We had purchased a big deal for the service, and they were good. We have chosen to go with them for the treatment.

He showed up on time, and did a thorough inspection of the entire house, highlighting potential entry points for rodents in the roof, attic, basement, and garage. he took pictures and provided a report, within the promised time, which highlighted these potential points of entry, as well as an estimate for repairs. To date, we have not retained thus provider to perform the suggested repairs.

I bought the coupon for inspection from Angie's list. Brian went far beyond identifying pest control problems and highlighted other issues in the house. He was very thorough and knowledgeable. I have complete confidence in recommending him.

We called Brian because we were getting high humidity levels and had bats in our roof space. He did an extremely thorough inspection of the house, and was back very promptly to deal with both problems. He responds immediately to emails and his team did very neat and effective work ? like beautiful caulking and invisible sealing where very rough-and-ready work had been done previously - and they dealt with every single one of the many issues that Brian spotted in his inspection. Brian really does seem to know about how to exclude animals humanely and effectively, and with both jobs he took pride in using the most effective materials. He was great to work with ? friendly and businesslike, and he offered advice on several issues that didn't profit his company directly. It really was great to work with Brian, and we recommend him strongly.

My neighbors house is joint to mine. Since he could not handle my neighbors side as there are entries on her side where vermin might come to my side. The job could not be completed. He was very professional and promptly refunded my money.

Brian Sweig of Thoroughspect/THE SEALER/BUSTED! takes the quote ?runs a tight ship? to new heights. The fact that he is extremely knowledgeable in this arena of rodent control is an understatement. We knew we were in competent hands from the moment Brian returned our phone call inquiry. At our initial ?thorough? walk through, Brian, a kind, caring, individual with a sense of humor, not only expertly, using all the available new technologies, assessed rodent access to our home in a clear, concise manner, but in addition, and so very valuable to us, pointed out numerous spots throughout our indoor and outdoor space that were in need of attention (potentially dangerous situations such as not having a clip closure on our power box and antiquated ceiling fire alarms, or bringing to our attention that a recent renovation of a bay window had not been fully completed ? no insulation ? and that this was contributing unnecessarily to a higher heating bill) having nothing to do to rodent access. We have found Brian to be the ultimate problem solver. The project was completed in a timely manner. In addition, Brian?s communication was the best that we?ve ever encountered with a contractor. He kept us informed via phone, texts, photos with overlying text, arrows, etc. every step of the way, for his plan of action, as well as exactly what was completed each day in his work at our home. Each home situation, although certainly with similarities, has unique challenges. The bottom line is that when you are in need of help for rodent control, it is important to have faith in the company selected and to believe that the job will be done to your satisfaction. We are over-the-top satisfied with the service Brian Sweig has provided to us and now look forward to a safer, cleaner, calmer, and more cost effective home life.

Brian is a true professional and an expert in inspecting and sealing homes against pests. He thoroughly inspected our home inside and out, beginning with the attic. He knew what to look for and how to find areas in the house that were inviting to unwanted guests. We could not have done this by ourselves. He did a great job with addressing fears and providing reassurances that he would get the job done quickly and completely. Brian followed through on every promise. He showed up when expected, he provided the reports he promised, including high resolution images of the problem areas that we could not see. True to the name ThoroughSpect, the inspection and the sealing process were thorough. Only the highest grade materials were used and the work is warrantied.Brian also provided us with additional tips and tricks for our home improvement plans. It is rare to find someone so professional, hardworking, knowledgeable and personable. Thanks Brian. Thanks Angie's List.

Brian Sweig, the owner of Thoroughspect, was on site for supervision of all of the work. He was always punctual, intelligent and polite, very attentive to detail, and exceptionally careful of our property and household possessions. We found him to be very knowledgeable about his field of expertise and he fully explained all of the work that was going to be done in advance, and provided updates of his progress and findings on a daily basis, including photographs. Brian is a consumate professional and a really nice guy too. We found him to be completely trustworthy. Brian's approach, unlike many in this field, focused on fixing the problem for the long term, not just dealing with the results of the problem with a short term fix. To date, the crawl spaces, basement and attic have been completely rodent free. Brian frequently stops by to check out the house and his work to assure its continued efficacy. While the work was not inexpensive, like most things in life, you often get what you pay for. I believe the results and the experience suggest it was a good deal. In addition to the work performed contractually, Brian's high level knowledge of house construction and systems and his great focus on detail allowed him to point out other aspects of the house that were in need of attention, including roofing, chimney and brick work, heating and air conditioning sytems, and plumbing issues, work that Thoroughspect does not do. I believe Brian sets very high standards for himself, his team and the work provided. I wish more contractors would emulate him, and not work at the minimum standard, which seems to be quite common these days. It was a good feeling to know high levels of professionalism still can be found.

