Pest Inspection and Report

What a pest inspection involves

Timber pests like termites (sometimes called ‘white ants’) and borers are hard to spot when you are walking through an Open House. Fresh paint can sometimes cover up what’s really going on like woodrot in timbers.

That’s why it is so important to have a Timber Pest inspection (pest inspection) done before you make an offer.

It means you know what you’re really buying and, if any problems are found, negotiate the price down. In fact termite damage rarely means you have to walk away – instead it means you can get a better deal on a property you love.

When we conduct a visual pest inspection along with your building assessment, everything is taken care of for you.

That means we;

  • arrange access with the real estate agent (but never disclose what we find to them, unless you approve us to do so)
  • spend 1-2 hours assessing and documenting the property’s condition including timber pest activity (including photos)
  • take particular care and access all accessible areas, subfloors, roof space, internal and external areas
  • phone you that same day or meet on site to talk through what we’ve found and how we rate the risk of termite activity
  • send you a fully comprehensive, easy to follow report within 24 business hours.

We also do Building Inspections and Reports

Your Pest Inspection is available by itself, as an extension to your Building Report or as part of The Works package which also includes a Compliance Report.

“Thanks to Surety’s Property Report, my entry into the Home Buyer’s World has been saved a heartache, and a lot of money in repairs. I have had 2 reports now and finally found my sweet home. The cost of these reports is the wisest and best money I have spent.”

Debbie Davis, ACT buyer

“Thank you again for everything you’ve done to help us, and for your understanding and patience with the constant rescheduling. And a big thank you to Brendan for taking the time to explain everything to us – I honestly could’ve listened to him all day long!
When I started looking for a property inspection company, I asked everyone I could think of, then went on Google and did some homework. We narrowed it down to three companies, and I called you first because 1.) you had the best reviews and 2.) the sample report was very impressive.

That first conversation I had with you set the standard for the rest of the bunch. You took the time to listen and discuss what we were looking for and what our concerns were, which no one else did. In fact, I only rang one other company and quickly decided I wasn’t even going to waste my time ringing the third as I’d already made up my mind.

In terms of price, while Surety charges more than others, I’m a firm believer in you get what you pay for. The inspection and report were absolutely worth every dollar (and probably more). Brendan picked up on issues we never even thought of, and not only detailed them with photos, but got our builder to agree to fix them with no argument. That was particularly impressive, especially considering the builder. And the report – no one else puts that level of effort into their reports. Surety’s reports should be an industry standard.

Again, thank you so very much for everything, and we wish you and Brendan all the best. Next time we buy (not build, learned that lesson), we’re coming straight to Surety again, absolutely no question about that.”
