What Our Termite Inspection Includes
Every Termite Inspection Pembroke Pines FL includes a full visual and technical evaluation of accessible areas, a same-day WDO report, and a written treatment plan if activity is found. Here is what is covered in the flat rate.
Full Foundation and Crawlspace Check
We inspect the entire accessible foundation perimeter, including stem walls, expansion joints, and pier footings. We probe soil with a rodding tool and check for mud tubes. Crawlspaces are inspected with a flashlight and moisture meter when access allows.
Attic and Roof Truss Inspection
We enter the attic through the access hatch and inspect roof trusses, rafters, and sheathing for frass, hollow wood, and termite galleries. A borescope inspection camera lets us check tight corners without damaging insulation or drywall.
Interior Wood and Moisture Scan
We check baseboards, door frames, window sills, and hardwood floors with a sounding tool and moisture meter. High moisture readings are logged because damp wood attracts termites. We also look for bubbling paint and soft spots that indicate hidden galleries.
Same-Day WDO Report
You receive the official FDACS WDO inspection report by email within two hours of the walkthrough. It includes a graph of the structure, findings, and recommendations. This is the form Florida lenders and title companies require for closings.
Written Treatment Quote
If we find active termites, we provide a written quote the same day. Options include Termidor soil treatment, Sentricon bait stations, or tent fumigation. The quote itemizes labor, materials, and warranty terms so you can compare.
Service overview
What Termite Inspection Pembroke Pines FL Involves
A Termite Inspection Pembroke Pines FL is a systematic search for wood-destroying organisms using a termite inspection flashlight, moisture meter, sounding tool, and Termatrac T3i detection device. We check foundation walls for mud tubes, probe accessible wood with a soil rodding tool, and inspect attics and roof trusses for frass pellets and hollow-sounding timber. The inspection covers roughly 1,200 to 2,500 square feet in 45 to 90 minutes, depending on attic access and how much furniture blocks the walls.
Pembroke Pines sits on sandy soil and high water tables, which keeps subterranean termites active year-round. Swarmers around windows and lights show up most often from March through June, and Formosan termites hit neighborhoods near 33024 and 33026 hard. If you are buying or selling, a real estate termite inspection Pembroke Pines report is usually required before closing. We also get calls for a same day termite inspection near me Pembroke Pines when a homeowner spots mud tubes on a garage wall.
How we workWe verify the cause, compare realistic options, and confirm the repair before we leave.
The service timeline
Our Termite Inspection Process
The process flexes to the condition, but these checkpoints keep decisions clear.
Schedule and Prep
Call 954-777-4326 or book online. We confirm a two-hour arrival window and email a short prep list: clear at least 24 inches around the foundation, unlock the attic hatch, and provide garage access. Most inspections are scheduled within 24 to 48 hours, and we offer same-day slots when the calendar allows.
Exterior Foundation Scan
Our licensed technician walks the perimeter with a termite inspection flashlight and soil rodding tool. We probe the soil along the foundation, check expansion joints, and look for mud tubes on stem walls. This step takes 15 to 25 minutes on a typical 2,000-square-foot Pembroke Pines home.
Interior and Attic Inspection
We inspect baseboards, door frames, and window sills with a sounding tool and moisture meter. In the attic, we check roof trusses and rafters for frass, hollow wood, and bubbling paint. A borescope inspection camera lets us see inside wall voids without cutting drywall. This is the longest step, usually 30 to 45 minutes.
Detection and Documentation
If we suspect hidden activity, we run the Termatrac T3i termite detection device over the area. It uses microwave and thermal sensors to confirm live termites behind surfaces. We photograph every finding and log moisture readings so your report includes exact locations, not vague descriptions.
Report and Treatment Plan
You receive the WDO inspection report by email within two hours of the walkthrough. The report includes a graph of the structure, findings, and recommendations. If treatment is needed, we provide a written quote for Termidor, Sentricon, or fumigation the same day. No follow-up calls required.
Tools & methods
Tools and Methods We Use
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians, so the job is done accurately the first time.
Termatrac T3i Termite Detection Device
Uses microwave and thermal sensors to detect live termites behind walls, floors, and ceilings without drilling or cutting. We run it over suspect areas to confirm activity before recommending treatment.
Thermal Imaging Camera
Reveals temperature differences caused by moisture, termite nests, and hidden galleries. We use it to scan walls and ceilings for anomalies that a visual inspection might miss.
Borescope Inspection Camera
A flexible camera that fits through small gaps to inspect inside wall voids, attics, and crawlspaces. It lets us see termite galleries and damage without opening up drywall.
Moisture Meter
Measures moisture content in wood and drywall. High readings indicate conditions that attract termites. We log readings in the report so you can address leaks or drainage issues.
Soil Rodding and Injection Tool
Used to probe soil along the foundation for termite activity and to inject termiticide during treatment. We also use it to check for voids around plumbing penetrations.
Use cases
When to Schedule Termite Inspection
These examples show how the service framework adapts rather than forcing every call through one repair.
Drywood Termites in Attic Trusses
A property manager in 33026 found frass pellets in a rental unit during a turnover. The attic had active drywood termites in two trusses, and the unit was scheduled for new tenants in three weeks. → We mapped the galleries with a borescope camera and treated with localized foam injections and borate wood treatment. The inspection report documented the treatment, and the unit passed a follow-up check. The manager avoided a full tent fumigation.
Real Estate Closing Saved
A buyer in Miramar was two days from closing when the first inspector found termite damage but would not provide a treatment quote. The lender would not fund without a clear WDO report and remediation plan. → We inspected the home in 90 minutes, confirmed old damage with no live activity, and delivered the FDACS report the same afternoon. The lender accepted the report, and the closing happened on time. The buyer saved $3,500 in potential repair credits.
Problems we solve
Termite Problems We Solve in Pembroke Pines
Termites cause more damage in South Florida than hurricanes and floods combined. Here are the problems we see most often and how we fix them.
Mud tubes on foundation walls
We confirm live activity with a Termatrac T3i device, then treat the soil with Termidor or Taurus SC. The barrier kills foragers on contact and prevents re-entry. Most treatments take three to four hours and include a renewable warranty.
Frass pellets near windows
We inspect the area with a borescope camera to map the galleries. Small colonies get localized foam termiticide injections and borate wood treatment. Widespread activity calls for tent fumigation, which we quote the same day.
Termite damage found during real estate inspection
We prioritize real estate termite inspection Pembroke Pines jobs and deliver the report within two hours. If treatment is needed, we provide a written quote and can often schedule work within 48 hours. We coordinate directly with realtors and title companies.
Moisture and wood rot attracting termites
We log moisture readings during the inspection and flag problem areas. Our report recommends repairs, and we can apply termite proofing sealants for slab penetrations. We also install bait stations to monitor for future activity.

Termite Treatment
