Inspection and Next Steps
Inspection Service Is Separate From Termite Treatment
The inspection documents visible conditions within the approved accessible scope. If treatment is recommended, it must be completed by a qualified treatment provider.
- Accessible areas and inspection purpose confirmed beforehand
- Visible evidence and practical limitations explained
- Treatment is not included or represented as part of the inspection
- No guarantee that hidden or future termite activity can be ruled out
A Clear Service Process
From Reported Evidence to Clear Findings
The goal is to define the property and inspection purpose, review accessible areas, and explain the observed findings and practical next steps.
- 1Describe the Property and Concern
Share the property type, visible signs, locations, access, timing, documentation needs, and useful photos.
- 2Confirm the Inspection Scope
Review accessible areas, limitations, appointment requirements, price, and any required documentation before scheduling.
- 3Complete the Inspection and Review Findings
Accessible agreed areas are inspected and the visible findings, limitations, and recommended next steps are explained.
No visual inspection can guarantee that hidden or future termite activity is absent. Finished walls, stored items, inaccessible areas, weather, and property conditions may limit what can be observed.
