Termite damage builds quietly for years before it's visible — our Seven Lakes, NC inspectors know exactly where to look first. 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.
We move fast on visible swarm or mud-tube reports, since waiting rarely shrinks the problem.
Foundation perimeter measurements set the price, given to you before treatment starts. We maintain a running record of every station check, which we can share whenever you'd like to review it.
Non-repellent liquid barriers, in-ground bait stations, moisture meters, and acoustic detection tools. We also carry backup moisture meters, since accurate readings separate a real diagnosis from a guess.
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.
Drywood activity doesn't touch soil, so treatment targets the specific members showing frass or kick-out holes.
We can turn around official wood-destroying organism reports fast for a closing deadline.
Photos and moisture readings document structural damage so you know the scope before repairs start. Basement and crawl space access points get particular attention during inspection, since those areas often show early activity first.
Termiticide applied to soil and footings before slab pour, protecting new builds from day one. 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.
Full foundation and accessible wood get inspected, with findings documented in writing.
Treatment is scheduled with a written warranty term, plus a monitoring schedule if bait stations go in.
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 Seven Lakes and the surrounding Seven Lakes, NC region, with priority given to active swarms, mud tubes, and closing deadlines. We factor in soil conditions and tree cover across Seven Lakes when scheduling routine versus priority inspections. Soil conditions shift termite activity year to year, which is part of why we adjust inspection focus based on recent regional weather patterns.
One needs ground moisture and builds visible tubes, the other nests directly inside the wood itself. If you're unsure whether you need prevention or active treatment, we'll help you figure out which situation actually applies.
Cost depends on foundation size and whether it's liquid barrier or bait stations, quoted in writing after seeing the property.
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.
Over-the-counter sprays usually repel locally rather than eliminate the colony, which can complicate professional treatment later. 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. We recommend a yearly check-in since soil grading and mulch buildup change year to year.
A documented inspection today costs less than structural repair later.
