Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We inspect the perimeter, weep holes, slab edges, subfloor piers and service penetrations for mudding, shelter tubes and other signs termites use to travel unnoticed into Hampton East homes.
We check bearers, joists and ant capping (if present), plus look for damp earth, poor ventilation and stored items that make it harder to spot termites and timber decay early.
Bathrooms, laundries, kitchens and hot water service areas are assessed for moisture conditions that attract termites and contribute to fungal decay. We note the risk and where further moisture investigation may be needed.
We look for signs of timber pest activity, wood damage and staining in roof timbers. Roof spaces can reveal long-term issues that aren’t visible at floor level.
Decking, pergolas, fences, retaining sleepers and steps are checked for borer holes, decay and termite damage. These elements often act as the first point of attack before pests move toward the main structure.
Your report separates active evidence from historical damage and identifies conditions that increase risk, such as bridging, soil contact and damp zones—so you can prioritise repairs and prevention properly.

Yes. Brick veneer doesn’t stop termites—termites target timber inside the walls, under floors and in roof framing. In Hampton East, risk often comes from concealed entry at slab edges, service penetrations, garden beds against walls and moisture around wet areas. A termite inspection focuses on finding active signs and the conditions that make access easier, not just the visible construction type.
Our inspection focuses on termites and other timber pests that damage building materials, including signs consistent with wood borers and conditions that support fungal decay. We assess accessible areas inside, outside, roof voids and subfloors (where safe) for evidence of activity, wood damage and moisture risk. You’ll get clear notes on what was found, what’s suspected and what to do next.
Most inspections take around 60–90 minutes, depending on the size of the property, accessibility of the subfloor and roof void, and how much external timber is present. In Hampton East, properties with older subfloors, added extensions or dense garden coverage can take longer because we spend extra time checking concealed edges and moisture-prone zones.
They can be. Renovations often change drainage, paving levels and how timber meets the ground, and they can cover up previous termite management systems or access points. In Hampton East, we regularly see bridging from raised garden beds, new paths, or cladding that reduces visibility of slab edges and weep holes. The inspection highlights these risk areas and how to correct them.
Act quickly. If activity is suspected or confirmed, we’ll recommend the next step, which may include a qualified termite treatment provider and addressing the conditions that allowed access (moisture, bridging, timber-to-soil contact). If damage is present, you may also need a builder to assess structural impact. Keeping the area undisturbed until treatment helps avoid spreading termites.
