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.
Inspection documentation is formatted for lenders, not just a verbal summary of what was found.
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. 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.
Liquid termiticide trenched along the full foundation perimeter, engineered for colony-level elimination through contact transfer.
Stations placed at intervals, checked on schedule to intercept colonies before they reach the structure.
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.
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.
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.
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.
We serve Ontario and nearby communities, moving fastest for active infestations and time-sensitive real estate inspections. Older Ontario neighborhoods with mature tree cover tend to carry higher subterranean termite pressure, which shapes inspection priority. 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. We're glad to walk through the difference between preventive and curative treatment options during the initial inspection call.
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.
Non-repellent barriers typically carry a multi-year warranty, with annual re-inspection recommended.
DIY treatment often scatters the colony instead of killing it, making the eventual professional job harder. We can also advise on landscaping changes — mulch placement, irrigation adjustments — that reduce moisture conditions termites favor.
Swarmers are reproductive termites leaving a mature colony to start new ones — a swarm usually means an established colony nearby. 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.
