Accurate and Complete Inspections

The termite inspection process begins with a request from one of the following: the homeowner, the mortgage company, the realtor, or the attorney. Once we’ve set the time and price of your inspection, here’s what you can expect from your trusted A-Action expert:

Starting with the foundation, your inspector will begin an intensive search for signs of present and past termite infestation such as termite shelter tubes or damaged wood.
The basement or crawl space will be checked, examining the sill plate, band board, and floor joists for weak spots and signs of WDOs like frass, hollowing, and dead or living insects.
The other floors of the property including attics will also be checked for boreholes, exit holes or nests on baseboards, door/window frames and walls.
Your technician will even alert you if they find anything else of concern like rodents and other pests.
What’s more, with your convenience in mind, most inspections take less than one hour to complete!

The inspection will accurately determine if there is any visible evidence of a past or present infestation of wood destroying organisms. After inspection, your professional WDO inspector will provide the necessary certification letter or detailed written report indicating any signs of termites, WDIs and WDOs and recommendations for treatment.

What Our Customers Are Saying

We heard some rustling in the attic one evening. We called Adam at A-Action. He was there the very next day. He found a broken vent and set a couple of traps.
