Termites do not announce themselves, and with 20% of Melbourne properties estimated to harbour pests, it is imperative to know the home you are buying will not create problems for you. This dedicated termite and pest inspection detects termite infestations and tracks activity without disturbance using advanced thermal imaging and radar detection technology. The inspectors use highly sensitive moisture meters to record changes in moisture levels and identify potential spaces where pests might build nests, alongside an eye for timber telltales to ensure you are not paying for someone else's termite damage. Using tools like the Termatrac T3i Radar Termite Detector, which uses low-energy microwaves to penetrate walls, and the FLIR E5 Infrared Camera, inspectors can locate and map out termite nests efficiently. The inspection identifies the presence of timber pests, live termites, galleries, and past borer damage, while also highlighting conditions that may lead to future pest activity. You will receive a comprehensive report detailing any findings, potential risks, and recommendations on the appropriate steps to take, helping you avoid purchasing an affected property and preventing major stress and financial loss. If major defects are found, your knowledge can help better navigate your purchase decision with the risks made known to you. Protect your investment from the devastating damage termites cause with this thorough assessment.
