Termite & Timber Pest Inspection Croydon Hills

Yes. Croydon Hills has many leafy blocks with established gardens, shaded sides of homes and irrigated landscaping that can keep soil and timber damp. Termites are common across Australia and often enter from the ground through concealed paths. Our inspection focuses on subfloor areas, external timber structures and moisture conditions that can make nearby activity more likely to reach the home.

The inspection targets subterranean termites and other timber pests such as wood borers, and it also considers timber decay linked to moisture. We look for active infestation, evidence of past activity, and the conditions that support it. If we find indicators that need specialist treatment, we’ll explain what’s urgent, what can be monitored, and what preventative steps suit the property.

We inspect accessible internal and external areas, with particular attention to the perimeter, subfloor (where accessible), roof void (where safe), wet areas, and any timber structures like decks, pergolas and fences. We also assess landscaping features that can conceal termite entry, such as garden beds against walls, retaining timbers and stored timber piles near the house.

It can. Retaining sleepers and landscaped slopes can hold moisture and create concealed contact points where termites can establish and move unseen. Soil and mulch built up against walls can also bridge visual inspection zones. During the inspection we check retaining timbers, drainage and the perimeter for bridging, termite leads and damp conditions, then outline practical changes to reduce ongoing risk.

We’ll explain what we observed, where it is, and whether it appears active or historical. We’ll also identify the likely entry conditions, such as moisture, timber-to-ground contact or concealed bridging. You’ll receive clear recommendations on urgent actions, monitoring requirements and suitable treatment pathways. If further invasive inspection is needed to confirm extent, we’ll outline what that involves and why.
