Pest Inspection Reports
Find hidden problems and make sure you’re protected
Research shows that as many as 1 in 3 Australian homes will suffer from termites at some point in their life. And the worst part is that termites often go undetected until they’ve already caused significant damage.
Before you commit to purchasing or selling a home, it is important to check for any serious problems that may be hiding in the woodwork. It could save you thousands of dollars in the long run.
