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

“The service you provide has been very professional, friendly and prompt. We are glad to have had dealings with you and will highly recommend you to others as well as using your company again when needed.

 Bruce was great when I met with him after he finished the inspection on the property we intend to purchase. I found him to be very patient, friendly, professional and most of all very informative.”

Amanda Cook, Sth Coast buyer

“The council search was a really great extra service and something I wasn’t expecting as part of a building inspection. It turned up a few issues but enabled us to make an informed risk based decision, without having to do a full survey and building certificate at much greater expense.”

Andrew, Buyer, South Coast
