Important Information about Termite Infestation

Pesky Termites

There are countless cases of termite damage and infestation found throughout Florida and across the US every single day. Most cases include people afraid of termites causing damage to their homes and invading their private living space, both of which are not nice experiences to go through.

A popular myth is that termites only attack a certain type of houses, such as only wood-sided homes, but the truth is that termites can and will attack any property that is in their path. Termites have been the cause of millions of dollars’ worth in structural damage each year. Having a concrete home or a home built out of brick does not mean that it is safe from termite attacks.

Did you know that termites only need an eighth of an inch to get into a concrete slab home; they are able to sneak in through any type of hole in the foundation. These tiny cracks can come from various foundation settlement issues or cracks in the perimeter expansion joints.

Whether you already own, or considering buying, it is essential to have a home inspection carried out on your property to determine if termites are in it. In any case, you should be asking the home inspection company for specialist services, which should include a termite inspection.

Termites can pose a serious threat if left untreated, and cause considerable damage, but if caught at the right time their presence can be eradicated. If you are in the middle of going through the home buying process or are likely to be in the near future, make sure that you hire the professional services of a trusted home inspection company.

Offering high quality home inspection services is what a company like CFBInspect do on a daily basis, for all your home inspection needs and requirements make sure that you contact them today to see how their services could help you.
