Nibbles Woodaway aka "The Big Blue Bug" is a 58 foot long, 9 foot tall, 40,000 lb termite on top of our building.The Big Blue Bug has been featured in movies including Dumb & Dumber, appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show - along with other TV appearances, and even represents Rhode Island at the Denver Airport.Our services include bed bug control, termite control, tick and mosquito control, rodent control, stinging insect control, and much more!

"We met Chris C for the first time today and were very impressed by his thoroughness for the dozens of rodent traps around our property. He was friendly and professional l. A good reflection on your company. Ally had done a great job during the previous visit, and probably saved us ALOT of money! Her visit was cut short when our water heater blew and started flooding our basement with hot water while she was down there. She kept a cool head, and suggested we shut the water off to the tank. As silly as it sounds, I would not have thought of it since I panicked. It was a serious blessing that she was here when it happened and helped us mitigate a small nuisance instead of a major insurance claim. Your service is worth every penny!"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Home inspections can reveal many different issues that could end up costing buyers thousands of dollars or more post-closing to rectify, so what a buyer is willing to pay for a home largely depends on the findings of the home inspection. Major issues like foundation damage or structural problems could significantly bring down the selling price. A “clean” home inspection that reveals no issues may make the home more enticing to buyers, potentially raising the selling price.

How long the home inspection takes can vary greatly depending on the size of the home and the type of inspections being done—the same goes for receiving the final home inspection report. Some inspectors are busier than others, so it may take a little longer. Generally speaking, however, you can expect to receive the report within 1-2 business days after the inspection.

The natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water can cause radon to appear in a home. The gas seeps into homes through cracks in foundations, walls, or floors, as well as through gaps around pipes or construction joints. Radon levels are influenced by soil composition, building materials, and ventilation. Poorly sealed or airtight homes can trap radon, allowing it to accumulate.

In many cases, you can sell your house if it has aluminum wiring, but you are likely required to disclose that fact during the sale. In some cases, your city or area may have banned the sale of homes with aluminum wiring, so you’ll need to update the wiring or arrange for its replacement as part of the sale. In some cases, it will benefit your home sale to replace the wiring system before putting it on the market.

In most cases, no. The purpose of an inspection is to highlight any glaring issues with the property that the buyer might use to negotiate or want to rectify after closing, but there’s no law stating the inspection must pass. A buyer can accept any problems identified during a failed home inspection. The only exception would be lender-required repairs, which could hold up the mortgage.
