Typical termite inspection and treatment price ranges — Franklin, TN and Williamson County market
A standalone termite inspection in Franklin generally costs <strong>$100–$200</strong>, and most companies apply that fee <strong>as a credit toward the treatment</strong> if work is scheduled. The visit is a physical inspection, not a walk-through glance: the inspector enters the crawlspace where one exists, sounds accessible sill plates and band joists, checks the slab perimeter and expansion joints, examines door frames and window sills for mud tubes or discarded wings, and takes moisture readings where wood meets soil or masonry. Homes with a sealed crawlspace, a finished basement, or heavy landscaping against the brick take longer and sit at the upper end of the range. A written wood-destroying insect report for a real estate closing is a separate deliverable and typically runs $100–$225.
Liquid barrier treatment is quoted by <strong>linear feet of foundation</strong>, which is why two homes with identical square footage can differ by several hundred dollars. A compact rectangular slab home in Berry Farms or Ladd Park has far less perimeter than a same-size home with an attached garage, a bump-out, a covered porch, and a rear addition. Expect <strong>$1,200–$2,600</strong> for a typical 2,000–2,500 sq ft Franklin home, and $2,400–$4,000 or more on larger multi-wing houses. Cost also rises when the barrier has to cross hardscape: a driveway, patio, or stamped-concrete walkway sitting against the foundation must be drilled at intervals and patched. Crews handle the trenching, drilling, mixing, and application — the homeowner moves stored items away from interior walls in a garage or unfinished basement and keeps pets inside for the working window.
