Solutions Pest Control is regularly praised for Richard's friendly, professional and knowledgeable service. Reviewers report prompt or same-day responses for wasp nests, rodents, birds, moles and chimney problems. Several say he explains what he is doing and the outcome clearly, with no mess left behind. Chimney sweeping is often described as clean and tidy, and one reviewer noted the business did not charge when no work was needed. One reviewer described the service as 'terrible' without giving any details.
Richard arrived promptly after I had to call upon his services for a second time, this time for a new type of pest. I had no hesitation that he was best suited to assist again and chose Solutions Pest Control as soon as it was clear there was another problem. He was just as professional and friendly as he had been previously and explained the options available to deal with the bushy-tailed family who had adopted our roof space! He confidently proposed a plan and once he had answered my questions & left me reassured, he went calmly about putting it into action. During the following days Richard made regular and frequent visits to checked on progress and then made changes where necessary. His communication and replies to messages were timely and helpful and he worked cleanly, quietly and safely. The outcome was much better than I had originally hoped for, and peaceful nights have thankfully resumed. It is an understatement to say that Richard is more than just fair and reliable; he is a superstar asset to have so close by and I would have no hesitation in reaching out a further time in the future, should needs be… although I hope not to have to for a third time! Thanks once again.
Richard did a great job of sweeping our log burner. He is knowledgeable, experienced, helpful and responsive. I would highly recommend Richard's services.
Madly quick response, faultless service & a lovely guy. Highly recommended.

Absolutely delighted with this service. Richard was very kind with my 94 year old mother's wasp nest, going above and beyond what was needed and making sure she was safe.
Richard was very efficient in responding to a concern raised by a surveyor for the sale of my property. Very quick turn around from enquiry to dealing with the problem. Thank you very much for your help and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone

