Troy VA Pest Inspection FAQ

What insects are included in the Troy inspection?

We inspect for all major wood-destroying insects: carpenter ants, carpenter bees, termites, and powderpost beetles.

Is Form NPMA-33 required for my loan?

Yes, if you are applying for a VA or FHA loan, HUD requires the NPMA-33 Wood Destroying Insect Inspection Report. We specialize in providing these compliant reports.

How much time should I allow for the inspector?

For most homes in Troy, the inspection takes about 60 minutes. Homes with multiple outbuildings or large crawlspaces may take slightly longer.

What if the inspector finds termites or other activity?

If activity is found, we document it clearly on the report. We can then provide recommendations for treatment options to ensure the property is protected and the loan requirements are met.

Can you inspect the attic if it’s small?

We will inspect any area that is "readily accessible." If an attic or crawlspace entry is obstructed or too narrow for safe entry, we will note that area as uninspected per the standard guidelines.

Are your Troy inspectors certified?

Absolutely. All of our technicians are fully licensed and certified through the State of Michigan and have extensive training in wood-destroying insect identification.
