Mud tubes on the foundation or frass near window sills both mean the same thing — termites are actively feeding, and every week matters. Because termite damage typically isn't covered by standard homeowners insurance, catching it early is the only real safeguard against a costly repair bill.


Our inspectors hold state wood-destroying organism (WDO) licensing and produce documentation accepted for real estate transactions.
Swarms or mud tubes get priority scheduling — we know active subterranean colonies cause damage every day they go untreated.
Treatment quotes are based on measured foundation perimeter and infestation type, given to you in writing before work begins.
Our equipment includes borate wood treatments, termiticide injection rods, and monitoring stations for long-term colony elimination. Beyond the treatment itself, you'll get a documented moisture assessment, since damp foundation zones are usually the first areas termites return to.
Non-repellent liquid termiticide applied along the foundation perimeter, engineered to eliminate the colony through contact transfer.
Monitoring stations placed at intervals around the structure, checked on a schedule to intercept colonies before they reach the building.
Localized injection and, when needed, structural fumigation for drywood termites living inside wood members rather than the soil.
Licensed inspection documentation formatted to lender and closing requirements, delivered within the timeline your transaction needs.
Beyond treatment, we assess joist, sill plate, and subfloor damage so you know the full scope before repairs begin.
We treat soil and foundation footings pre-pour so new builds start with a termite barrier already in place. We cross-check readings with a second meter on any borderline case, since termite treatment decisions shouldn't rest on a single instrument.

Describe the signs and their location; that determines whether we're dispatching for subterranean or drywood treatment.
We show up equipped to inspect thoroughly, not just visually scan — moisture readings catch what the eye misses.
The full foundation perimeter and accessible wood members are inspected, with findings documented in a written report.
Every treatment includes a documented warranty term and, where applicable, a station-check schedule going forward.
Found mud tubes behind our water heater during a routine check. Inspector caught it before it reached the framing.
Needed a WDO report fast for a closing deadline. Report was in my inbox the same day as the inspection.
Bait stations have been checked every quarter for two years now, exactly as scheduled. No surprises.
They found drywood termites in a rafter we never would have checked. Saved us from a much bigger repair later.
Refinancing required a current WDO report and ours had expired. They got an inspector out within two days to meet the lender deadline.

Licensed inspectors cover Sanford and the wider Sanford, ME region, with scheduling priority given to properties showing active swarms, mud tubes, or real estate transaction deadlines. Older Sanford neighborhoods with mature tree cover tend to carry higher subterranean termite pressure, which shapes how we prioritize inspection requests.

Subterranean colonies need ground moisture and build visible mud tubes, while drywood colonies nest directly inside dry wood members.
Cost varies by foundation size and whether liquid barrier or bait stations are used; we quote in writing after seeing the property.
A wood-destroying organism report is commonly required for financing; we issue licensed reports formatted for that purpose.
Non-repellent liquid barriers typically carry a multi-year warranty period, with annual re-inspection recommended.
DIY treatments often scatter the colony instead of eliminating it, which complicates professional treatment down the line.
A swarm event signals the colony has matured enough to reproduce, which is often the first visible sign homeowners notice. We recommend a yearly check-in after initial treatment, since soil grading and mulch buildup around a foundation can change year to year.
Whether it's mud tubes, swarmers, or a closing deadline, we can get an inspector out fast.
