No follow up service
I paid an extortionate amount to have a condensation machine installed to dry up my basement. 2 years later there is still condensation. I contacted them, but was told that I should have serviced the machine every 6 months. This was never told to me. If I had known this beforehand I could have made a better informed decision about having this machine installed. Now they want to make me pay around 20% of the purchase price for a filter change or service. I am very disappointed.

Jury out - but care needed over cost
There is a wrinkle - Environ charge you for three visits domestically to deal with (in my case) rats. When they call you are advised to tell them if a trap has caught a rat. They then visit and remove it - and tell you that your next visit has been advanced. Obviously there is then a deficit of visits - and each one in excess of three visits -( this you are not told) will cost you £135 extra per visit. Be careful - this is a rather more expensive service than it might appear. That said they seem efficient and well versed and the traps may have done their work.

Excellent carpentry work
Environ has been working at my property recently this year dealing with a large area of rising damp. An area of the hall required carpentry work as a result of this work. Dean, the carpenter, completed an exemplary job. He is a very professional worker who is concerned with producing the best work possible, and is a credit to Environ's workforce.

Awful standard of work, no follow up
Severely disappointed with the work carried out. We payed an extortionate amount of money for Environ to carry out a drain replacement. The job was not completed to a satisfactory standard and they refused to come back to correct the works without extra payment. Awful.

Reassuringly competent and good communication
Environ did tanking repair work in my cellar after flood damage and were good to deal with throughout. They seem to have plenty of knowledgeable helpful people: the person who did the initial quote, the person who checked I was ready for the work, the two guys who did the work - all good. We were particularly impressed by the two guys who did the work: they explained what they were doing, cleared up after themselves and were generally polite. The cost was quite high but the insurers were paying so I didn't mind - but I would use Environ again if it was my money.

Pest control
Asked Environ to capture a rat in my very cluttered large basement. Was told that they would try to capture and produce a report and recommendations. The person arrived promptly but was not able to capture but in any case did not try very hard. Said that he would contact the office to follow up with a trap. Never heard from them again. The person making the booking was more interested in taking pre-payment rather than taking details of the job. Avoid like the plague. A rip off.

Excellent service from start to finish. Ordered the service for my mum, who had a mice issue due to neighbours not taking any action for her block of flats. Received a very professional service from the 1st telephone call making enquires. The workman who did the survey and then the workman who completed the works clearly explained what they were doing, which put my mum at ease. From the moment the works were completed there has been no sign of mice in her flat. This was nearly 3 months ago, worth every penny.

Rat Infestation
Up until recently we’ve been using an old outbuilding as a very busy utility and store room. A few months ago we started to see evidence of mice which was fine and we knew they’d come in for some warmth. However, this recently changed to rats and a lot of them, far more than our dog and cat could handle. Ricky and his team were quick to assist and support us as our situation spiraled and they started to destroy the roof space and cause slates to fall. I was scared we’d left it too late. They were absolutely brilliant, very knowledgeable, respectful and professional. We knew we needed to get the best people in to deal with this and are so grateful that Environ are still surveying and have taken the time to be trading with all the new covid regulations. We felt really safe and confident at having their team here, they wore masks and left the place tidy. I should get shares in sun-pat peanut butter - rats love it! Who knew?! Trusted and whole heartedly recommended, this team really knows what they are doing on every level.

Poor workmanship, extortionately priced
Environ were assigned by a property agent I was using (Complete RPI) to carry out some remedial work on a roof leak and a few other issues within the property that I rent out. To fix the leak in the roof they quoted, what I thought, was an awful lot of money. After agreeing with the property agent that this work would be fully guaranteed etc I agreed for them to instruct Environ to do the work. This, as it turns out, was a terrible mistake. In short Environ couldn't have done a worse job - the leak is still there, probably worse than before, and they are completely refusing to take responsibility for their bodged attempt at a remedy despite charging me £9,600. To add insult to injury, the "job" they did was left half done. After removing a security light in order to re-render an external wall they didn't put it back - nor did they leave it onsite for me to do it. Quite why they would steal a security light I have no idea. After asking them about it a couple of times they refused to give me an answer. On top of this, they charged significant amounts for the "other" jobs within the house which were, I've now come to realise, completely unnecessary. As this was a rental property I wasn't in the house and able to see what was going on, I've now gained access and seen just how ripped off I have been. They've been well aware that this is a rental property and therefore feel they're able to charge large amounts of money for jobs that don't need done.

Mouse proofing - Environ Property Services
Having seen a mouse in my flat before Christmas I wanted to make sure it was proofed to try and avoid further mouse activity. Environ came recommended by my neighbour and I phoned them immediately. Customer service was quick and excellent with good and prompt communication at all times. A first visit was carried out on 21/12/20 by Daniel who was thorough and inspected the whole property (wearing a mask and shoe covers) and placed bait in appropriate places. The first visit cost £199. After having received a quote and report, I decided to have the whole flat proofed at a further cost of £540 (VAT included). Nigel, and later on Jack, came on 05/01/21 and spent just under 4 hours in my property. Both were efficient and went out of their way to be helpful. They noticed a boiler type leak under one of the kitchen cabinets, took photos and discussed that with me. They came well equipped with fire proof and nor proof materials which should keep the mice away. I now have a 3 month guarantee and they will come back free of charge should I notice any further mouse activity. Both were careful in the flat, wearing masks and taking their shoes off or wearing shoe covers I had provided. They swept the floor and cleared up after their work. Not a cheap service but professional, friendly and efficient.