It could not have gone better. We went from having a basement that filled up with about a foot of water every time it rained, with mold on the walls, to having a basement that stayed absolutely dry, even through Sandy and Hurricane Irene. Also, they stand behind their work completely. For example, In the very unlikely event that you have a mouse after they've sealed your house, they will come back free of charge, find the hole and take care of it. They came back a year after painting the exterior of my house, just to make sure the paint was holding up properly.

Brian is a rodent genius and knows more about the habits of household pests than anyone I've ever met. He undertook a complete inspection of the house, diagnosed sources of infilitration and quickly and professionally made repairs to keep animals out. He then set traps and checked them at least weekly to kill any remaining animals safely and cleanly. We haven't seen any sign of mice since he did his work. He is a veritable Pied Piper.

We are in the process of finishing our attic on our five year old home and were in the phase of insulating the attic. The insulation company came in and said they thought we had some bats, but were not sure whether it was a small number or large number of bats. Although we had some bat guano over the years, it was not anything sizable. So before we started walling in the attic, we decided to eradicate any varmints that were roaming in our attic. This process started out slowly with a few of the competitors coming in and saying they could get the bats out with a couple of different approaches. All of them had the general dialogue of what you would read in a franchise brochure, but none of them really impressed me. So we waited a few weeks and were at a loss on how to address this problem. Then we logged into Angie?s List to find another group of exterminators. In this batch we had a few more companies, including Thoroughspect, LLC. When Thoroughspect showed up, we got a very comprehensive inspection and assessment. Where all the rest of them just said we could get the bats out, Brian Sweig looked at the feces and concluded we had a problem with four varmints (Grey Squirrels, Flying Squirrels, Bats, and field mice). He was the first company to assess we had a broader problem and was the first company to focus on removal and sealing the house. I don?t know if the other companies did not notice the different types of animals, or more likely, they did not care. We then had some very detailed discussions with Brian after his thorough inspection, reviewed pictures of the gaping holes in our attic, and put an action plan in place to remediate. For each of the animals we created a different approach to eradicate and then seal. Three weeks later, we could not be happier. The attic and basement have been sealed and the varmints have been humanely removed. We have sealed the dormers and the many holes into our attic. It was a long-term investment in our biggest asset. Although we initially debated with an approach to just remove the current animals, we are ecstatic that we have sealed the house and will not have this problem again. I cannot say enough about THOROUGHSPECT,LLC. I have never written a review for Angie?s List much less any website, but Brian and ThoroughSpect properly determined the scope of our problem, put a multi-pronged strategy in place to eradicate and seal, and completed this ON TIME and ON BUDGET! Additionally, the inspection that Brian delivered not only addressed our known issues, but he also noted a few other issues we have with our chimney, windows leaks, boiler, etc. Through his inspection, Brian also noted our radon fan from the basement had stopped working and the radon system was not working properly. We got the servicemen out quickly to fix that one! Just another example of how Brian went above and beyond expectations. Brian also works with the Dog Rescue and had significant knowledge he shared with us on taking care of our four-legged friend. He truly cares about his customers! I would tell any of my friends to have Brian come out and give you a quote. You will immediately see the difference! I would definitely use him again for these type or other services! He was thorough, knowledgeable, careful, responsive, and delivered the job on time and on budget! I would tell any of my friends to have Brian come out and give you a quote.

