Realtor Information

Northwest Termite and Pest Control offers complete pest-control services for Real Estate Professionals in Lake and Sonoma counties.

• Pest Inspections
• Pest Control
• Treatment

In addition to active infestations we also look for conducive conditions that encourage termites to move in.

Our job at Northwest Termite and Pest Control is to inspect your property. We don't do the repairs. This allows us to offer a fair and unbiased appraisal of the damages without a conflict of interest.

On request, we will give an estimate on what a contractor may charge for a specific repair. We always recommend having actual estimates and work done by licensed contractors.
