Pest Inspections
At Residential, we understand the importance of identifying and addressing the extent of any termite damage in a timely manner. With 1 in every 5 Australian homes falling prey to these wood-destroying insects, it's crucial to take preventative measures and safeguard your investment.
Our comprehensive pest inspections utilize the latest in thermal camera technology, along with the Australian Standard 4349.3-1998 and AS 3660 guidelines, to detect the presence of termites, borers, and wood decaying fungi. In addition to identifying these pests, we provide a maintenance plan to help prevent future infestations and protect the integrity of your property.
Our expert inspectors use a range of tools to conduct a thorough timber pest inspection, including a probe/tapping device to detect termite damage on architraves, skirtings, window reveals, frames, and door jams. We also use a moisture meter to detect areas of high moisture, which termites thrive in, and a thermal imaging camera to scan walls for "hot" or "cold" spots that may indicate the presence of termite nests or wet areas.
