A complete, signed treatment document clarifies responsibilities, records infestation status, and sets remediation and warranty terms. Clear documentation reduces disputes, supports insurance or escrow needs, and creates an auditable record whether completed on paper or through compliant electronic signature workflows.
Typical users include parties who request, perform, or rely on termite treatments for property condition and liability management.
Contractors, insurers, and municipal inspectors also use these documents; accuracy and proper signatures affect enforceability and claims processing.
Document visual and structural observations, evidence of termite activity, photographs, and diagnostic notes. This section supports treatment selection, establishes pre-treatment condition, and is used for disclosures or insurance claims.
Specify treatment type, areas to be treated, materials applied, application rates, and schedule. Clear scope prevents disputes and sets customer expectations for access, preparation, and follow-up visits.
Provide reentry times, personal protective equipment guidance, ventilation needs, and steps to secure pets and food. State any restrictions or temporary evacuation recommendations after fumigation or heavy pesticide application.
List total cost, unit line items, deposit amount, accepted payment methods, and late fee policy. Note whether additional charges apply for structural repairs or extended treatments discovered after initial inspection.
Describe coverage period, conditions triggering retreatment at no cost, limitations, exclusions for prior damage, and steps to report recurrence. Clarify transferability and any prorated remedies.
Provide signer names, titles, printed names, signature lines, and dates for contractor and property owner. Include authorization language for electronic signatures where allowed by state law.
