Termite damage builds quietly for years before it's visible — our Cleveland Heights, OH 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.
Swarms and mud tubes jump the queue — active colonies cause damage every day they're left untreated.
Foundation perimeter measurements set the price, given to you before treatment starts. Bait station monitoring logs are kept on file and available to you at any time, not just at the annual check-in.
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.
Stations placed at intervals, checked on schedule to intercept colonies before they reach the structure.
Drywood activity doesn't touch soil, so treatment targets the specific members showing frass or kick-out holes.
Licensed documentation formatted to lender and closing timelines, delivered when your transaction needs it.
We assess joists, sill plates, and subfloor before connecting you with repair contractors. Basement and crawl space access points get particular attention during inspection, since those areas often show early activity first.
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.
Tell us what you're seeing — mud tubes, swarmers, frass, damaged wood — so we send the right inspector and gear.
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.
We serve Cleveland Heights and nearby communities, moving fastest for active infestations and time-sensitive real estate inspections. We factor in soil conditions and tree cover across Cleveland Heights 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.
Subterranean colonies live in soil and travel via mud tubes; drywood colonies live entirely inside dry wood, no soil contact needed. 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.
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.
