Timber Pest Inspection Details

Buying your new home or investment property is one of the most important investments you will make in your lifetime.

How do you know you’re not buying a house full of termites?

Our highly skilled and qualified contractors provide you with a specialised Pre-purchase Timber Pest Inspection service dedicated to new property purchases ensuring you don’t buy termites.

How does this service differ from a standard pest inspection?

Standard pest inspections only check and report on termites alone.

Our Pre-purchase Timber Pest Inspectors go above and beyond. We will:

  • inspect all accessible areas on your property for termites and borers
  • check for moisture in wet areas and the perimeter
  • identify and report on conditions conducive to timber pests

We will ensure that you are armed with the knowledge to purchase your next property with complete confidence.

Pre-purchase Timber Pest Inspections inspect and report on termites, borers and fungal decay according to Australian Standards 43439.3-2010.
