"Highly professional and pleasant to work with. Excellent quality components and installed quickly as possible. Installed new waterline from meter to house 300ft. and new cut off valve, pressure valve, check valve, and bleed off valve. Good folks !"
"I am extremely happy with the gutters and downspouts that Rife Remodeling and Flooring installed. They exceeded all my expectations regarding: 1. Cost 2. Time 3. Look/function 4. Honesty/integrity They completed the job same day, were professional, courteous, and trustworthy. The crew for Rife Remodeling and Flooring were left unattended with full access to the property and it's contents. When we got home that evening, the job was done, and they had completely cleaned up after themselves and left no debris in the yard or driveway. I will be a returning customer and would recommend them to anyone for any of your home repair needs."
"Ferguson Home Improvements did a fantastic job. All the work that needed to get done, was finished beyond my expectations. The workers were very friendly. The job took a little longer that expected, but Ferguson Home Improvements were not at fault, the weather played a major factor with the deck stain and door installation. At the time the work was getting done, we received a lot of rain and storms. All in all, I would highly recommend Ferguson Home Improvements. "
"I called primarily because we had'nt used the insert in a few years and had gotten a wasp's nest in the chimney which was removed when we had the roof redone. I wanted to find out if a screen could be put on top to stop wasps from getting in. After being told they had had a 1 and 1/2 hour drive to get to me they could'nt do anything but put on a new cap for 400 to 500 dollars which would make it worth their while for the trip. They did'nt do a cleaning and were here for about 20 minutes. It was a special they were running for a cleaning and inspection. "

"The CHW Tech was unable to connect the air condition to the Nest thermostat because it was not registering but he was able to provide us with cool air until the previous HVAC company was able to come and fix the system the next day. I had to pay the CHW Tech for the entire service but was reimbursed by the original company that installed the furnace because they knew that this was their error."
"They were fast, efficient, and CLEAN. Very professional. Work was really well done- biggest problem is that the part of the ceiling they installed is so much nicer than the part that wasn't affected by the flood. Brian and team from Walls had done a previous job- installing a ventilating fan in the ceiling of our guest bathroom where our old fan was doing a terrible job; paint was peeling because of moisture. Brian got me a much better fan and installed it- difference was amazing. The guys saw that our banister going down to the basement had come loose- and without my asking and at no charge, they repaired it. I now use them for a variety of handy man tasks. They are not cheap: as I recall, around $125 to come out - but they are fast and very good and manage to keep the price reasonable. "
One of the best things about Steve is he showed up when he was suppose to!
It was nice to watch things go so smoothly ....There was nothing he couldn't do. I thought I was going to have to hire a plumber to install the shower toilet sink water heater etc but I didn't."
In VA, immediate action is needed for termite swarms, active wasp nests near entryways, or rodent sightings indoors, as these can escalate quickly. Issues like minor ant trails or occasional spiders can be monitored. Spring is ideal for termite inspections, while fall is best for sealing entry points. Consider your home’s history and location to prioritize pest control tasks effectively.

Richlands homeowners increasingly favor pest control solutions like moisture barriers in crawl spaces, native landscaping to deter pests, and fine-mesh screens for vents and windows. Integrated pest management is popular, combining targeted bait stations for termites, rodent-proofing entry points, and pet-safe deterrents. Eco-friendly options, such as essential oil sprays and diatomaceous earth, are also trending for safer, long-term pest prevention.
Helpful?
For pest control in Richlands, keep a sturdy flashlight for attic and crawl space inspections, a caulk gun with weatherproof sealant for sealing gaps, and heavy-duty gloves for handling traps or chemicals. Stock diatomaceous earth, boric acid, and sticky traps for insect control, along with steel wool for rodent exclusion. A dehumidifier and weather stripping help manage moisture, a key factor in preventing pest infestations in Richlands’ climate.
Helpful?
In Richlands, be cautious of pest control quotes that lack detailed service descriptions or skip on-site inspections. Avoid providers who guarantee total pest elimination or pressure for immediate decisions. Reliable professionals explain their methods, outline plans for termite prevention and rodent exclusion, and provide local references. Comparing at least three quotes ensures you find a provider familiar with Richlands’ unique pest challenges.
Helpful?
In Richlands, signs like mud tubes on basement walls, piles of sawdust-like frass from carpenter ants, or gnawed insulation point to potential structural damage. Hollow-sounding wood, recurring rodent droppings, or persistent musty odors in crawl spaces also signal underlying moisture or pest issues. Addressing these early helps prevent extensive repairs and supports effective termite prevention and rodent exclusion.
