Pest and Termite Inspection
Estimated arrival time: Within 24 hours
Description
A dedicated pest and termite inspection is a wise decision that can potentially save you thousands of dollars in structural repair bills. Conducted by David, a licenced pest inspector with extensive building industry experience, this service thoroughly assesses your Oakleigh or City of Monash property for the existence of, or conditions conducive to, pest, termite, and borer activity. During the inspection, David meticulously searches for telltale signs of infestation. This includes testing for hollow-sounding wooden structures, locating mud tubes used as travel tunnels, and identifying bubbling or peeling wall paint that indicates internal damage. He also looks for small entry holes, moisture and water damage that attracts termites, buckling walls or ceilings caused by weakened foundations, maze-like designs eaten into timber, and termite droppings that resemble piles of sawdust or coffee grounds. The inspection also considers the appearance of termite swarms, which typically emerge during spring. Following the assessment, you will receive a comprehensive digital report in PDF format within 24 hours. This detailed document includes high-resolution colour photographs of any identified pest activity or risk factors. David is also available after you receive the report to answer your questions, ensuring you make an informed decision about the property's structural viability and pest risks.
