You’re not just getting a piece of paper. You’re getting real answers about what’s happening inside your walls right now.
Spring Hill’s year-round warmth means termites never take a break. While other homeowners discover damage after it’s too late, you’ll know exactly what you’re dealing with before you sign anything or invest another dollar.
Our WDO inspections dig deeper than surface-level checks. We examine every accessible area where wood-destroying organisms hide, document what we find, and give you a clear path forward—whether that’s peace of mind or a treatment plan that actually works.
We’re not another corporate pest company. You work directly with the owner, get answers when you call, and receive the kind of personal attention that actually matters when you’re making big property decisions.
We’ve built our reputation on straight talk and reliable service throughout Hernando County. Our state certifications mean we know what to look for, but our family values mean we treat your property like our own.
Over 100 five-star reviews don’t happen by accident. They happen when you answer every call personally, respond within 24 hours, and deliver exactly what you promise.
First, we examine your property’s exterior—foundation, siding, windows, doors, and any areas where moisture might attract termites. We’re looking for mud tubes, damaged wood, and conditions that create problems.
Next comes the interior inspection. We check accessible areas like crawl spaces, basements, and attics where termites typically establish themselves. Every piece of evidence gets documented with photos and detailed notes.
Within hours, you receive a comprehensive report that meets VA loan requirements and real estate standards. The report includes our findings, risk assessment, and specific recommendations. No confusing jargon—just clear information you can actually use to make informed decisions about your property.

Your WDO inspection covers all wood-destroying organisms that threaten Spring Hill properties—subterranean termites, drywood termites, wood-boring beetles, and fungi that cause wood decay. We examine every accessible area where these pests establish themselves.
Florida’s climate creates perfect conditions for termite activity year-round. With 13 termite colonies per acre in our state, your property faces constant exposure. Our inspection identifies active infestations, previous damage, and conditions that attract future problems.
VA loans require WDO inspections throughout Florida, and our reports meet all federal requirements. The inspection is valid for 90 days, giving you plenty of time to complete your real estate transaction. We also provide the documentation needed for FHA loans, conventional mortgages, and cash purchases where lenders or buyers request termite clearance.
WDO inspections in Spring Hill typically cost between $100-200, depending on your property size and complexity. The exact price varies based on square footage, accessibility, and whether you need additional documentation for specific loan requirements.
For VA loans, sellers often cover this cost as part of negotiations, though recent rule changes allow buyers to pay when required. We provide upfront pricing over the phone, so you know exactly what to expect before we arrive.
The investment makes sense when you consider that termite damage repairs can cost thousands of dollars. Early detection through professional inspection protects both your immediate transaction and long-term property value.
We examine all accessible areas for evidence of wood-destroying organisms—live termites, mud tubes, damaged wood, frass (termite droppings), and fungal decay. The inspection covers foundations, crawl spaces, attics, and exterior areas where pests typically establish themselves.
Beyond active infestations, we document conditions that attract termites: moisture problems, wood-to-ground contact, leaky pipes, and areas with poor ventilation. These “conducive conditions” help predict future risk even when no current activity exists.
Our report includes detailed findings, photographic evidence, and specific recommendations. For real estate transactions, we clearly indicate whether the property passes or requires treatment before closing. Every report meets state certification requirements and federal lending standards.
WDO inspection reports are valid for 90 days from the inspection date for most real estate transactions and loan requirements. This timeframe gives buyers and sellers sufficient time to complete closing while ensuring the information remains current and accurate.
If your closing extends beyond 90 days, you’ll need a new inspection to maintain compliance with lender requirements. However, most Spring Hill real estate transactions close well within this window, making timing rarely an issue.
The 90-day validity period reflects the reality that termite activity and property conditions can change. Fresh inspections provide the most reliable information for making important property decisions and satisfying loan requirements.
Yes, WDO inspections are mandatory for VA loans throughout Florida due to the state’s high termite activity and year-round breeding conditions. The VA requires these inspections in areas classified as “Moderate to Heavy” or “Very Heavy” infestation zones—which includes all of Florida.
The inspection must be completed by a state-licensed professional and meet federal standards for loan approval. Recent VA rule changes allow borrowers to pay for required inspections, though sellers often cover this cost during negotiations.
Without a passing WDO report, your VA loan cannot proceed to closing. Any identified termite activity or damage must be treated and cleared before the loan approval becomes final. We provide the documentation and timeline needed to keep your transaction on track.
If we discover active termite activity or damage, the report will recommend specific treatment before the property can receive clearance. The severity of findings determines whether you need localized treatment, comprehensive soil treatment, or more extensive intervention.
For real estate transactions, sellers typically handle treatment costs and provide clearance documentation before closing. We coordinate with treatment providers to ensure all work meets industry standards and loan requirements.
Treatment doesn’t necessarily derail your purchase timeline. Most termite issues can be resolved within 2-3 weeks when addressed promptly. We work directly with buyers, sellers, and real estate agents to minimize delays and provide clear communication throughout the process.
Annual termite inspections are recommended for all Spring Hill properties due to Florida’s year-round termite activity and high colony density. With 13 termite colonies per acre statewide, regular monitoring provides your best protection against costly damage.
Properties with previous termite history, moisture issues, or extensive landscaping may benefit from more frequent inspections. New construction should be inspected within the first year, then annually thereafter to catch any developing problems early.
Regular inspections cost far less than damage repairs and help maintain your property value over time. Early detection allows for targeted treatment instead of extensive remediation, saving both money and structural integrity.
