Report
Ledford's has provided termite and pest control for our home and property from the time of construction some time prior to our moving in. Our home is wood frame, and located in a relatively low-elevation, "damp" part of town. We have continued Ledford's service over the fourteen years we've lived in the house. We've had no significant pest problems, and just as importantly Ledford's has maintained attentive, consistent, responsive and thorough service throughout that period of time. Over this time we've come to appreciate more and more Ledford's dedication to this standard of service.

We switched to Ledfords for our quarterly pest control (standard CHS bug issues) after significant breakthrough bugs with our previous service. So far, so good! Will certainly update this review if we have significant problems. Sherrick did a nice job at our house. He was on time, quick, professional and targeted the areas I requested.

We have been a customer of Ledfords for six (6) years and it has always been a positive experience with the professionalism and kindness the entire staff exhibits which includes the technicians that come to the house to the office staff that helps assist me with appointments and payments. We have had Maurice out the past few times for service calls and he's about the nicest and most professional employee we've encountered. Thank you.
