Termite (WDI) Inspection in Shady Shores, TX
Shady Shores has some of the oldest wood-frame housing stock in the core tier, cabins converted from a 1920s fishing camp, some still standing today near the lake. That combination of age, wood construction, and lakeside moisture is exactly the setup a WDI inspection is built to check. Septic systems are also common here on the older lots, and I note anything around a septic field or drain line that could be contributing to conducive moisture near the structure.
A WDI inspection (Wood-Destroying Insect inspection) is a separate, focused look at the structure for termites, carpenter ants, and other wood-destroying organisms, reported on the official Texas Form WDIR (also called the NPMA-33). It’s commonly required for VA loans and often requested by lenders or buyers even when it isn’t required, since termite damage isn’t always something a general inspection catches early. I check the foundation perimeter, crawlspace or pier-and-beam substructure, attic framing, exterior wood-to-soil contact points, and any visible damage or conducive conditions, then issue the WDIR report same-day in most cases.