We have received a first class job, and an extremely generous level of service from Solutions with regard to resolving a chimney based issue. I would have no hesitation in recommending Richard and his team to anyone who cares to ask.
Fantastic service. Phoned for help with a wasp nest in the shed, and Richard came out the same day to resolve. Wouldn’t hesitate to phone again for any issues and recommend to anyone. Thank you for your help.
I had a wasp nest in my roof and contacted this company. They responded immediately and within 24 hours they had come round and successfully treated it…i haven’t seen a single a wasp since. Richard was very professional and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend him.
Richard was called to deal with a wasp nest. He was quick at messaging me back and then also when he was going to arrive. Friendly and honest man who completed the job quickly and efficiently. Work is also guaranteed.
Rich sweeps our chimneys, sorted our bird cowls and gets rid of wasp nests. Quickly, no fuss and a fair price. Highly recommended 🙏🏼🚀🚀🚀
Excellent customer service from my initial email to leaving site. Great communications and knew exactly what was happening at all times. Turned up as planned, ened up sorting 3 wasp nests. Great value and would 100% use again
Called Richard regarding a wasps nest in our loft space. Richard was very polite, helpful and gave great advice. Quick to remove the nest and very professional first class service. I can’t recommend him enough and will use him again. Thanks again to you Richard.
Brilliant service from Richard at Solutions Pest Control. Noticed a wasps nest in the roof outside our kitchen window affecting the access to our garden, and with a phobic partner in the house needed to get rid asap. After getting some local quotes I contacted Richard. He was in the area and able to come and sort it for me within 30 minutes of contacting him. No faff, quickly treated, friendly guy, and best of all honest, reasonable pricing. Even promised to come back and treat again for free if first treatment wasn't effective. Thanks so much, will come to you again in future!
Richard got back to me almost immediately when I found a small wasp’s nest in my shed. He took care of the problem extremely quickly and was really helpful in explaining what to do on the rare occasion it came back. As someone who’s very new to managing a house and a garden, I felt well taken care of and would definitely recommend him to anyone with a similar problem.
Richard visited our new home last week, quickly identified a queen wasp nest and removed it. Put our minds at rest for an already treated nest whereby only the residue was remaining and gave some extremely useful guidance on the masonry bees. Extremely professional and sound advice. Would without hesitation recommend to anyone with pest control needs. Thanks again.
Richard came to us very promptly. He gave good advice about our concerns and was able to provide an effective solution. He was reassuring and professional. We have no hesitation at all about recommending him , excellent service.
Highly recommend Solutions Pest Control. Richard was very quick to come over, treat and resolve our wasps nest issue. He was very professional and understanding of our elderly neighbors, where he had to gain access to reach the nest to treat.
Richard did a very professional and efficient job of sweeping my chimney. I have used him for the last two occasions and will continue to use his services. He is always prompt, tidy and friendly. I would highly recommend!
Richard responded promptly and came round very quickly to get rid of our wasp nest. He was very professional and knowledgeable and we would highly recommend him, and definitely use him again. Thank you!
Came to our house and took a common sense approach and then really quickly figured out the problem and then gave some really genuine and straight forward as to what should happen next. Made us feel comfortable throughout and would highly recommend. A top guy.
Rich was prompt in his communication and within 24hrs was onsite diagnosing the issue. Really friendly guy and problem solved at the first attempt. Would use again and would definitely recommend!
Richard was really quick to come out and investigate a pest problem in my loft on the same day I called him with my concerns. He was incredibly friendly and reassuring, and his services are also very fairly priced. I’d recommend Solutions to anyone and am very grateful for their help!
Richard was brilliant. He swept my chimney with zero impact on the surrounding area: an excellent job. He was reliable, punctual and helpful - he gave me some really helpful advice which I shall be following up. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough, thanks for all your help.
We recently had a rodent problem. We contacted Richard from Solutions Pest Control. We received a prompt response followed by a visit in person. Nothing was too much trouble and the problem investigated, diagnosed and cured within an hour or two. Anyone with a problem this should not hesitate to call Richard as the service he provides is superb.
First time using this company but will deffinately use again. Very friendly and professional. Heartily recommend him. Kate Jones, Kegworth.
We've used Richard for both chimney sweeping and rodent concerns. He's always very efficient, professional and has great advice. We would highly recommend using Solutions Pest Control.
Contacted Richard when workmen found wasps nest on our roof and RBC couldn’t come out for 5 days. Richard got in contact with me straight away and was at the house within 2 hours. Incredibly knowledgeable, reassuring and professional. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Richard to anyone - very reasonable charge and effective - wasps gone with just one visit.
Amazing customer service and professionalism from Richard. He is very knowledgeable. We will be new regulars!
Rich is a really friendly guy, an expert in what he does and got on with the job at hand efficiently and professionally. Would highly recommend using Solutions Pest Control
Very pleased with the fast service Solutions provided, explained cost, what would happen and reassured if any problems he would come straight back. Very reasonable price and im happy we no longer have wasps nest, would definatley recommend or use again if needed.
Very professional, efficient and friendly. I have been using Richard for many years for wasps. He is reliable, reasonably priced and always solves the problem. I would highly recommend him. Thanks
Richard answered my message within minutes and was here within the hour. He found a further 2 wasp nests and treated everything whilst he was here. Absolutely 10 out of 10 service.
Great service - very happy with response and service.
Have used Solutions several times. Allways prompt and efficient excellent advice and service.
I phoned Richard at 4pm and he was with us by 6pm, straight on to the wasps, came back the next day for a follow up, would recommend
Wasp nest promptly treated 4 days ago and seemingly gone for good, thanks.
Friendly, efficient and quick service.
I have a number of open fires and also a wood burning stove. In the past I have dreaded having the chimney's swept. Using Richard @ Solutions has made it so easy. His work is impeccable. He works with the upmost care and efficiency and always causes the minimum of disturbance. He has also carried out routine inspections, sweeps and certification of a rental property for me. I could not recommend him more highly.
Richard came same day as I phoned him, we had a rodent problem in our garden he assessed the situation and placed bait boxes accordingly He came every week to have a look how things are going and refilled boxes as required and we haven’t seen any rodents in the garden since then Great service
I usually leave wasps to do what they want, but discovered two nests in my wood shed. Trying to stack wood while wasps were getting increasingly agitated was not much fun, so I rang Richard in the evening. He came out the next day and explained what he was going to do and what would happen to the wasps. Suitably dressed in protective clothing, he sprayed powder into the nests. I went to look at the nests as advised to leave it for an hour, and no wasps! Brilliant job Richard, thank you.
Used Richard for a few years now, always does a brilliant job...clean, quick, tidy, reliable
Richard arrived the same morning that I called. He was professional and friendly and explained how was best to deal with the wasps inside the brickwork. He answered my questions, put me at ease & left me assured. After the treatment I checked on progress from the safety of the closed window and was very happy to see the situation follow exactly the path that Richard had advised it would! I was greatly relieved to see the outcome sooner than I had expected and very happy to see no further wasp activity. I thoroughly recommend Solutions Pest Control and thank my lucky stars that they are situated so conveniently! I would have no hesitation in reaching out in future. Thanks both, for a super efficient service .
I called Richard at short notice as we were having work done on my elderly parents house and the plumbers found significant evidence of rats in the loft. Richard went out at short notice to inspect the property and found that while rats had been in, there were none currently in residence. He gave us advice on how they were getting in and how to deal with this. He also noted that there was a wasps nest but that this was really an external issue, so didn't need attention at this time. If it became a problem he would come back and sort it. I thanked him and asked what I owed him. He told me there as no charge as he hadn't done anything. I was flabbergasted. This type of service is not something you come across these days. I have not needed to use a pest controller in recent years but if I do, Richard will be getting the call.
Great care taken to protect furnishings and carpets. We use Richard every year. Great service,
Have used Solutions many times as we live in an old house and have had wasps making their nests in the walls each year! They are very careful, focus on safety and do everything right and to the letter. Certificates and safety information are always provided which is a great help. Prompt and courteous, they are a pleasure to deal with. Would not use anyone else and recommend them highly.
When you have two wasp nests in your house cavity walls and wasps are coming through into the house it is very worrying and needs immediate attention. I was put in touch with Rich of Solutions Pest Control who came out quickly, was reassuring, did a very thorough and professional job at a good price too! Thank You!

