks to get rid of pest that moved insided our house and the technician dismissed it.
