What Ia A Termite Inspection?
A termite inspection is a visual inspection of the readily accessible areas of a home for evidence of wood-destroying insects (WDI) and wood-destroying organisms (WDO). Our inspector will thoroughly examine the indoors, as well as the outdoors of the house. Any place having woodwork or wooden furniture will be checked visually including the attics, basements, and crawl spaces.
Termite Treatment Methods
Although there are a number of ways to deal with a termite infestation, the most effective one seems to be a chemical treatment. The objective of the chemical treatment of termites is to create a continuous termiticide barrier between the termite colony and wood in a building. This can be done by applying termiticide in the soil on both sides of the foundation wall to prevent the action of termites. It creates a barrier that stops the termites from entering the house.
How can termites be prevented?
There are several ways by which a termite infestation can be prevented. One of the ways is to hire a pesticide company’s services to spray liquid termiticide on the foundation before the concrete is laid.
Some situations that give rise to termite infestation are earth to wood contact at support posts, cellulose debris and form boards left in the crawlspace, improper drainage systems, and inadequate ventilation in the crawlspace. Termite infestation can be prevented to a large extent if the house owner keeps these points in mind and constructs the property accordingly.

Before you invest in a home, it’s a wise move to make sure that there isn’t any wood-destroying insect or termite damage, which could end up costing you far more than you counted on. This inspection will thoroughly examine a home’s interior and exterior structure for existing termite damage and any signs of termites actively nesting inside the home.
Putting a home on the market without first having it professionally inspected could be a huge detriment to your ability to get the most from your investment. For this inspection, we’ll thoroughly inspect a home prior to it being listed. This will facilitate an opportunity for any issues to be corrected well in advance of a buyer’s inspection and will give you a chance to establish good, productive communication with prospective buyers at the onset of negotiations.
This inspection is designed to give a new homeowner confidence with the quality of their investment before it’s time to start moving in. We’ll arrive prior to the builder’s final walkthrough to perform a detailed assessment of the home’s condition, informing you of any issues that we encounter so that necessary repairs can be arranged with the contractors.
When a defective component is discovered during our inspection of a property, you may feel a little let down due to your expectations of the home not being met. That’s why we offer Re-Inspections to give you peace of mind and confidence once a seller has made sure that any defects are corrected. We’ll come back to perform an additional assessment of the home, focusing on the component that was originally found to be defective to make sure that any safety issues have been resolved and that everything is in working order.
