Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a termite inspection take?
Most residential inspections take 1โ2 hours depending on the size of the property. Ruben will provide a detailed written report following the inspection.
How often should I get a termite inspection?
Australian standards recommend annual inspections. In high-risk areas or properties with previous termite activity, every 6 months may be advisable.
Does home insurance cover termite damage?
In most cases, standard home insurance does not cover termite damage as it's considered a preventable event. Regular inspections and treatments are your best protection.
What are the signs of termites?
Common signs include hollow-sounding timber, mud tubes on walls or foundations, discarded wings near windows, tight-fitting doors or windows, and blistering or buckling paint on walls.
