“Why Every Home Needs a Termite Inspection — Even If You Don’t See Damage”
Termites can quietly destroy a home before you ever notice them. Learn why regular termite (WDI) inspections are essential and what Max-Pro Home Inspections looks for to protect your biggest investment.
The Hidden Threat Beneath the Surface
In Texas, termites are more than just pests — they’re homewreckers. Our warm, humid climate creates the perfect breeding ground for subterranean termites that can chew through wood 24/7 without showing visible signs until it’s too late.
By the time you notice soft wood, bubbling paint, or hollow walls, they may have already caused thousands of dollars in damage.
That’s why professional Wood Destroying Insect (WDI) inspections are critical — not just for real estate transactions, but as part of your regular home maintenance plan.
What a WDI Inspection Includes
At Max-Pro Home Inspections, our licensed inspectors perform a detailed visual and structural evaluation that includes:
Checking the foundation, crawl space, attic, and exterior for signs of termite tubes or frass (wood dust).
Inspecting baseboards, window sills, and door frames for soft spots or moisture damage.
Looking for wood-to-soil contact, a major termite entry point.
Evaluating previous treatments or repairs to verify effectiveness.
We then provide a clear, easy-to-read WDI report outlining findings, conducive conditions, and professional recommendations.
Why You Shouldn’t Skip It
If you’re buying a new home a termite inspection gives peace of mind — and can save you from costly surprises later.
Even new homes can develop conditions termites love: high moisture, wood debris near foundations, or unsealed utility openings.
For real estate transactions, lenders often require a WDI Report before closing — and Max-Pro makes that process seamless.
Prevention Is Always Cheaper Than Repair
