At Hunter Valley Pest & Building Inspections, we offer regular visual termite inspections to homeowners in Newcastle and the surrounding areas. Termites are one of the most destructive pests in Australia, causing significant damage to homes if left undetected. Regular inspections are the best defence to safeguard your property from these silent destroyers.
Why Regular Termite Inspections are Essential
Termites often remain hidden in walls, floors, and other hard-to-reach areas, making them difficult to spot until the damage is extensive. Booking in regular inspections by an experienced inspector ensures that any early signs of termite activity are caught before they lead to costly repairs. Australian Standards recommend that homes be inspected for termites at least once a year to maintain the structural integrity of your property.
What Our Termite Inspections Involve
- Thorough Visual Inspection: We inspect all accessible areas of your home, including the interior, exterior, roof voids, subfloors, and surrounding yard. Our detailed inspections help identify any signs of termites, including mud tubes, hollow-sounding wood, and other indicators of activity.
- Advanced Tools: Although our inspections are primarily visual, we use advanced equipment such as thermal imaging and moisture meters to detect hidden termites that may not be visible to the naked eye. These tools help us uncover any concealed termite activity, particularly in areas prone to moisture, which attracts termites.
- Detailed Reporting: After the inspection, you’ll receive a comprehensive report outlining any signs of termites or areas of concern. The report is written in clear, easy-to-understand language and includes colour photographs for reference. If termites are found, we will provide recommendations for treatment and ongoing prevention.
