A free termite inspection with every home inspection

Every A-Action inspection includes a termite and wood destroying insect inspection, through Sharp Eye Pest Control, our own pest company, at no extra charge.

What a termite inspection saves you from

Every home inspection we do includes a free termite inspection, through Sharp Eye Pest Control, our own pest company. We check your home for an active infestation of wood destroying insects, and for the conducive conditions that invite them.

It is protection worth having. The average termite treatment runs around $3,000 or more, depending on the size of the infestation and the size of your home. That is before you count the major structural damage these insects can do in a very short amount of time.

Because our inspectors are also licensed technicians in pest and wood destroying insect inspection, we catch it on the same visit, with the findings written into your report.

What wood destroying insects leave behind

These photos come from our own Houston inspections. They are the kind of evidence a termite and wood destroying insect inspection is there to catch.

  • Tyler did a great job on the inspection and Michelle was very helpful with scheduling. This is the second home they did for me and they did a fantastic job both times.

  • Mark was awesome, very Photo, he inspected two houses for me. He worked long hours and then sent us an impeccable report. He also walked with us before he left to show us points of interest in those two homes. I will absolutely hire him again!

  • A-Action is certainly one of the pricer home inspection companies but I was very pleased with Bo's detailed historic home inspection. He was on time and throughly explained his findings both walking us through at the end of the day as well as providing a detailed report. When paying for the inspection I was surprised that A-Action was charging an extra 3% credit card fee when only a cc option was provided but happily they've hired an exceptional customer service rep to work the phones nights and evenings who provided their Zelle info so I could avoid the fee. Overall I'm very pleased.

  • Brendan as our inspector and Michelle who helped me on the phone scheduling my appointment were both so friendly and professional. I felt like we were in good hands with them both. We were interested in a 1970s home and I wanted to make sure we chose a home inspector with experience in older homes, so when I saw all the YouTube videos A-Action has on 1970s-home inspections, I knew they were the right company to go with. Brendan would reply to my simple follow up texts after about the inspection and even provided a vendor list for specialists in the area if we wanted to take a closer look at something, which we did and even their vendor list was great! Highly recommend A-Action!
