Termite Inspection Services in Northwest Indiana | Armor Inspection

Protecting Homes from Hidden Damage

Termites may be small, but they cause billions of dollars in property damage each year across the United States. By the time you see visible signs of infestation, significant structural damage may have already occurred. That’s why early detection through professional termite inspections is essential.

At Armor Inspection Services, we provide thorough termite inspections across Winfield, Crown Point, Valparaiso, Merrillville, Schererville, Hobart, St. John, and the entire Northwest Indiana region. Whether you’re buying a home or maintaining your current one, our inspections give you peace of mind and help protect your biggest investment.

Why Termite Inspections Matter

Termites and other wood-destroying insects feed on cellulose found in wood and building materials. Once they establish a colony inside a home, they can silently eat away at foundations, floors, walls, and furniture. Homeowners often discover termites only after costly damage has already occurred.

Signs of termite activity include:

• Hollow-sounding wood when tapped

• Mud tubes along walls or foundations

• Discarded wings near windows and doors

• Warped or blistered wood surfaces

• Small holes in drywall or trim

Regular termite inspections are the best way to catch infestations early before they spread.
