Customer reviews for Aardvark Termite Control and Construction

Rene, the manager is argumentative, moody and talks over his customers. He has forgotten customer is always right, customer service, and who PAYS his bills. His actions over the phone turned a five star review into a one star! Easy too see why Aardvark's reviews are so low! His actions were TOTALLY unacceptable!

Provider response

Brett,<br><br>I am sorry our recent conversation did not meet your expectations.<br><br>We have worked with you for several years and appreciated the positive relationship we shared, including the 5-star review you previously left for our company. For that reason, we were disappointed to learn that this most recent discussion left you dissatisfied.<br><br>We understand your concerns and attempted to explain the scope of the recommended treatment, the included follow-up application, and the options available for future monitoring.<br><br>Our goal has always been to provide honest recommendations, clear communication, and professional service based on the findings of each inspection.<br><br>We appreciate the opportunity to have served you over the years and wish you the very best moving forward.<br><br>– Rene Romo<br>Aardvark Termite Control & Construction

Do not hire this company. I authorized all work from the inspection plus two small additions. This morning, the owner, Jim, left me a voicemail saying that I had to draw up my own plans for the permits because I “knew all the dimensions.” I tried to explain that his inspector had already come out and made changes to the original plans, and that I needed the updated plans and estimates in order to apply for permits. He hung up on me mid-conversation. When I called back, the office manager, Renee, answered and said he was aware that Jim had hung up on me but “could not speak about it.” There was no apology or attempt to resolve the issue. When you hire a company, you should be able to expect basic support, professionalism, and respect. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here. Renee initially spoke very highly of the company, which made me feel comfortable, but that turned out to be misleading. This business is unprofessional and difficult to work with. I would not recommend them.

Provider response

The call referenced in this review unfortunately disconnected during the conversation. I immediately called back and left a voicemail to continue the discussion and clarify the permitting process.<br><br>Permits and plan submissions are handled directly through the local building department, and in some cases homeowners are required to submit certain documentation themselves.<br><br>We regret that there was confusion during this process.<br><br>— Jim, Owner<br>Aardvark Termite Control & Construction

Excellent communication by manager throughout the process from inspection to treatment. Respectful and professional. Answered questions quickly and provided thorough explanation of inspection process, treatment, and notification of timing of services.

Provider response

Lori, thank you for taking the time to share your experience.<br><br>We believe clear communication and transparency are just as important as the treatment itself, so we truly appreciate you recognizing that. Our goal is always to make the inspection and treatment process straightforward and stress-free.<br><br>Thank you for trusting us with your home.<br>Rene Romo<br>Mgr

I had a client who needed a pest inspection in Lake County on a tight timeline, and Aardvark Termite Control and Construction was able to be very flexible with scheduling to accommodate my clients’ needs. They were thorough in their inspection and took the time to explain what they were seeing, which really helped put my clients at ease. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the entire process. As a real estate professional, it’s important for me to work with vendors who are reliable and easy for my clients to work with, and Aardvark delivered on all of that. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone in Lake County needing a pest inspection or termite work.

Provider response

Faith, we truly appreciate your trust in referring your clients to us. We understand the demands of real estate timelines and strive to provide thorough, clearly documented inspections that support smooth transactions.<br><br>It means a great deal to be considered a reliable resource in Lake County. Thank you for your continued confidence in our team.<br><br>Rene Romo<br>Mgr.

We couldn’t be more thrilled with the incredible work and professionalism of this team. From start to finish, they delivered above and beyond—rebuilding our deck with such care, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Every interaction was smooth, thoughtful, and solution-oriented. They respected our space, timeline, and vision, and the end result is truly stunning. It has completely transformed how we experience our outdoor space. It’s rare to find a team this dedicated, communicative, and talented. We feel so lucky to have worked with them and can’t recommend them highly enough! Thank you for everything—you made this project a dream.

5 Stars I had a great experience with Aardvark Termite Control! They were fast, efficient, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process.

