Pest Inspections

Bud Williams is a licensed Structural Pest Inspector. License #64215. 

Joel Williams is a licensed Structural Pest Inpsector.  License #68614

We will do a structural pest inspection at the same time as we do the regular home inspection.  You will receive a  Pest Report with a Washington State ICN (Inspection Control Number).

Effective September 1, 2005 we can recommend B & J Pest Spray for your pest spray applications.   This company is owned by Joel Williams (our son) who has been working as a Structural Pest Inspector for us for the past year. Call him at 460-0812.

Effective January, 2003, a home inspector can no longer identify (WDO) a wood destroying organism or report on conditions conducive to a wood destroying organism (WDO), for example, bath fans not vented to the exterior, broken dry vents, etc.

If we do this our report becomes a de facto Uniform Structural Wood Destroying Organism Inspection Report (whew) AKA a pest report. And it must have all of the information that would be included on a pest report and be done by a licensed structural pest inspector, a PCO or PCC. There are no exceptions. Since 99% of all our inspections have WDO or CONDUCIVE CONDITIONS we will wind up calling for a pest inspection in almost every case in all future inspections.

Therefore,  we will offer a combined Complete Home and Pest Inspection.

Also, it is important to note that the State considers all pest inspections to be final, stand alone inspections. A reinspection for pest purposes will require a full pest inspection and we will have to have access to all areas for the second time.
