These Google review excerpts come from the shared company profile for DeTect and The BrickKicker of Hampton Roads.
Read the shared company Google reviewsDetect came highly recommended from a realtor for their solid work and competitive pricing and they did not disappoint! Jeff’s customer service was fantastic and the icing on the cake.
Jeff Cope always does a great job. One of the reasons that I’m not interested in changing pest control service is Jeff is my technician… He’s always on time and goes the extra mile to take care of my concerns.
Their service and work was amazing and the prices are really good. I recommend them for all crawl space repairs and home inspections.
Nate was wonderful. Came in and did the inspection, put down the vapor barrier and did the treatment all in a timely fashion and at the price we had discussed… How refreshing.
Chris… sprayed my home in Norfolk… for fungus under the house and dropped chemicals for termites both inside and outside the foundation… Very reasonable price, great communications… three years and no issues with either fungus or pests since.
We were told we needed to replace our dehumidifier under our house… it turned out we just needed to push the reset button on the old one. Chris let us know we were good with the old one… We were refunded our money immediately. Thank you Detect for your integrity and honesty.
