How Often Should You Get a Termite Inspection?
We recommend a termite inspection at least once every 12 months. You may need more frequent checks if your property is in a high-risk area, has had termites before, or is surrounded by a lot of timber or moisture-prone ground.
Regular inspections are by far the cheapest way to avoid major structural repairs down the line.
BEYOND TERMITES
Timber Pest Inspections
A timber pest inspection looks at more than just termites. We also check for wood borers, timber decay, and any conditions that could lead to termite activity down the track. This is especially important if you’re buying a property — a pre-purchase timber pest inspection gives you a compliant report you can rely on before signing, so there are no surprises after settlement.
