A dedicated Timber Pest Inspection prior to purchasing your new home or investment property just makes good sense. At InSpec Building and Pest Inspections, we highly recommend this service, as well as ongoing annual inspections for your property. There is a common myth that the climate here in Orange, Bathurst, Blayney, and the surrounding areas of the Central West is too cold for termites. This is simply untrue; termites are highly prevalent in our local area, making it bad advice to skip a pest inspection based on the weather. Our comprehensive inspection and subsequent report are strictly confined to reporting on the discovery, or non-discovery, of active infestations and damage caused by termites, borers of seasoned timber, and wood decay fungi (rot) present at the date and time of the inspection. Termites that remain undetected in your home or investment property can silently destroy the structural integrity of the building, which may ultimately cost thousands of dollars in extensive rebuilds or repairs. Carried out in accordance with Australian Standards and backed by over 35 years of local building industry experience, our reports provide transparent, professional insights. InSpec strongly recommends annual inspections to ensure the ongoing safety of your family and tenants, as major damage and infestations can occur even over a short 12-month period.
