Termite Reports
In Sydney Australia, the risk of termite (often called white-ant) infestation is high in most areas, particularly anywhere near the bush or within 100 metres of gum trees. Make sure you home is regularly inspected by accredited experts such as A1 Pest Control.
Termite Inspections in Sydney NSW Australia:
A home inspection for termites is known in Sydney Australia as a building inspection and includes a pest report and a building report. They are also known as Termite Inspections, Termite Reports, Pre-Purchase Property Inspections, or a PPI. It involves a thorough visual inspection of the sub floor, roof void interior, exterior, and other areas of the property. An average house takes anywhere from one to two hours to complete. Cost varies from $180-$360 depending on the size of the house and access. This is including G.S.T. or Goods and Services Tax (does not apply to persons who live outside Australia)
Most of Sydney is classed as a high risk for termites. For adequate termite protection for most homes in Sydney Australia, we recommend either Termidor termite treatment or Exterra termite baits.
The report consists of eleven pages and digital photos upon request. Please remember a termite inspection report is designed to detect termites at an early stage as to reduce the amount of damage to your house. It does not stop termites. It is strongly recommended a termite inspection report is carried out at least once every twelve months and every three to six months for high risk areas.
Note: There is no household insurance that covers you for termite damage.
A termite building inspection report is designed to:
- Detect old damage and active termites.
- Gives you the element of risk of infestation.
- Gives you tips on reducing the chances of termite infestation.
- Gives us enough information to accurately quote you on a termite treatment and to use the most appropriate method.
- Most importantly, educates you about termites.
- Identifies species of termites.
Equipment which may be used to detect termites include:
Functioning Professional Quality Torch This is a must, and don't let anyone try to inspect your property without one!
Moisture Meter. Moisture meters pick up high moisture content in walls and timbers which could indicate the presence of. Termites bring up moisture from the soil and into the walls and timbers.
Flat Head Screwdriver or Sharp Knife & Tape When termite damaged timber is located and it looks like termites are present, we use a flat head screwdriver or sharp knife and carefully lift up a sliver of timber, identifying the species of termites then seal it back up with tape so as not to disturb the termites.
