Thorough Inspections for Peoria Buyers, Sellers and Owners

Buying, selling, refinancing, or just curious about the shape your home is in? A professional inspection gives you a straight answer.

For anyone closing a sale, a real estate termite inspection in Peoria keeps the paperwork moving and the surprises few.
City Wide is a locally owned and operated termite inspection company in Peoria and across Maricopa County, with more than 40 years behind us. Our inspectors are licensed by the Arizona Department of Agriculture and know where desert termites like to hide. Whether you need a WDIIR inspection in Peoria or a routine check, you get a thorough look, a clear written report and honest advice, never a hard sell.

  • Why It Matters

What Peoria Homeowners Should Know About Termites

University of Arizona Extension calls the desert subterranean termite (Heterotermes aureus) the most destructive termite in the state, and it is the most common subterranean species in the Sonoran desert below 4,000 feet. Warm soil keeps colonies busy for much of the year, and homeowner’s policies usually exclude termite damage.
Lenders on VA and FHA loans, and many Arizona purchase contracts, call for a WDIIR. Even when nobody requires one, the report helps buyers avoid inheriting hidden damage and gives sellers a documented, confident listing. Catching activity early also keeps repairs smaller and easier to plan.

Local Termite Know-How for Peoria Homes

The median year built for Peoria housing is 1999, and about 52.6 percent of its housing units (41,601 of 79,085) went up before 2000, based on the ACS 2020 to 2024 5-year estimates. Single-family detached homes make up about 74.3 percent of the total (58,736 of 79,085), so a typical inspection here means walking a full foundation, stem walls and stucco lines.
From Vistancia near Loop 303 to the homes out toward Lake Pleasant, we know a termite inspection takes more than a glance. UA Extension says structures infested with the desert subterranean termite can be identified by drop tubes from the ceiling, and that winged ants are often confused with termite swarmers. Anyone living near Lake Pleasant Regional Park, home to a Bald Eagle Program and pollinator and butterfly monitoring, may appreciate that we offer kid and pet friendly treatment options if activity turns up.

  • Our Method

How Our Inspection Works

Step 1
Exterior Assessment
Outside, we walk the full perimeter and check weep screeds at the stucco line, stem walls, the foundation, control joints, pipe entries and any wood touching soil.
Step 2
Interior Inspection
Inside, we check every room we can reach, giving extra attention to the garage, baths, kitchen, closets and any spot where pipes enter the walls. We watch for mud tubes, damaged wood and signs of past or current infestation.
Step 3
Attic and Crawl Space
Where we can get in, we look through attic framing and crawl spaces for drywood termite activity and for the moisture that draws subterranean termites.
Step 4
Detailed Written Report
Afterward you get a written report that lays out what we found, including active termites, earlier damage and any conditions that could invite them later.
Step 5
Treatment Recommendations
If we find evidence, we explain your treatment options plainly. If your home checks out clean, we say so and leave it at that.

Inspection Types for Every Situation

Wood Destroying Insect Inspection Report
WDIIR
  • Real Estate
The standard report for Arizona real estate transactions, also called a termite clearance letter. Our wood destroying insect inspection in Peoria records whether termites, carpenter ants or wood-boring beetles are present. VA and FHA lenders usually ask for it, and many purchase contracts do too.

Pre-Purchase Inspection
  • Home Buyers
A deeper look for buyers who want to understand termite risk before closing. It goes past the standard WDIIR, noting conditions that could invite activity later and ways to prevent it.

Annual Maintenance Inspection
  • Homeowners
A routine check for current owners who want to catch activity early. We suggest one every year for Arizona homes, especially those over 10 years old, near desert washes or with mature landscaping.

Realtors and Home Inspectors, Let Us Handle the WDIIR

Much of our WDIIR work comes through partners instead of homeowners. Home inspection firms and real estate agents call City Wide when they want a licensed termite inspector in Peoria to cover that part of a transaction while they handle the rest.

Where can I get a termite inspection in Peoria, AZ?
Call City Wide at (602) 944-0099, Monday to Saturday, 8 to 5. We are based in Phoenix and serve 25+ cities across Maricopa County, including Peoria. Same-day service is available, there is no contract for residential service, and our technicians and office staff are licensed by the Arizona Department of Agriculture.
Age alone does not decide it, but it is a good reason to schedule one. About 52.6 percent of Peoria housing units (41,601 of 79,085) were built before 2000, and the median year built is 1999 (ACS 2020 to 2024 5-year estimates). Older homes have had more years for wood, moisture and soil contact to line up, so a yearly check makes sense.
UA Extension says structures infested with the desert subterranean termite can be identified by drop tubes from the ceiling. It also notes that winged ants are often confused with termite swarmers, so look closely before assuming. Mud tubes on a foundation, soft wood around frames or shed wings are also good reasons to call (602) 944-0099.
Yes. We serve 25+ cities across Maricopa County, and that includes homes in Peoria out toward Lake Pleasant and in communities like Vistancia. Call (602) 944-0099 to set a time, and ask about same-day service. Our technicians are licensed by the Arizona Department of Agriculture, Pest Management Division, under Arizona license #2317.
It is a careful visual check of your home for wood destroying insects and the conditions that attract them. Our inspector looks at the foundation, stem walls, weep screeds, plumbing penetrations, garage, closets, and the attic and crawl spaces where reachable, watching for mud tubes, damaged wood and signs of past or current activity. You then receive a written report.
A licensed inspector walks the exterior, then the interior, then the attic and crawl spaces if reachable, and you receive a written report with findings and recommendations. Call a professional when buying, selling or refinancing, when you spot mud tubes, soft wood or swarmers, or if it has been over a year since your last check.
