Capstone Inspections, LLC offers termite inspections / Pest Inspections.  It is recommended that you hire are licensed termite inspector / pest inspection before purchasing real estate or buying a home. Termite damage far exceeds damage caused to homes by tornadoes, hurricanes and flooding and is rarely covered by homeowner insurance policies. Unlicensed home inspectors often are not trained to recognize existing or potential termite damage. Early detection can save homeowners substantial repair costs.

As fully licensed  inspectors we provide potential home buyers with accurate termite inspection reports. These reports outline both any existing termite damage or pest infestations and areas that liable to incur future infestations. Areas of concern include open access points in the foundation or lower levels of a home and significant moisture deposits. Professional pest control companies can assist in correcting areas that pose a threat of infestation.

The results of these Termite inspection reports should not necessarily deter a home buyer from purchasing the home in question. However, it provides needed information to make a better decision.  Negotiations may be entered into between buyers and sellers to arrange for further prevention and repairs to be made by the seller prior to sale. Sellers may also negotiate on price if termite damage is found.
