Pest Control Standard-Of-Care Evaluations In Georgia

Trusted Evaluations For Pest Control Disputes

A homeowner keeps finding termite activity months after a company charged for a full treatment. An attorney is handed two conflicting opinions about whether a technician followed label instructions. An insurance company needs to know if a claim stems from genuine negligence or an unavoidable outcome. A pest control company wants an outside review of its own file before a dispute reaches litigation. In every one of these situations, the real question is the same: did the pest control company do what a competent operator should have done, given the conditions at the property?

 

That is the question a standard-of-care evaluation answers. Structural Pest Claim Group provides independent standard-of-care evaluations for property owners, attorneys, insurance professionals, and pest management companies across Georgia. We do not treat pests or apply pesticides, and we are not affiliated with any pest control company or insurer. We review the record, compare it against accepted industry practice and Georgia regulation, and document what we find in language that holds up in claims, negotiations, and legal proceedings.

How A Standard-Of-Care Evaluation Works

A standard-of-care evaluation is an independent review of whether a pest control company performed its work according to accepted industry practices and Georgia regulations. We examine inspection reports, treatment records, contracts, WDIR/NPMA-33 forms, service tickets, and supporting documentation to determine if the inspection was thorough, the treatment was appropriate, products were applied correctly, and follow-up services matched the company’s commitments.

 

Our team compares the documentation against Georgia Structural Pest Control Commission requirements, product label instructions, and established industry standards. If records are incomplete or inconsistent, we clearly identify those issues without making assumptions. You receive a detailed written report explaining what the evidence supports, where deficiencies exist, and whether the company’s actions met the accepted standard of care.

Why Attorneys, Insurers, And Property Owners Choose Structural Pest Claim Group

  •       We are genuinely independent. We are not affiliated with any pest control company, insurance carrier, or law firm, so our findings are not shaped by who is paying for the evaluation.

  •       Our written reports are built for attorneys and insurance professionals who need findings they can rely on during negotiations, claims review, and legal proceedings, not vague impressions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can A Standard-Of-Care Evaluation Determine Who Is At Fault?

We do not issue legal conclusions about fault or liability. We document whether the actions taken were consistent with accepted practice, which attorneys and insurers then use as part of their own determination.

How Far Back Can You Evaluate A Pest Control Company's Records?

We can review records from any time period the company or property owner retained, though older files sometimes have gaps that limit what conclusions the documentation can support.

Do You Need Access To The Property, Or Just The Paperwork?

Most evaluations are based on records review, but we may recommend a site visit if the documentation raises questions that only a current inspection can answer.
