Review of Prime Termite

I am a customer of Prime Termite already 9 years, ...

I am a customer of Prime Termite already 9 years, and all started when I called them for local treatment instead of fumigation since at that time I was suspecting that had a cancer. Fortunately I had no cancer, but doctors wanted to make some quick bucks, but house was foamed, and my slab kitchen was treated by against ground termites. Since it was a 2-day process, I moved from my home, though later when I found out there was no need for that.
Their extermination works fine at that time because after I called 2 more times that year, termites disappeared altogether. I also opened my kitchen walls at that time when it was falling down, and repaired tons of wall studs, etc. Kitchen was falling down because ground and subterranean termites were coming from the crack, also when you clean or even little water goes on kitchen floor, it gets sucked under the slab, and it brings termites, since they like the moisture. So, instead of them putting tons of chemicals under my kitchen slab so that later vapors will come and I would breath next 10 years, they foamed the walls instead with their natural stuff, so that it won't let termites to eat the walls. They put chemical though, but outside far from kitchen to block termite movement to my house. I had my patio eaten at least 20% by termites. They not only repaired but also put termite killing natural stuff on patching material at that time.

So, after couple of months until now I haven't seen any problems. No fumigation, no replacing patio, no kitchen fallout, no termite infestations for almost 10 years.

So, recently I decided to sell the house, and call them for inspection. . They pulled up my info right away after 10 years of service, and were ready to send inspector. The problem was they could come only after 3 days, but I was on rush and needed to check the next day. Harry told as a former customer they will see if can move some stuff on their schedule and make it happened, and would call me back by end of day. But after I made couple of phone calls to other termite companies, I quickly found someone to come next day. So, I called Harry and told there was no need for that.

So, the other termite inspector is coming, checking my home, and he is chocked - on my area having a house in such a pristine state is impossible. He told me that works on my neighborhood, and yet to see a house which was in such a state that mine. He told me that I should have replaced the whole patio and probably already done 2 fumigation during this time to keep the house in good state. Also, he told that saw no ground termites or damage.

So, I just paid $140 and he gave me my papers for escrow sale.
So, to me Prime Termite is the Mercedes of termite control in Los Angeles area since another inspector - not me or one of their inspector told me that.

I would definitely call Prime Termite if I have any issues, and highly recommend everyone. My word of appreciation for a great honest service.
