Professional Termite Inspections That Protect Your Investment

A termite inspection is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your Houston home. The Greater Houston area faces year-round pressure from subterranean and Formosan termites, and most infestations go undetected until significant structural damage has already occurred. A thorough professional inspection identifies active colonies, termite damage, and conditions that invite future infestations.

Resolve Pest and Termite Control provides licensed Wood Destroying Insect (WDI) inspections with official T-5 and NPMA-33 documentation. Our reports are accepted by mortgage lenders and title companies for real estate transactions, including VA and FHA loan closings. We examine every accessible area — foundation, crawl space, attic, garage, and exterior wood — and provide a detailed written report of findings.

The $175 inspection fee is fully credited toward treatment if you schedule within 60 days. Whether you are buying a home, selling a property, or simply want to confirm your current home is protected, Resolve delivers a thorough, documented inspection with honest findings — no upsells, no pressure.

What Houston Homeowners and Realtors Say

Fast Turnaround Lender-Accepted Reports Honest Findings
“Our lender required a termite inspection before closing. Resolve scheduled same-day, the report was ready the next morning, and the process couldn't have been easier. Highly recommend.”

“David found early-stage termite activity that our previous inspector missed. Because we caught it before it spread, the treatment cost was a fraction of what it would have been. Worth every dollar.”

“Used Resolve for our annual inspection. David is thorough, explains everything he finds, and never pushes treatments you don't need. Exactly what you want in a termite inspector.”

Case Study

Catching a Hidden Infestation Before a Real Estate Closing

The Problem

A Sugar Land home buyer requested a routine termite inspection before their mortgage closing. The property had passed a visual walk-through during the general home inspection, but the buyer wanted independent documentation for their lender.

Our Solution

Resolve's WDO inspection identified early-stage subterranean activity in the crawl space — mud tubes on a pier and evidence of feeding damage on a floor joist. The official NPMA-33 report was delivered within 24 hours, and the buyer negotiated a treatment credit with the seller.

The Outcome

The buyer closed on schedule after the seller arranged treatment. The WDIR documentation protected the lender, and the buyer avoided purchasing a home with an undisclosed infestation.

Termite Inspection FAQs

What is a Wood Destroying Insect (WDI) inspection?
A WDI inspection — also called a termite inspection or WDIR — is a professional examination of a property for evidence of wood-destroying insects, primarily termites. The findings are documented on an official T-5 or NPMA-33 form that lenders and title companies accept for real estate transactions.
How much does a termite inspection cost?
Resolve's termite inspection fee is $175 + tax. This fee is fully credited toward the cost of treatment if you schedule within 60 days of the inspection. There are no hidden charges — the $175 covers the inspection, the report, and the official documentation.
How long does a termite inspection take?
A typical inspection takes 45–90 minutes depending on the size and accessibility of the property. Larger homes with crawl spaces or multiple structures may take slightly longer.
Is the inspection report accepted by lenders?
Yes. Resolve issues official T-5 and NPMA-33 forms that are accepted by conventional lenders, FHA, VA, and most title companies in Texas. If your specific lender has a particular form requirement, let us know when you schedule.
What happens if termites are found during the inspection?
If active termites or damage is found, we provide a written treatment plan and quote at no additional charge. Your $175 inspection fee is credited toward the treatment cost if you proceed within 60 days. We do not pressure you to book — the choice is always yours.
Do I need an annual termite inspection?
In Houston's climate, an annual inspection is strongly recommended. Termites are active year-round, and early detection prevents minor activity from becoming costly structural damage. Annual inspection plans are available for existing customers.
Can Resolve take over my existing termite warranty?
Yes. If you have an active warranty from another provider and want to switch, Resolve can conduct an inspection and assume monitoring responsibility. This is a common request when customers are dissatisfied with their current provider's service.