We hired Thoroughspect to humanely remove an animal that we heard trapped in an interior wall. When Brian first arrived, he made a THOROUGH inspection of our home, eventually identifying not only entry points and evidence of rodents, but also other potential home safety hazards, from electrical issues (open electrical boxes), HVAC issues (crushed or detached flexible ducts), drafts and improper sealing, water infiltration, oil burner/chimney issues, and others--and all of this in house that was recently inspected and renovated! Brian humanely removed the trapped animal and set about excluding the rest, which he seems to have done successfully. He is thoughtful, knowledgeable, honest, and thorough, and he knows his business. He uses custom made, top quality materials so that his work holds up over time. We are very pleased with the work he has done and the care he has taken to assure the health and safety of our family. He went above and beyond the scope of our contract in identifying potentially dangerous conditions in our home and in taking steps to make sure they were addressed. We would and will hire him again and would not think of buying another home without his inspection. Thoroughspect was clean, careful, prompt, responsive, thorough, and effective. We could not ask for better service.

We had experienced field mice and other vermin in our home for years, with traps serving as our "best defense", but the problem seemed to grow worse. We were referred to Brian by someone who had heard of him by word of mouth. This bit of serendipity has improved our enjoyment of our home immeasurably. Brian came in and methodically diagnosed the multiple vulnerabilities of our house, identifying potential routes of entry and characteristics of our home's construction. He presented us with a written proposal. Upon our acceptance, he returned to complete the job in a reasonable period of time and timely met his promised commitments throughout the project. We have not seen evidence of any mice since the sealing. We have also benefited from his recommendations to address other insect pests. As impressive as the results are, what is notable about Brian is his zeal for what he does and his ability to communicate effectively in person and via E-mail. He inspires confidence in his work and follows up repeatedly to ensure the results are satisfactory, demonstrating true professionalism. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

We purchased an old house last year that was in some disrepair. We had a baby on the way and we realized that we had a fairly serious pest infestation (mice, bats) and a damp basement with bad quality air. After a negative experience with an exterminator who used toxic chemicals without resolution we decided to find someone who understood how to solve the problem in other ways. Brian came over and did a full inspection and provided us with a detailed list of issues and what he felt were the top priority items. We liked his "no obligation, no pressure" presentation and his obvious knowledge of old houses and all the various dimensions of our problem both on the pest side and the moisture side of the problem. Once the work started we received daily updates, often with cell phone pictures that Brian sent to us of the ongoing work. The onsite workers were meticulously clean and courteous and we were thrilled with the results. I now can use a basement room as my home office and we are totally pest-free. I feel that Brian has made the home safe for our baby and I would highly recommend Thoroughspect. We intend to use them again for another round of improvements this spring.

This review is long over due as I just found Angie's List. We hired Thoroughspect in 2002 to get rid of a nonstop mouse issue after a few companies tried to no avail. Brian Sweig of Thoroughspect came in and did a top to bottom inspection of the home with a substantial report to follow. We went with him during his inspection (not on the roof) and saw for ourselves what he was finding and with his explanation understood why the other companies failed. This home has not had a problem since and that is now more than a decade. We are in the process of selling the home and when it has been inspected we are asked how there is no evidence of rodents and we tell them about Thoroughspect. In closing I have to say that living with rodents is disgusting and we enjoy the fact that this home has no issues thanks to Brian and Thoroughspect.

Brian Sweig knows more about homes, systems and safety than any contractor I've ever worked with. He found problems in our home which our inspector totally missed, including a live propane line a propane leak, , asbestos and evidence of a fire in the basement and chimney. He stood to make no more money by pointing out these problems, he was just concerned for our safety. He gave us incredible advice on maintaining systems and avoiding problems, and when you own an antique home, problems and money have a way of multiplying quickly. The money we spent with Brian and Thoroughspect was the best investment we could have made for our home and our peace of mind. The animal removal and extermination problems we brought him in to take care of were handled sensitively, cleanly (he works without poisons) and completely (he guarantees his work for 2 years). I am so grateful to Brian for his above and beyond, amazing service!

Brian Sweig is professional, reliable, environmentally careful (he uses no poisons), and extraordinary knowledgeable. He applies his knowledge to all aspects of rodent proofing and water proofing a home using thermal imaging to detect access points, then a variety of methods to seal them. Detail-oriented, and dedicated to his task, he goes beyond expectations, living up to all claims on his website, thesealer.com.

I HAVE A YEARLY CONTRACT WITH THEM AND HAVE USED THEM FOR YEARS. THEY ARE PROFESSIONAL AND ALWAYS LET ME KNOW WHEN THEY ARE COMING. THEY ARE HARD TO REACH BY PHONE IF I NEED TO CALL THEM THOUGH.
