What affects the cost of Escrow Termite Report
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Section 1 and Section 2 findings in an Escrow Termite Report?
Section 1 findings indicate active infestations or existing damage from wood-destroying organisms that require immediate corrective action. Section 2 findings identify conditions that are conducive to future infestations, such as excessive moisture or wood-to-ground contact, which should be addressed to prevent problems.
Do I have to move out during a termite fumigation?
Yes, for whole-structure fumigation (tenting), occupants and pets must vacate the property for typically two to three nights. Preparations also include watering plants near the structure and bagging all food items.
Can I choose an alternative to fumigation for drywood termites?
While whole-structure fumigation is common for drywood termites in El Cerrito, especially given their nesting habits within timber, localized treatments like orange oil or heat may be viable alternatives depending on the extent and location of the infestation. The inspection report will guide the most effective approach.
How long is an Escrow Termite Report valid?
In California, an Escrow Termite Report is typically valid for 90 days from the date of inspection. This timeframe allows for the completion of any necessary treatments or repairs before the close of escrow.
