Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We inspect the perimeter for mud leads, shelter tubes and concealed access at plumbing penetrations, expansion joints and weep holes. These are common termite entry zones and can be hidden by landscaping, paving or stored items.
Where the property has a subfloor and safe access, we check stumps, ant caps, bearers and joists for termite workings, fungal decay and conditions that encourage activity such as poor ventilation and dampness.
We examine roof timbers for signs of termite damage, borer pin-holes, frass and moisture staining around penetrations. Roof spaces often show early indicators that aren’t visible from living areas.
We use moisture detection to identify elevated readings around bathrooms, showers, laundries and kitchens. Persistent moisture can attract termites and contribute to timber decay, especially where water has migrated behind walls or under floors.
We look for borer damage patterns, exit holes and powdery frass in structural timbers, skirtings, door frames and stored timber. This helps separate old, inactive damage from issues that need treatment or monitoring.
We assess conditions that increase termite and timber pest risk, including soil-to-timber contact, garden beds against walls, leaking taps, downpipe discharge and poor drainage. The report highlights the specific items to modify to reduce risk.

Yes. Garden beds built up against external walls, timber edging, stored firewood and fences connected to the house can reduce visibility and create sheltered routes for termites. In Eumemmerring we pay close attention to soil-to-timber contact, concealed slab edges and damp zones near taps and downpipes. The report will list specific changes that lower the property’s termite risk.
We inspect accessible interior rooms, external perimeter areas, the roof space and the subfloor where entry is safe and available. We check for termite evidence, timber pest activity, wood damage and conditions that increase risk, such as moisture and poor drainage. You’ll receive a written report with photos, findings and targeted recommendations for repairs, monitoring or further investigation if needed.
Time varies with the size and layout of the building, access to the roof space and subfloor, and how much stored material blocks inspection zones. As a guide, many standard homes take around 60–90 minutes on site, but complex renovations or restricted access can take longer. We’d rather inspect thoroughly than rush, especially when termite evidence can be subtle.
Yes. Termites can enter through cracks, joints and service penetrations, and extensions can create concealed junctions where inspection is harder. Landscaping, paving and attached structures may also cover slab edges and weep holes, which are important to keep visible. During the inspection we focus on these transition points and moisture-prone areas to assess both activity and risk.
We’ll document the signs, identify the affected areas and explain whether the evidence appears active or historical based on what’s visible at the time. We’ll outline practical next steps, which may include a dedicated termite management plan, further invasive inspection in concealed zones, or urgent treatment by a pest manager. Our report helps you act quickly and prioritise the right response.
