“I’ve used Griggs & Browne twice and they were thorough and unbiased both times.”
“my Middlesex home was inspected in 2002 by a company called Griggs & Browne.”
I have with working with Griggs & Browne for over 10 years, across 3 different properties and could not be happier. I've also been lucky to work with their service technician Lenci Gjino who is the consummate professional. His deep knowledge and expertise have been invaluable and my properties have benefited greatly from his diligence and hard work 👍👍 James Galli Essex, CT
Chris was great and super friendly. He was also super quick and very professional and informative!
Lenci has been our guy for 16 years. Only the best. Bees, ants flying squirrel, anything. Can’t say enough good things about the service.
One of technicians what’s behind me in the right hand lane I am already driving 70 and they finally passed me in the left lane honked their horn at me and then got in front of me only to slow down and then when I passed them because I wasn’t taking the same exit the female driver with short hair was laying on her horn, calling me an asshole, and flipping me off. If I needed pest control, I know this wouldn’t be the company to go with if they are so asinine to a stranger on the road.
We’ve been with Griggs and Brown for several years and specifically have had Darren as our service tech. He is top notch in customer service, professionalism and knowledge and is very personable. He always explains what he’s doing and why. Great service!
