Does the termite inspection cost anything?
No. It's completely free, with no obligation to book treatment.How do I know if I even have termites?
Most homeowners don't — that's exactly why an inspection matters. Damage is often hidden inside walls and framing.Are all termites the same?
No. Subterranean termites (the most destructive) live underground and build mud tubes; drywood termites nest directly inside wood.
Termites don't announce themselves. A colony can feed on the wood inside your walls, floors, and foundation for years before any visible sign appears — by which point the structural damage is often already significant.
A free termite inspection is the only reliable way to catch it early, before it turns into a five-figure repair bill.

Why termites are so easy to miss
Termites feed from the inside out. A support beam can look completely normal on the surface while being hollowed out underneath — homeowners often only discover the problem when a floorboard gives way or a door frame crumbles.
Warning signs to watch for
- Mud tubes running along the foundation or exterior walls
- Wood that sounds hollow when tapped
- Discarded wings near windowsills or doors (a sign of a swarm)
- Small piles of what looks like sawdust or coffee grounds (termite droppings)
- Paint that looks bubbled or wood that looks slightly sunken
Why isn't termite damage covered by insurance?
Most homeowners insurance treats termite damage as a preventable maintenance issue, not a covered peril — which is exactly why catching an infestation early, before major damage occurs, matters so much.
What does a termite inspection check?
| Area | What's checked |
|---|---|
| Foundation & exterior | Mud tubes, cracks, soil-to-wood contact |
| Crawl space | Moisture, wood-to-ground contact, visible damage |
| Framing & interior wood | Hollow spots, sagging, discoloration |
