How pricing works
We don't post a price for a bed bug job, because the price follows the rooms and the method. Here is what decides it, and when you get the number.
What decides the price
A bed bug job is priced by rooms and by method, and a few other things move it.
How many rooms or units the report covers
Whether neighboring rooms need an inspection
Heat or targeted treatment, or both
Furniture, clutter and access that slow the work
The number of follow-up inspections
What the estimate includes, and what it doesn't
The written estimate lists the rooms, the method, the follow-up visits and the terms for re-treatment.
Includes: inspection, treatment, follow-up inspections, the report
Doesn't include: replacing mattresses, furniture or linens
Doesn't include: laundering, or moving a guest
Doesn't include: rooms the report adds later
What happens at the visit
A technician inspects the rooms in the estimate and tells you what they found before leaving. If you go ahead, the inspection fee is credited toward the treatment of the same rooms.
Calls after hours
Our hours are 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. A text sent after 10 p.m. is answered at 6 a.m. We don't schedule rooms overnight, so there is no night rate.
When you get the number
In writing, after the inspection, and before any treatment. The estimate is a fixed scope. If the work grows, we stop and ask you first.
If the job changes
We write the change down and you agree to it before we do more. A room added to the report is its own line, not a surprise on the invoice.
No figure is quoted by text, form or phone. The estimate is written, after the inspection.
The estimate
A written estimate has five lines
- 01
The rooms
Each room or unit by number, and why it is in the estimate.
- 02
The method
Heat, targeted treatment or both, and the product label we follow.
- 03
The visits
The treatment visit and each follow-up inspection, with intervals.
- 04
The terms
When we re-treat at no charge, and what ends that promise.
- 05
The total
One figure for the scope above, with what it leaves out written beside it.
