Mud tubes on the foundation and frass near a window sill both mean the same thing: active feeding, and every week counts. Homeowners insurance almost never covers termite damage, which makes early detection the only real financial protection you have.
Our inspectors carry state wood-destroying organism licensing and produce reports accepted for real estate closings.
Swarms and mud tubes jump the queue — active colonies cause damage every day they're left untreated.
You'll see the full cost tied to actual foundation length, not a phone-quote guess. We maintain a running record of every station check, which we can share whenever you'd like to review it.
Borate treatments and termiticide injection rods, not a surface spray that only repels rather than eliminates. We cross-check readings with a second meter on any borderline case.
Worker termites carry the termiticide back to the colony, which is the point of a full perimeter trench.
Useful where trenching isn't practical — ongoing monitoring catches activity before it becomes structural.
Localized injection, and structural fumigation when needed, for colonies living inside the wood itself.
We can turn around official wood-destroying organism reports fast for a closing deadline.
We assess joists, sill plates, and subfloor before connecting you with repair contractors. Moisture-prone crawl spaces are checked closely, since that's frequently where subterranean activity shows up before it's visible elsewhere.
New construction gets a termite barrier in place before the concrete goes down, not after. It's worth scheduling an annual re-inspection even after treatment, since grading changes can develop over time.
Location and type of sign determine whether this is a subterranean or drywood dispatch.
An inspector arrives with moisture meters and acoustic tools to confirm activity before recommending anything.
You get a complete record, including photos of any mud tubes or damage found on-site.
Every job closes with a documented warranty and, where relevant, a station-check calendar.
Found mud tubes behind our water heater during a routine check — caught it before it reached the framing.
Needed a WDO report fast for a closing deadline. Had it in my inbox the same day as the inspection.
Bait stations checked every quarter for two years straight. No surprises, no missed visits.
They found drywood termites in a rafter we'd never have checked ourselves. Saved us a much bigger repair.
Refinancing required a current WDO report and ours had expired. They got an inspector out within two days to meet the lender deadline.
Licensed inspectors cover Woburn and the surrounding Woburn, MA region, with priority given to active swarms, mud tubes, and closing deadlines. We factor in soil conditions and tree cover across Woburn when scheduling routine versus priority inspections. We also track regional soil moisture trends, since drought years and wet years both shift where subterranean colonies tend to concentrate.
One needs ground moisture and builds visible tubes, the other nests directly inside the wood itself. We're glad to walk through the difference between preventive and curative treatment options during the initial inspection call.
Priced by linear foot of foundation and treatment type — we give an exact written quote after inspection, not a phone estimate.
A wood-destroying organism report is commonly required for financing, and we issue licensed reports formatted for that.
Modern termiticide treatment is built for long-term elimination, generally backed by a multi-year term.
DIY treatment often scatters the colony instead of killing it, making the eventual professional job harder. Simple changes to mulch depth or irrigation runoff near the foundation can meaningfully reduce future termite pressure.
Seeing a swarm is often the first visible sign a colony has matured enough to reproduce. It's also worth scheduling an annual re-inspection even after initial treatment, since new conducive conditions can develop.
A documented inspection today costs less than structural repair later.