Excellent job removing and replacing the cracked glass on the log burner. Chimney swept and left everywhere very clean after. Professional job all round. Would highly recommend.
Had wasp nest removed, Great service, would recommend
I've relied on Richard at Solutions for several years now, mostly as our friendly and (extremely) knowledgeable chimney sweep, so when I noticed a lot of wasp activity in the house roof eves he was my first thought to call! He arrived the following day and immediately found I had two nests on opposite sides of the house! The treatment was very convenient as he didn't need to enter the premises and it reduced the wasp activity almost immediately (they get very excited for a few hours after the treatment). I can't recommend Solutions enough. For a trustworthy, prompt and highly knowledgeable service, you can't get any better!
Richard responded to my phone call promptly and arranged to come round later the same day. Recognised the problem (wasp nest) straight away, explained what he could do and then did the work as soon as I agreed. Friendly and helpful. Thoroughly recommended.
Quick response and reasonably priced.
What a service, came within an hour, very professional and expertly dealt with our wasp problem. Highly recommended.
Rapid response extremely professional made me feel at ease and fixed all the issues I had I am full of praise and would not hesitate in recommending.
Used for both chimney sweeping and pest control, no fuss professional service and great advice, would not hesitate in using again— highly recommended.
Richard was booked originally to sweep the chimney which he did an astounding job considering the huge amount of soot up there ......which by the time he had finished .....you would never have known he'd have been there......whilst there it was noticed by Richard that there was a wasp nest.....again he sorted that out whilst he was there too.....such a professional job....clean....and cheaper than the other quote that they got for just the chimney......would highly recommend. .....First Class service......
Always a great service. Professional and does a great job. Knows his stuff.
Excellent service. Very knowledgeable. Problem solved in no time. Would recommend without hesitation.
Richard gave me excellent, prompt service. He is very polite, friendly & knowledgeable and I would not hesitate to recommend .
I have used Solutions for our wood burner chimney for the past 8 years. An excellent service. Absolutely no mess made. Richard is friendly and helpful and his prices are reasonable too.
Whenever we have had a report of a pest issue in one of our properties, Richard has responded without delay, liaised with our tenants and/or us, inspected and reported to us. If action is required, he will deal with it, almost without trace of him having been there. If action is not required, he will say so and not fabricate a job. All in all, he is an excellent contractor and most certainly provides value for money. We are about to engage his chimney cleaning services and I anticipate the quality will be the same.
Responded promptly to my enquiry and came within the hour (on a Sunday) as he was nearby. Very professionally dealt with a wasp nest in the cavity wall of my house - explained clearly what he was doing and why, and what do do afterwards. All wasp activity ceased within half an hour. Good value for money - didn't want payment until I was satisfied that the nest was inactive. I would recommend him and would happily use his services again.
Efficient and expertly done. Having had several wasp nests over the last couple of years I wouldn’t hesitate to call him back whenever there’s another nest! Always professional, friendly and knowledgeable.
Richard responded really promptly and offered me good advice about a fly infestation. He did not try to visit and charge a call out fee as some would have done, as it was not necessary. He was very knowledgeable and trustworthy. I would recommend him.
Richard responded very quickly when I called about a wasps nest. He is professional and went through the procedure with me. No mess and wasps gone. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and use him again for any other pest control.
Richard is very professional and responsive. We’ve used him for various pest control problems over the years and he’s always delivered a quick and effective solution. Would strongly recommend!

Having utilised Rich's services over the last few years for mole issues, I find him to be very professional and offers excellent service. Highly recommended and will certainly continue using his services.
I use Richard annually for my chimney sweep. He arrives on the agreed date and time and completes the sweep using the technology of a sweep and vacuum technique which means my room is left in tidy and dust-free state.

"Richard was amazing. Right from the first phone call he kept me informed of how quickly he could get out to my house to sort the pests (which was the same day), and then having dealt with the pests he fully explained that he was insured and that I would receive a certificate covering his work. He even said to not pay him until the next day when the pests would be gone. Brilliant service and very professional and I will certainly be using him again.

Richard (Solutions Chimney Sweep) was very professional & polite. We hadn't had our chimney swept since our fire was installed and he explained everything to me.

He was recommended to me and I am more than happy to in turn recommend him to anyone in need of a chimney sweep. Will definitely use again.
