Pest Control in Telford, England — Fast Solutions for Woodworm and Infestations

Back on the property, you'd do it yourself, but two storeys up is a different matter. Found woodworm in the joists, and they didn't try to blind me with jargon. They treated it properly, and at the follow-up, no live woodworm activity detected. It'll hold — that's what counts.

Our residents are vulnerable — any falls risk from equipment is completely unacceptable. I chose them because they installed proper barriers before anything was moved into position, ensuring our memory care residents, who get distressed by loud noises, stayed calm throughout. Zero resident incidents or complaints over the three days validated my decision.

I'd been putting off dealing with woodworm in my flat for way too long, and I'll be honest, I was pretty anxious about it. What struck me was how they explained everything at a level I could actually follow — that's not as easy as it sounds. At the 12-month follow-up inspection, no live woodworm activity was detected, which was a real relief. They also threw in some useful tips on managing wasps, which I wasn't expecting but was glad of.

The committee's decision to prioritise quality over price has been vindicated. Two committee members wanted the cheapest quote — I pushed back, and the premium was 12%. Eight months later, no live woodworm activity detected at the follow-up inspection. I'll be referencing this job at every future tender discussion.

Managing a period flat, I'd had a go at DIY woodworm removal myself first — didn't sort it. Tavora Pest Control came in, did a proper thermal imaging inspection, and told me — I'm reading straight from my notes here — "this repair has a 12-year minimum." They answered my questions specifically and got the woodworm problem properly sorted.

The detailed documentation really put my mind at rest during the pest control service. They provided a written scope that was clear enough to serve as a variation agreement. Their current public liability certificate meant all terms were properly understood, which is vital in my role as a landlord. That thorough paperwork gave me real confidence in their professionalism.

My learning journey began when I discovered woodworm in my period flat in Telford. I expected to be confused, but Tavora patiently walked me through the woodworm treatment process. Not once did I feel silly for asking questions, and I actually understand what was wrong now. Their kindness made all the difference.

The job got done, simple as that. After the storm, I found woodworm damage in the flat. They turned up on time, no dramas, and carried out a thorough woodworm treatment. They didn't try to push extras I hadn't asked for. If I need them again, I'll call.

With the committee pushing for answers, I called them after spotting woodworm in a neighbouring flat. They treated it swiftly, and I can finally close that ticket — zero owner complaints after the job. No live woodworm activity detected at the 12-month follow-up inspection.

I booked online at 11pm and got confirmation within minutes. The quote came through within 4 hours, which I thought was pretty impressive. They treated my maisonette for woodworm, and at the 12-month follow-up, there was no live activity detected. Efficient process and solid communication all the way through.

I watched them the whole time — harnesses on without fail. The RAMS was current and specific to the job, so there were no cowboy shortcuts on my property. They secured the work zone before touching anything, applying woodworm treatment per BS 8417 to the affected timber in my Telford flat.

I wasn't even there — managed it all remotely — and they still got the woodworm treatment done in my flat. Job was handled while I was on the road, which takes some organising. Every person on that crew was pulling their weight, and no live woodworm activity was detected at the follow-up inspection.
