Why get a termite inspection?

Termite inspections are a must for new or existing homeowners. With termite damage not covered by most home insurance you can be up for a large expense if the problem is not dealt with sufficiently. With 1 in 5 homes suffering termite attacks, an annual termite inspection is the most important step in a termite management plan to protect your property.

Our termite inspection is not just your average inspection. We take the time to look for timber damage, document conditions that make your home more susceptible to termite attack and construction faults. We advise of potential maintenance issues that make it easy for termites to enter your home.

If we discover termites we also provide vital information to the homeowner that will allow them to understand the extent of the damage and how termites are accessing the property. Once we identify all potential issues we will determine the potential termite treatment options needed to eliminate the termites and protect the property.

With the information that we gather we provide an in depth management plan for the property, taking into account the termite pressure, building construction and surrounding environment.
