We were very satisfied with the repair they did on a beam in our crawlspace. In addition, they greatly improved the appearance with new crawlspace flooring. Finally, the cost for all of this was very reasonable.

We had a termite inspection done. Appointment making? Excellent and easy. Showed up on time? Absolutely and made contact about 30 minutes prior to arrival. Courteous, professional, efficient through out the appointment. Our report was in our 'inbox' within an hour of completion of the inspection. Would I use them…

I've been using Scout for the last 1.5 years since buying my first home. Their service is top notch, affordable, and every employee I've interacted with has been kind. They've even come out and done additional treatments on my home when I've noticed an increase in pests. Today Austin came out and he was kind, friendly, and treated my house really quickly.
