Houston & Dallas metros · Chemical-free critter proofing

A gap the size of a dime is all a mouse needs.

We find every one — weep holes, roof lines, pipe gaps, door sweeps — and seal it shut with carpentry-grade materials that keep rodents and critters out for good. No poison. No chemicals. No monthly contract. And while we’re there, the home services you already know us for.

Critter proofing, done right: we seal — we don’t spray.

Rodents don’t need an open door — just a gap. A house mouse fits through a hole the size of a dime, and every Texas home has a dozen of them. We find each one and seal it shut with carpentry-grade materials, so critters can’t get back in — no poison, no chemicals, no monthly spray contract.

What we seal
  • Foundation gaps & weep holes

    Steel mesh and weep-hole covers close the dime-sized openings mice walk straight through.

  • Roof lines, soffits & eaves

    Where the roof meets the wall is a highway in. We flash and mesh those gaps shut.

  • Pipe & utility penetrations

    Every line into the house leaves a gap around it. We pack and seal them with steel wool and sealant.

  • Vents & attic screens

    Dryer, gable, and attic vents get galvanized hardware-cloth screens that breathe but block.

  • Garage door corners & gaps

    The number-one way in. Corner seals and gap kits close the openings at the slab and the sides.

  • Exterior door sweeps

    A worn sweep leaves a quarter-inch gap under the door. We fit new ones that seal to the threshold.

The home services we’re known for — knocked out on the same visit, one crew, one trip.

Most booked

Bidet installation

$149 flatany install

Your bidet fitted clean and leak-free — unit, fittings, and labor included, no trip fee. Flat rate for any install, however many bathrooms. Already own the bidet? We’ll install it for $89.

See the bidet page & book →

AC drain-line flush

$49

Texas heat and humidity clog condensate lines fast — a backed-up line means a soaked ceiling. We clear and flush it before it overflows the pan.

Highest-value in summer

Dryer vent cleaning

$99

Lint buildup is the leading cause of dryer fires and the reason clothes take two cycles. We clear the full run from drum to exterior vent.

Safety + efficiency

AC filter replacement

$89

Right-sized filter supplied and swapped, old one hauled off. A clean filter is the cheapest thing standing between you and a strained system.

Filter supplied

Garbage disposal reset & check

Freewith any visit

Jammed, humming, or leaking? We clear the jam, reset it, and check the seals — or tell you straight if it’s time for a replacement.

Clear · reset · reseal

Smoke & CO detector service

$49

Fresh batteries in every smoke and CO detector, each unit tested. Scoped as replace-and-test — not an inspection or certification.

Replace + test, in writing

Attic inspection

Freewith any visit

A visual once-over of your attic — insulation coverage, daylight gaps, and obvious signs of moisture or pests — so you catch small problems early. A homeowner’s check, not a licensed inspection.

The maintenance plan

Four visits a year. One every quarter.

The routine jobs every Texas house needs and every homeowner forgets — handled every three months, so nothing sits long enough to turn into a repair bill.

Q1 · Winter

Start-of-year check

Fresh filter, detectors tested, disposal checked, and an attic look for anything winter moved in.

Q2 · Spring

Pre-summer tune-up

Drain line flushed and dryer vent cleared before your AC and laundry work their hardest.

Q3 · Summer

Peak-heat visit

Drain line re-flushed mid-season, filter swapped, attic checked for heat and moisture damage.

Q4 · Fall

Post-summer check

Fresh filter, detectors re-tested, and a once-over to catch whatever the Texas summer left behind.

Every visit includes:
  • AC filter replaced & supplied
  • AC condensate drain line flushed
  • Dryer vent cleared end to end
  • Smoke & CO detector batteries replaced and tested
  • Garbage disposal reset & checked
  • Attic checked — insulation, moisture & pest signs
We schedule all four visits up front. So “I forgot” never turns into a flooded ceiling pan or a lint-packed dryer vent. You get a reminder, not a homework assignment.

Prepay all four visits and take 10% off. Same four dates, same services — one payment instead of four.

Prepaid years aren’t refundable, but they are transferable. Unused visits move with you — to a new address, to a new owner if you sell, or to any other service we offer at the same value.

Straight about what we do — and what we don’t.

Our critter proofing is completely chemical-free — we remove the critters and seal the structure behind them so they can’t get back in, with no poison, no sprays, and nothing toxic left in your home or dying in your walls. It’s hands-on carpentry and exclusion, not chemical extermination — and Texas doesn’t require a structural pest control license for chemical-free work like this.

Texas doesn’t issue a general handyman license either, and we don’t perform work reserved for licensed plumbing, electrical, HVAC, or irrigation contractors. Detector work is scoped as replace and test, put in writing — never sold as an inspection. Clear scope is how you avoid the surprises that make home services frustrating in the first place.

Good to know

Questions homeowners actually ask

Do you use poison or chemicals?

No — our critter proofing is completely chemical-free. We remove the critters and seal the gaps they use to get in, with carpentry-grade materials like steel mesh, hardware cloth, and door sweeps. Nothing toxic in your home, nothing dying in your walls, no monthly spray contract.

What if critters are already inside?

We remove them and seal the structure behind them — chemical-free — so nothing gets back in. That’s the permanent fix: get them out, then close every gap they used, for good.

How long does the seal hold?

Because it’s physical sealing and not a treatment that wears off, a proper exclusion lasts for years — and we back it with a seal guarantee. If something we sealed opens back up, we come fix it.

How soon can you come out?

Most one-off jobs are booked within two to three days. Plan visits run on a quarterly cycle — and we set the next date before we leave, so it never slips.

What’s the difference between booking à la carte and the plan?

À la carte, you call when something needs doing and pay the flat rate for that job. The plan bundles the whole list into one scheduled visit every quarter at $199 — versus $286 booking those same services separately — with the filter and batteries supplied, the attic inspection and disposal check included free, and all four dates set in advance. Pay per visit, or prepay the year for $716 and save 10%.

Do you work on rental properties?

Yes — the plan suits landlords well. Documented quarterly maintenance helps with tenant disputes and insurance claims, and we can send the visit summary to you and the tenant separately.

Do you charge a trip fee or extra for weekends?

No trip fee, and the flat rate is the same whichever day we come out. What we quote is what you pay.

What happens if I prepay the year and then cancel?

Prepaid years aren't refundable, but they're fully transferable — you never lose the value. Unused visits can move to a new address if you move, transfer to the new owner if you sell the home, or be applied at the same value toward any other service we offer, including critter proofing. If you'd rather keep the flexibility to stop, pay per visit at $199 instead and cancel any time before your next one.