It was a smooth experience, and I really appreciate their professionalism and quick response time. Highly recommend!

Professional, friendly and with timely appointments for inspections and fast turn around time. Have used their services both for myself and for clients buying or selling homes dozens and dozens of times. Appreciate that inspectors are willing to pick up the phone or meet up with clients to explain reports and findings. Front office run extremely well by Rene Romo. When utilizing their services for repairs - I have found the work to be completed fast and competently. Great company.

Provider response

Thank you for the great review. It has been a pleasure serving you, and your clients. We look forward to providing the same quality of service or better in the near future.

I needed to get a second opinion on the original inspection report. They responded quickly and provided an inspection. The office manger, Rene was great to work with and took care of the entire process. From the inspection to fumigation. The fumigation service was provided by a subcontractor and they did great job too.

Provider response

Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We're glad we could provide the second opinion you needed and that you had a great experience with our team. I’m happy to hear that everything from the inspection to the fumigation went smoothly and that you were pleased with our services and the work done by the subcontractor. We truly appreciate your feedback and your business! If you ever need anything else, feel free to reach out.<br><br>Best regards,<br>Rene, <br>Office Manager

I wouldn't recommend this business to my worst enemy! We got a pest and fungus inspection for our VA loan as they require section 1 items to be completed. Almost 4 months later the house we been working on is all fixed. Taken months to get the inspections done as something has always came up. We were dealing with dry rot. They had "recommended" that we replace the sliding glass door with a new one as it leaks. After we pulled it out, repaired the dry rot we found out that the siding was not all the way down had about an 1x4 inch gap where water was leaking in. So we reinstalled the same door as it wasn't the issue. We sprayed an water hose onto the door no leaks whatsoever... now they are refusing to come out to pass the house due to us reinstalling the same door!! We are seeking legal action on this! They also had called out spots along the siding that were supposedly rotted. We removed the siding come to find out it was perfectly good. He was sticking his poker up under the z-bar where the seam of the siding was located. We got pictures of that as well as the scarpes that came off the wall. We got pictures of the scrapes on the sheet of siding going underneath the z-bar. I think they are just trying to carry it out for as long as they can so the report will expire and we would have to purchase a new one. Which would never happen not with this horrible company!! Just wanted to give an heads up to all who are looking to get their house inspected for an loan requirement. My best advice is to use another company.

Company misrepresented the work they were supposed to do. Lied repeatedly about what was needed and used incorrect materials. Very unhappy with these people. Posted for my friend.

Completely unrealistic. Conflict of interest. Would not recommend to anyone. They came around and signed off for everything, but not after putting us through the ringet

Very disappointed. Creates issues that aren't there and then charges outrageous prices to fix it. If you don't use them to fix your issues then they won't sign you off. You should be able to hire who you want to complete repairs without having to worry they will fail your inspection.

Provider response

Although this was a long time ago, we have always been able to sign off on other trades to do the repairs. We have had many customers use their own contractor and we've signed off on thousands of homes in Lake and Mendocino Counties. If a repair is not properly done, as recommended in the report it won't pass. Patching or covering with paint, not being able to view an open area for extra damage, wood putty instead of replacement, these are just a few examples of things we run into that people expect to be signed off. We are always happy to explain our policy in detail.

Highly recommend! My husband and I have worked with Aardvark multiple times and wouldn’t use anyone else. We have always received prompt and thorough service with a smile. Reports have been very detailed both on paper and directly from the inspector. They have always gone above and beyond to ensure that we feel secure and satisfied with their work. Great customer service, friendly, and knowledgeable!

Wonderful Service! There office manager Jessica is very prompt and follows up with you in a very timely manner. They have always answered my calls, and the inspectors followup with you after they have performed the inspections. They provide a quick turn around on reports and had the minor section 1 item repaired within a day. I would recommend these guys to to any realtor and buyer I know.

Provider response

Thank you for such a nice review Brent! It was a pleasure to work with you and we hope you will contact us if we can help again in the future. - Jessica
