Utah Termite Inspection Specialists, LLC is the only company in the State of Utah which specializes exclusively in Termite and Wood-Destroying Insect inspections for real estate transactions. Because we specialize in Termite and WDI Inspections, we are fast, affordable and expert at what we do. Since we do not treat for termites, we have no added incentive to recommend treatment if treatment is not absolutely necessary; and we always offer independent, unbiased recommendations based upon our findings.
Occasionally, a Realtor or homeowner will call upon a Home Inspector to perform a Termite Inspection. Although many Home Inspectors are very good at what they do, they are nonetheless generalists, inspecting a dozen or more major home systems and elements. It simply is not possible for any Home Inspector who is responsible for inspecting Electrical, Plumbing, and HVAC systems, along with inspecting for Structural, Roofing, Flooring, asbestos or Radon problems, to have the experience, training and expertise which we have obtained through years of specializing in inspecting for and identifying evidence of wood-destroying insect infestation.
In other cases, a Realtor or a homeowner will call upon a licensed Pest Control Company, or Exterminator, to provide a Termite Inspection. Although most Pest Control Operators are indeed experts in identifying evidence of infestation, it is impossible to ignore the inherent conflict of interest created when they are both inspecting for and offering treatment for WDI infestation. Unfortunately, there are too many cases where a Pest Control Company recommends a termite treatment when a treatment is not really necessary. This can create major problems for Realtors and a costly, unnecessary expense for the homeowner.
A need in the industry for expert, affordable and unbiased Termite and Wood-Destroying Insect inspections was the genesis of our company. We are proud to offer affordable, unbiased, same-day inspections for VA Loans and other real estate transactions across the Utah. Call to schedule your inspection today!
