Westlake is compact, close to the river and surrounded by industry, and much of its housing has been standing for decades. That means raised foundations, older framing and settled slabs, all of which give termites and roaches an easier time than newer construction. River humidity keeps the moisture up year round. We inspect with the age and setting of the building in mind.
Decades-old wood, ground contact and river humidity are ideal for subterranean termites, Formosans included. We inspect sills, piers and additions, treat where activity or risk exists, and keep the property monitored between visits.
Damp crawl spaces draw termites, roaches and mildew alike. We look at drainage, ventilation and ground contact rather than only treating the pests, and tell you which conditions are worth correcting.
Older homes and small commercial buildings have plenty of gaps around plumbing, vents and doors. We seal what we can, treat harborage directly, and monitor so the same problem does not return each season.
