Important questions you should ask when considering a Moisture Control Company
- Does the moisture control company you are considering offer a warranty? Horne’s Pest Control offers two warranty programs. We offer a ten-year fixed warranty on moisture control improvements. This warranty will include vapor barriers, drains, basement waterproofing membrane, and yard control drains. We also offer an annually renewable warranty which is good for the life of the home.
- Is the moisture control company you are considering well established? Will they be able to stand behind their warranty? It is a sad fact that many businesses fail. The best guarantee in the world is useless if the issuing company is no longer in business. Horne’s Pest Control was established in 1966. With well over 40 years of experience and a large loyal customer base you can rest assured that if your drainage control program fails we will be there to stand behind it.
- Does the moisture control company you are considering use uniformed, drug-tested, security-screened employees who are experienced in moisture control? Horne’s Pest Control is proud to use tenured and experienced personnel that understand the components of drainage control and the detrimental effects of an improperly installed system. We do not use day labor or temporary staffing companies. We do not believe you want unsupervised, inexperienced laborers in and around your home.
- Does the company you are considering participate in the “Georgia New Hire Program” which reduces fraudulent activity by reporting Social Security Numbers (legal Green Card holders have a valid Social Security number) to the Georgia Department of Labor (which in turn reports to the National Agency)? Horne’s Pest Control does.
- Is your moisture control provider trained in ventilation specifications and the control of wood decaying fungus? Horne’s Pest Control is licensed by the Georgia Department of Agriculture and The South Carolina Department of Pesticide Regulation for the control of Wood Destroying Organisms. Please understand that excess moisture conditions and poor ventilation leads to Wood Decaying Fungus. Wood Decaying Fungus is a wood destroying organism just like termites and powder post beetles. Proper code enforced specifications as mandated by regulatory agencies should be adhered to. Companies that are experienced and meet the licensing criteria as dictated by the Georgia Department of Agriculture and South Carolina Department of Pesticide Regulation should be used.
