Termite Inspections in East Texas

Termites can do serious damage inside walls, crawlspaces and foundations long before you see any sign of them. East Texas, with its humid summers and wooded lots, is prime termite country. Today I’m proud to offer termite inspections across East Texas as a licensed wood destroying insect (WDI) inspector.

I inspect only. I never sell treatment, so you get an honest, unbiased report on the home’s condition with no sales pitch attached.

Why don’t you offer termite treatment?

Keeping inspection and treatment separate means my only job is to tell you the truth about the home. There’s no incentive to find a problem that isn’t there.
