We offer detailed and thorough inspections as well as local and complete treatments (and fumigation) depending on your needs.
Many experienced agents and careful sellers request a pre-listing inspection to find any possible issues that may compromise the sale of a property.
Here are some of the advantages of getting a pre-listing inspection:
Most buyers, realtors and lenders recommend or request a termite inspection at time of making an offer to find if there are any infestations or costly repairs.
A major advantage to getting a purchase inspection is to better understand the condition of property and potential costs of treatment and/or repairs. In addition, most lenders will require a pest inspection when funding a refinance.
Our reports list active infestations (section 1 items), issues conducive to infestation (section 2), inaccessible areas in need of further inspection (section 3) and relevant informational items (section 4). Each item addressed is followed with a recommendation and the cost of some items may be estimated upon request.
Most reports are faxed and/or emailed (PDF format) the following business day and a hard copy is sent via US Mail upon request.
A limited inspection deals with a specific problem area of a structure. We will be happy to do a free limited inspection to determine what kind of infestation, moisture, or dry rot problem that you may be dealing with. We will also give a free competitive estimate on an existing termite report that you may have.
Treatment

Upon request, a fumigation schedule and checklist is sent to you and our workmen will check the structure is prepared for the fumigation and clear of any visible Drywood Termite pellets.
For Subterranean Termite infestations, we provide a complete perimeter chemical treatment to residential and commercial structures with Termidor termiticides and we offer a 5-year warranty against re-infestation of Subterranean Termites to perimeter-treated structures. Treatment consists of establishing a complete underground termiticide barrier along the entire perimeter of the house.
When feasible, small Wood Boring Beetle and Drywood Termite infestations may be treated locally. The treatment consists of drilling a series of small holes in the infested and adjacent wood members and injecting termiticide (Termidor, Tim-Bor, or BoraCare). Areas treated are guaranteed for 3-years, guarantee applies to treated area only.