Great Service and amazing Customer Service
The service received was very good and turned out to be largely successful thus far, however the lady in the customer service team was exceptional. She is the only reason i paid for their service over another company, as she genuinely cared about the issue i was facing and wanted to ensure the correct service was sold and not forced be to buy the most expensive options. Very logical, super helpful and must be a critical employee to that firm. I have since recommended many people to use Environ, but to ensure they speak to Emily Clark only, as she is what makes the service brilliant.

Helped sort out tricky rat problem!
After recent works by Thames Water on our street rats seemed to invade our house. We tried another company first that only left us with a few dead (decomposing!) rats and plenty of lives ones. That was a big mistake. We called in Environ with a skilful initial assessment and follow-up with drains experts to fix the underlying cause of the issue. Ben and Lee found the entryway via our drains system and installed the bocks/one-way systems to ensure no more rats entered our house. Thankfully the traps left weren't going to leave any more dead rats to stink up our house either. We'll definitely be using Environ from now on! As with everything you pay for, you could go cheaper but it's probably not too wise.

Amazing and safe work during pandemic
After being quoted for some damp proofing work and booking in a start date for April 30, the current Covid-19 pandemic caused great concern. Having spoken with the team from Environ numerous times they assured me the works could continue and meet government guidelines. I was dubious but we agreed with PPE and some very mindful workers for the work to go ahead. What seemed like a challenge and created anxiety for myself I could not be happier. The works were complete as agreed to the quote, within the timeline given, to the price suggested. Not only that but all managed to happen while maintaining social distancing, wearing PPE and being incredibly polite and courteous workers. They even helped to wipe down and disinfect the area each afternoon when they had finished for the day. I could not recommend them enough! Thank you Environ!

First class service. We used Environ's CCTV drainage inspection Service
From start to finish both myself and my partner were extremely impressed with Environ. We initially had an issue with rats entering our home, Environ's Pest Control team were also fantastic by the way and caught a number of rats in the loft. After first working out that the the rats were coming up from the sewer a CCTV drainage inspection was booked. We had paid for a 1 hour inspection which I assumed would be a strict one hour, the guys went over and above and were actually with us for an hour and 20 minutes and no extra charge. They found how the rats were getting in and we have arranged for the Environ drainage team to come back and fix the problem. The the pest control man and the drainage team Environ sent were on time, very polite and informative. Nothing was too much trouble, my partner who I know is a bit of a pain as he asks so many questions wanted to know details of the whole process, he is always like this with every tradesman we ever use :-) From the point of making the first phone call to Environ I knew that I would be in safe hands.

A mice infestation sent me to the internet. I chose Environ Property Services because of its excellent website, not brash but very clear, with its charges there for all to see (but not including VAT!). We had two visits and full reports on both of them. The agents were extremely courteous and considerate, willing to answer our many questions. It's too early to say whether the infestation has been halted completely, but the signs are good.

Avoid this company
Unfortunately I had a very bad experience with Environ Pest Control. They charged an extortionate amount of money to close very few small gaps. After the survey they quoted half day of work. I was surprised given the surveyor mentioned that it was supposed to be an easy and quick job. I asked for clarification and they told me that the quote was an accurate reflection of the work needed and they never mentioned they have a minimum charge of half day. The proofing was done in 1.5 hour for more than £400 + VAT. When I complained they finally told me about the minimum half day charge but they were not prepared to give any refund. If I had known about the minimum charge I would have probably decided to do the work myself. They then offered a pitiful 5% refund and then £100 refund following the reviews. Very poor customer service, they seem to just be after your money. After further discussing a full refund was provided so I considered the matter resolved satisfactorily

I have recently used Environ Pest control after discover a mouse problem including hearing and seeing mice in our bedrooms!! I was extremely distressed and didn't want to be in my house. When I phoned Environ the lady who answered the phone , Harriet, was so kind and understanding and booked someone for the next day. Daniel came and looked all around the house and explained all about how the mice came in and what we could do. He was really knowledgeable and calm and I felt in safe hands to get the problem sorted. Harry came a few weeks later to check the baits and again was very kind and patient, taking time to answer my questions.

Terrible company. Charges £190 pound for laying poison. Sends a report that states they can't fill all the holes due to structural reasons. Tries to charge £2000 "mouse proofing" the house, that doesn't guarantee all holes to be filled. Saw a mouse in the house after their second appointment, where the mouse should be eradicated according to their claim. They weren't even aware that they attended the second appointment and suggested to wait 2 weeks.

After an infestation of mice in the kitchen, Daniel came round to give us an estimate, and came back the following week to carry out the work. He was very nice and worked hard, and while there was an issue with the work and a water pipe, he organised for a plumber from the same company to come and deal with that immediately all inclusive.

A ‘rat flap ‘ was recommended at a cost £480 +VAT. In addition to the hourly rate of 95 plus VAT All the work was completed within an hour. I was v surprised by the price of the device. As far as I know the works will be effective.

A big family thank you
We called Environ Property Services to solve a long ongoing damp issue at my grandmothers. We tried to ignore it by painting over the patches and using a dehumidifier to no avail. Enough was enough! Terry was sent to survey the issue and sent a report. Admittedly, I didn’t understand some parts of it but after a phone call to the office, much of this was explained. As an elderly person we wanted to ensure we chose a competent company as there were a number of visits needed to complete the works. We done all the usual checks and decided to use them. I have to say we are really happy with everything they have done. Clean, tidy and proud of their work. Really nice getting to know some of their staff. Not the cheapest but definitely worth the money. I’ve since passed their number to friends who needed similar services. Thank you once again.

The problem had been badly dealt with by a previous contractor they came in and solved a very challenging infestation as the source was my neighbour. They were polite thorough and careful, tried to avoid me spending money when I didn’t need to and always took care of the property i.e wearing overshoes and protecting walls form ladder marks with towels.
