Whether you’re a long-time homeowner wanting to ensure your home is safe, or you need one as part of a real estate transaction, our termite inspections give you the answers you need to make the best decision. For thorough and honest termite inspections and WDO reports in the Portland OR and Vancouver WA area, you can count on our certified professionals.
Our Comprehensive Termite and WDO Inspection Process
Termite and WDO inspections are only as good as the process behind them, and ours go way beyond a simple look-around. Our certified termite exterminator will systematically examine the interior and exterior of your property, from the foundation to the attic, to identify any signs of concern.
Our process involves looking for three key signs of trouble and providing you with a detailed report of our findings:
- Evidence of Wood-Destroying Insects: We identify visible evidence of termites (like mud tubes and damaged wood), carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles, and other destructive pests.
- Signs of Wood-Decay Fungi: The damp Pacific Northwest climate can lead to wood rot. We identify areas of fungal growth that can compromise your home’s structural wood.
- Conducive Conditions: We proactively report on conditions that attract pests and fungi, such as wood-to-soil contact, excessive moisture, plumbing leaks, or poor ventilation. Identifying these issues is key to preventing future problems.
- Clear and Accurate Reporting: After the inspection, you will receive a clear, detailed report outlining all of our findings in an easy-to-understand format.
