Since Tom McFadden first started the company in 1978, with a strong work ethic and a belief that treating people right would always matter more than shortcuts, McFadden Pest Control has stayed a true family business. Over the years, his daughter Lori became the steady voice and backbone of the office, and his grandson Heath stepped in to carry the business into its next chapter.
Today, McFadden Pest Control is still a family-run company, strengthened by each generation and grounded in the same commitment to honest work, real relationships, and taking care of our neighbors.
Lori McFadden Gunther was a vital part of carrying McFadden Pest Control from Tom’s early vision into the company it is today. She was deeply proud to work alongside her family, serving the same Charleston community her father began protecting in 1978.
Day to day, Lori kept the office running smoothly, made sure every customer felt heard, and supported the team with the warmth and integrity people expect from a true family business. Her influence is woven into how we answer the phone, schedule each visit, and show up for our neighbors — and her example continues to guide the way we serve every day.
McFadden Pest Control was built on a simple idea: take care of people the right way, and the rest will follow. In an industry that often feels rushed or impersonal, we’ve chosen a different path; one rooted in consistency, respect, and real relationships.
We’re not just showing up to treat a home or business. We’re showing up to take care of people who trust us with their space. That means being on time, presenting ourselves professionally, and doing the job right without cutting corners — because that’s what real service looks like.
We aim to provide the highest quality customer service experience in pest control — without exception.
We’re building a reputation across the Lowcountry as a pest control company people can count on—through consistency, professionalism, and strong relationships.
Our work is guided by a few core values that shape everything we do, including:
We operate with purpose and a strong moral foundation
We do what we say, and we stand behind our work
We treat our clients and team like they matter—because they do
We’re invested in the people and places we serve
We take ownership of every job, every time
These aren’t just words. They show up in how we treat our clients, how we run our business, and how we represent ourselves in the field.
When you choose McFadden Pest Control, you’re not just hiring a service — you’re working with a team that values relationships, takes pride in presentation, and believes the small details still matter.
