Wood Destroying Organism (WDO) Inspections
Protecting Your Property from the Ground Up
At MountainWest Inspectors, we understand that a home is more than just a structure—it's an investment, a safe haven, and often one of the largest purchases an individual will make. One of the most serious and often overlooked threats to that investment is wood destroying organisms (WDOs), such as termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles, and fungal decay.
The Importance of WDO Inspections
Wood destroying organisms can compromise the structural integrity of a home—often silently and invisibly. By the time visible damage appears, repair costs can be extensive. WDO inspections are critical for:
- Early Detection: Catching infestations or conducive conditions before they escalate into major damage.
- Real Estate Transactions: Required by lenders or buyers to ensure the property is structurally sound and free of infestations.
- Long-Term Maintenance: Preventing future problems by identifying moisture issues, wood-to-soil contact, and other risk factors.
- Peace of Mind: Knowing your home is free from hidden threats provides confidence and security.
