Termite Inspection Charlotte Home

http://www.homeinspectioncarolina.com

Do you have damaged wood on your house? Do you know what caused it? Is it from moisture, carpenter ants, or wort of all, termites?

Moisture damaged wood appears soggy and "rotten," but there are no galleries. There may be mold or mildew present.

Carpenter ants make smooth, clean galleries, which look almost as if they had been sandpapered.

Termite galleries, by contrast, are usually rough, often with bits of mud and debris in them.

Powderpost beetle damage is easy to miss, however, as very often all that's visible on the outside of a timber are little tiny holes, about the size of a pinhead.

In this video home inspector, Preston Sandlin of Home Inspection Carolina in Charlotte NC shows the difference between termite damage and moisture damage.

Thanks for this video. I'm a property manager dealing with moisture, mold and termites. It's good to know these differences!
