Hanover Scope and Scheduling Notes
Hanover is handled as a New Mexico local-service market where the homeowner should verify city limits, county rules, and provider service area before relying on a quote. When place-area or population data is unavailable, the safer comparison is to verify whether the provider prices Hanover as an in-area job or as an extended service-area visit.

| Warranty limits | Some warranties exclude sanitation issues, structural entry points, or heavy infestations. | What conditions would void the service guarantee? |
