Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We check exposed structural and non-structural timbers for termite leads, mudding, workings and hollow-sounding sections, focusing on common entry points such as brick piers, slab edges, expansion joints and service penetrations.
Where the subfloor is accessible, we inspect bearers, joists and ant caps, and assess airflow and dampness that can support termite and fungal decay. This is critical in properties with enclosed or shaded subfloor zones.
We use moisture assessment to identify conditions that attract termites and contribute to timber deterioration, including leaking wet areas, poor drainage and persistent dampness near footings.
We inspect accessible roof spaces for termite activity on framing, evidence of previous treatments, and moisture staining from roof leaks that can make timbers more vulnerable to pests and decay.
We inspect fences, decking, pergola posts, steps, garden sleepers and stored timber, and note any timber-to-ground contact, soil bridging, or mulch height that could allow concealed termite access into the home.
If we find timber damage, we document location, likely cause (where observable) and severity indicators, then outline practical next steps such as further invasive investigation, treatment options, or repairs to reduce ongoing risk.

Our Mooroolbark Station Estate pest inspection focuses on termite evidence, termite risk conditions and timber damage. We inspect accessible internal areas, the perimeter, subfloor (if accessible) and roof void (where safe). We look for mudding, leads, workings, hollow timber, moisture hot spots, and bridging points such as mulch height, timber-to-ground contact, and service penetrations that can allow hidden access.
Yes. In Mooroolbark Station Estate, external timbers can be both a food source and a stepping-stone into the house. We inspect accessible fences, pergola posts, decking, steps, retaining timbers and stored timber, and we note any timber in contact with soil or areas where landscaping creates concealed pathways. These findings are included in the report with practical risk-reduction advice.
Yes. Slab homes can still be affected by termites through concealed entry points such as expansion joints, cracks, weep holes, plumbing penetrations and areas where the ground level or garden beds are too high. We pay close attention to the slab edge and perimeter conditions in Mooroolbark Station Estate, because landscaping and drainage around the home can unintentionally create termite access routes.
Common risk features we see around Mooroolbark Station Estate include timber fencing and landscaping close to external walls, mulch built up above the visible slab edge, and sheltered areas under decks or pergolas where moisture persists. Homes with limited subfloor ventilation (where subfloors exist) or wet-area leaks can also show elevated moisture readings. A targeted inspection helps identify these issues before termites take advantage.
You’ll receive a detailed report that outlines any evidence of termites or timber pests, moisture-related concerns, visible timber damage, and the specific areas inspected. It will also note any access limitations, because hidden zones can’t be conclusively assessed without further investigation. The report includes clear recommendations—such as treatment, monitoring, or maintenance changes—so you can act quickly and reduce ongoing risk.
