First, we schedule your inspection around your timeline—not ours. We know real estate moves fast, so we’re available seven days a week to meet your closing deadlines.
During the inspection, our licensed technician examines every accessible area of your property. We check crawl spaces, attics, basements, and all visible wood structures for signs of termites, wood-boring beetles, and fungal decay. We use professional-grade equipment to detect issues that aren’t visible to the naked eye.
Within 24 hours, you receive your official NPMA-33 report. This isn’t some generic form—it’s a detailed assessment that documents our findings, meets all lender requirements, and gives you actionable information about your property’s condition. If we find issues, we explain exactly what they mean and what your options are.

Our termite inspections in Land O’ Lakes cover everything lenders and insurance companies require. We inspect for active termite infestations, previous damage, wood-boring beetles, carpenter ants, and wood-decaying fungi. Every report includes detailed documentation of conducive conditions that could attract future infestations.
For VA loan buyers, our inspections meet all Department of Veterans Affairs requirements. Florida is a mandatory inspection state for VA loans, and our NPMA-33 reports are accepted by every major lender. We understand the tight timelines involved in VA purchases and prioritize these inspections accordingly.
Land O’ Lakes homeowners face unique challenges with our proximity to water and the humid climate that Formosan termites love. Our inspections account for local conditions—from the sandy soil that subterranean termites tunnel through to the moisture issues common in older properties near the lakes. We don’t just check boxes; we provide insights specific to your property and location.
WDO inspection costs in Land O’ Lakes typically range from $75 to $150, depending on the size and complexity of your property. Most real estate transactions include this cost in negotiations between buyer and seller.
For VA loans, buyers are now allowed to pay for required termite inspections as of 2022 VA policy changes. We provide upfront pricing over the phone, so you know exactly what to expect. No hidden fees, no surprises—just transparent pricing that fits your budget and timeline.
Our WDO inspections examine all accessible areas for active termite colonies, previous damage, and conducive conditions. We look for mud tubes, termite frass, damaged wood, and signs of wood-boring beetles or carpenter ants.
In Land O’ Lakes, we pay special attention to areas where wood contacts soil, moisture issues around plumbing, and the sandy soil conditions that Formosan termites prefer. We also check for wood-decaying fungi that thrive in Florida’s humidity. Our detailed report documents everything we find with photos and clear explanations of what each finding means for your property.
WDO inspection reports are typically valid for 90 days from the inspection date for real estate transactions. This gives you enough time to complete your purchase while ensuring the information remains current.
If your closing gets delayed beyond 90 days, you’ll need a new inspection. We keep detailed records of previous inspections, so if you need an update, we can often provide expedited service. For ongoing homeownership, we recommend annual or biennial inspections to catch problems early, especially in Florida’s termite-active climate.
While cash buyers aren’t required by lenders to get WDO inspections, it’s still one of the smartest investments you can make. Termite damage can cost thousands to repair—often more than the inspection costs.
Florida’s climate means termite activity year-round, and Land O’ Lakes properties face particular risks from both subterranean and Formosan termites. Even if you’re not financing, protecting your investment with a professional inspection gives you negotiating power and prevents costly surprises after closing. Many cash buyers use our inspection results to negotiate price adjustments or require sellers to address issues before closing.
A WDO (Wood Destroying Organism) inspection is more comprehensive than a basic termite inspection. While termite inspections focus only on termite activity, WDO inspections examine all wood-destroying pests including termites, wood-boring beetles, carpenter ants, and wood-decaying fungi.
For real estate transactions in Florida, lenders typically require the full WDO inspection and NPMA-33 report. This comprehensive approach gives you a complete picture of any wood-destroying threats to your property. Our WDO inspections meet all state licensing requirements and provide the official documentation your lender needs.
We typically schedule WDO inspections within 24-48 hours of your call, often with same-day availability for urgent situations. Real estate transactions move fast, and we understand that inspection deadlines can make or break your closing.
As a family-owned business, we have the flexibility to work around your schedule, including evenings and weekends. We’re available seven days a week because we know your home purchase can’t wait for normal business hours. Call us directly and you’ll speak with the owner, not a call center—we’ll make sure your inspection happens when you need it.
