What a timber pest inspection involves

If you own a property that has timber stumps, beams, cladding, or decking then it’s important to not only check for termites but also periodically check for dry rot/woodrot and woodborers. If left unchecked, the first you might know you have a problem is when your deck or pergola collapses or when you step through the timber steps.

When we inspect for Timber Pests we check for;

  • Current termite activity
  • Past history of termites
  • Extent of damage caused by termites
  • Dry rot or Woodrot in timbers
  • Conducive conditions like a leaking shower
  • Dampness under and around the house
  • Any damage by wood boring beetles
  • Safety concerns caused by timber pests

We are experts in timber pest detection and advice

  • We use specialised technology like Termatrac to assist us to find activity that the human eye can’t detect.
  • Our inspectors have combined experience of more than 20 years, are licensed, fully insured, good communicators and professional.

We are not only termite specialists but are also building consultants. This is important because we understand buildings and how termites can affect a building structure. We can provide advice on structural integrity issues and the best way forward to correct any damage. Most Pest Managers don’t have a background in building.

The most important thing you can do is to be diligent in managing your property which involves regular inspections.  You don’t need to be afraid you just need to have a regular inspection and stay on top of avoiding a potential large expense. You are probably aware that termite damage is not covered by your home insurance.

If we find termites, we will recommend you to a highly reputable pest management business. This removes any doubt about any perceved interest in selling pest management products.

“Really good communication around service for pest inspection and appointment time. Technician arrived on time, well-presented, friendly and informative.Probably a little expensive but then what price can you put on peace of mind.”

Jenny, Timber Pest Client, Canberra

When I contacted a number of Building and Pest inspection companies for quotes, I was given a price for both. When I contacted Surety I was given a clear understanding of what I would receive during the inspection and after. Therefore I had a good understanding of what was going to take place.

I gave Surety the go ahead and from there everything was carried out in a very timely manner. The reports were very informative and spelled out all details of what would needed to be repaired and fixed. Bruce carried out the Inspections and gave a very detailed verbal report. 

Thank you Surety for your great service.” Phil Grinham, Sth Coast buyer

“Bruce and the team were professional from the start. Appreciated the time, effort and detail that Bruce took to carry out the inspections, also appreciated the ongoing communication. The report was very detailed. Would highly recommend Surety Property!!”
