Each year, wood-boring insects infest more than 500,000 homes in Massachusetts alone. As one of your most valuable financial investments, your home deserves vigilant protection against these destructive pests. Left untreated, wood-boring insects can cause extensive damage to structural elements and cherished wooden belongings.
Identifying an infestation is just the first step—taking prompt and effective action is essential to prevent further harm. That’s why a Wood-Boring Insect (WBI) inspection is a vital component of the home inspection process for many homeowners.
If your home inspection included a WBI assessment, please refer to page 4 of your report to review the findings. Should any signs of insect activity be noted, it’s highly recommended that you contact a licensed exterminator promptly to address the issue. Additionally, a qualified carpenter should inspect the affected areas to assess the extent of the damage, estimate repair costs, and check for any hidden issues behind finished walls.

Hi Dave,
I am writing to let you know how my home inspection went today in Tyngsboro. The inspection went well and we look forward in moving forward in purchasing our new home. What I am really writing about is to tell you how pleased I was with your work. You were very thorough and took your time on the inspection. As first time home buyers, you took some extra time to explain things that you didn't have to and it really was invaluable!
I have several friends and family members that are also getting ready to purchase homes, and I look forward to sharing my experience with your company with them. I will certainly be recommending Massachusetts Home Inspections and will speak highly of you and also share how pleased I was with the output of the inspection.
Best regards,
Crystal F.
