🌐 Termite & Wood-Destroying Insect (WDI) Inspections

Protecting Structural Integrity from Hidden Damage

Termites and other wood-destroying insects (WDI/WDO) are among the most costly threats to residential and commercial properties in the Southwest. These pests often go undetected until significant structural damage has already occurred, compromising both safety and property value.

At Nova Inspections & Improvements, we provide comprehensive termite and WDI inspections to identify current activity, past damage, and conditions conducive to future infestations. Our inspections are performed according to state and industry standards, ensuring accurate, unbiased findings.

Our inspection process includes:

  • Careful evaluation of visible and accessible structural wood components

  • Identification of active termite activity or evidence of previous infestations

  • Detection of conditions that promote WDI activity (excessive moisture, wood-to-soil contact, poor drainage)

  • Documentation of any visible damage with detailed reporting and photos

Why termite inspections matter:

  • Early detection prevents expensive repairs and structural compromise

  • Required by most lenders during real estate transactions

  • Provides buyers and sellers confidence in property condition

  • Protects long-term investment value

Our findings are clearly presented in a professional report, which can be used in negotiations, real estate closings, or ongoing maintenance planning. If activity or damage is observed, we recommend appropriate corrective measures, including treatment or further evaluation by a licensed pest control professional.

By integrating termite and WDI inspections into your property evaluation, you reduce risk and ensure long-term protection of your investment.
