Termite/WDO Inspection
A wood-destroying-organism inspection catches termite activity, dry rot, and related damage that's often invisible until it's structural — common for real estate transactions but useful anytime. NorTech connects you with an inspector for a full structural inspection and written findings report.

Termite and WDO inspections across the Bay Area
Wood-destroying organisms — termites, wood-boring beetles, dry rot fungus — thrive in the Bay Area's coastal humidity and older housing stock, and damage often isn't visible until it's already structural. NorTech connects you with an inspector who checks accessible structural wood, foundation areas, and moisture-prone zones, then delivers a written findings report with treatment recommendations if activity is found.
Why real estate transactions require this
Lenders and title companies commonly require a WDO report before closing because termite and dry rot damage directly affects a structure's value and safety — it's one of the few inspection types with a standardized, widely recognized format for exactly this reason.
Signs worth checking between inspections
Discarded termite wings near windows, hollow-sounding wood when tapped, or small piles of what looks like sawdust near baseboards are all early signs worth a look even outside a real estate transaction. Catching activity early keeps a treatable problem from becoming a structural one.
When to book termite/wdo inspection
Done by a licensed contractor
This work is booked only with an independent contractor who holds the California license it requires, and whose license NorTech has checked against the state record. It is never handed to someone who is still working toward one.
