The company publishes no service agreement, terms of service or FAQ with contract terms. The site footer’s “Terms of Service” link points to “#”, and /terms-of-service returns the site’s 404 page. The About page refers customers to “your specific agreement for details”, so written agreements exist but their terms (minimum term, renewal, cancellation, fees, arbitration) are not public.12
Satisfaction guarantee (current site): free return visits until satisfied, for “many of our services”; details per agreement.4
Former guarantee page (archived February 26, 2024): free re-service until satisfied and, if the problem persists, a refund of the last service payment; free extra visits for “seasonal pest service” subscribers.13
Promotion (2019): half off the initial visit for new customers “when signing up for a maintenance plan”.10
Residential service is sold as quarterly treatments (company homepage); a Logan customer on Reddit describes quarterly visits with free call-backs between services (search snippet).8
