Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ – Testudo Pest Control & Remodeling
Straight answers to the questions we hear most from homeowners in the Oklahoma City Metro. If you don't see your question below, just call or text and we'll help you out.
Pest Control Questions
What areas do you service for pest control?
We primarily serve the Oklahoma City Metro, including Oklahoma City, Edmond, Moore, Yukon, Mustang, Norman, Midwest City, and nearby surrounding areas. If you're a little outside that circle, reach out and we'll see what we can do.
What pests are included in your general pest control service?
General pest control typically covers common household pests such as ants, spiders, roaches, earwigs, silverfish, and many "occasional invaders." We also offer targeted services for rodents, fleas/ticks (yard), and other specific issues based on what you're dealing with.
Do you offer one-time pest treatments or only plans?
We do both. If you just need a one-time cleanout or emergency treatment, we can help. Most homeowners choose a quarterly plan for long-term protection, with touch-ups available between regular visits if something pops back up.
Is your pest control safe for kids and pets?
We use professional products and targeted application methods. We'll let you know if any temporary precautions are needed (like letting a treatment dry or keeping pets out of a certain area for a short time). If you have specific concerns, tell us up front and we'll walk you through the plan.
How much does pest control usually cost?
Pricing depends on the size of your home, the severity of the problem, and whether you want a one-time service or ongoing plan. Most services fall into a predictable range once we know those details. Send a quote request or give us a quick call and we'll give you straight pricing with no surprise add-ons.
What's different about Testudo compared to big national pest companies?
We're local, and you're not just a contract number. You'll know who is coming to your home, you'll know what they're doing, and you'll get honest recommendations instead of over-complicated packages.
Remodeling & Painting Questions
What types of remodeling projects do you take on?
We handle a wide range of work: interior and exterior painting, flooring, trim and finish carpentry, decks and pergolas, bathroom and kitchen updates, and full interior remodels. If you're not sure if your project fits, ask us—we'll be honest about whether it's a good match.
Do you offer financing for remodeling projects?
We're able to discuss financing options on many projects. When you request a remodeling quote, let us know if financing is important and we'll walk through what may be available for your situation.
How do you handle dust, mess, and cleanup during a remodel?
Remodeling is never 100% mess-free, but we work hard to control it. We cover floors and surfaces, contain dust where possible, and clean up at the end of the day. The goal is to treat your home like it's ours – not a jobsite we trash and disappear from.
How do I get an accurate quote for my project?
Start with the remodeling quote form on our site or give us a call. For most projects, we'll schedule a walkthrough so we can see the space, talk through options, and put together a detailed quote that actually matches the work you want done.
Can you help with both pest issues and remodel work at the same time?
Yes. One advantage of Testudo is that we can coordinate both sides when it makes sense—for example, addressing rodent issues and then repairing or upgrading damaged areas. Tell us what's going on and we'll build a plan that makes sense instead of bouncing you between different companies.
Still have questions?
Reach out and talk to a real person. We're happy to answer questions before you ever schedule anything.
