Termite inspections in Sydney
A separate inspection, including pre-purchase enquiries, rather than termite treatment or a general pest spray.
$330 inc. GST
Scope and booking notes
Included areas
- Observations in safely accessible agreed areas, stated inspection limitations and a written photo report. Existing materials mention thermal/moisture tools; equipment use and report delivery timing are confirmed for the job.
What is not included
- Not a termite-free guarantee, building report, legal advice or purchase recommendation. Hidden/unsafe/inaccessible areas are recorded as limitations, not assumed clear. Termite treatment is not included in the inspection starting price.
Preparation, follow-up and booking
Preparation and safe access
- Provide past inspection/treatment reports and access constraints. Arrange authorised safe access; do not disturb suspected termite activity or open unsafe roof/subfloor areas. Take a photo only from a safe position.
- Tell the technician about children, pets, fish tanks, food-preparation areas and access concerns. Preparation, cleaning and re-entry depend on the product label and the agreed treatment; no universal safe re-entry time is promised.
Follow-up and warranty
- Any inspection review or treatment follow-up is agreed separately; no universal date or extra visit is included automatically.
- Warranty duration and conditions need confirmation in the written service scope. Do not apply the general pest warranty to this service automatically.
Enquiry and booking confirmation
- Text or call with your suburb, property type and pest concern; add a photo where safe. An optional online enquiry is also available on /connect when enabled.
- We agree the final GST-inclusive price, treatment scope and appointment time with you before booking.
Termite treatment
- Treatment is assessed and quoted separately after the pest, property and access are understood. The inspection price is not a treatment price.
- Site-specific quote; no confirmed universal starting price.
- Only the treatment system, affected areas, monitoring and documentation written in the agreed quote. The exact method needs technician confirmation; no universal product or system is prescribed in this knowledge.
- Termite reticulation system: Existing termite reticulation systems are replenished through injection points connected to buried pipework. The layout, condition and treatment requirements need site assessment; inspection and replenishment are separate services. The illustration is a schematic, not a site plan.
- No published fixed treatment price or automatic timber/building repair, permanent protection, monitoring duration or unlimited repeat visits.
Pre-purchase inspections
A pre-purchase inspection is usually the same core service as a routine inspection, but the context changes what matters. If you are buying, the findings feed into a decision with a deadline, so access and report timing need to be confirmed before you rely on them.
Include your access contact in the enquiry — often the selling agent or the vendor — along with any deadline or cooling-off date. If the property is tenanted or vacant, access arrangements differ and it helps to sort them out early rather than on the day.
Be cautious about treating any inspection as a complete picture of a property's termite risk. Where a property has been extended, renovated, re-rendered or landscaped, some elements of any previous protection may no longer be visible or may have been disturbed. Ask specifically about those areas if they apply to the property you are considering.
