Add-ons
Book them with the inspection, not after it.
Every add-on below is scheduled for the same morning as the main inspection and reported alongside it. One appointment, one report, one invoice.
| Add-on | What it covers | When it is worth it |
|---|---|---|
| WDI / Termite | Wood-destroying insect inspection and report, performed under a separate Texas WDI (termite) license. | Almost always smart in North Texas. Required on many VA loans. |
| Septic | Tank, distribution box, and drain-field assessment, with pump operation and function checks. | Rural and acreage properties on a septic system rather than city sewer. |
| Pool & spa | Equipment, plumbing, electrical bonding, decking, and safety barriers. | Any property with a pool. Bonding issues are common and expensive. |
| 4-Point Insurance | Focused review of roof, electrical, HVAC, and plumbing for insurability. | Older homes where an insurer requires it before binding coverage. |
