Building Inspections
Our building inspections thoroughly evaluate structural integrity, safety hazards, and compliance with Australian Standards. We examine roofs, subfloors, interiors, and exteriors, using thermal imaging and moisture meters. Clients receive detailed digital reports with photos and recommendations within 24 hours.
Pest Inspections
Pest inspections identify termite activity, rodent infestations, and other pest-related risks. We use thermal imaging, termatrac sensors, and physical checks to detect hidden issues. Reports include risk areas and management solutions tailored to property specifics.
Termite Management
Termite management systems include eradication and prevention strategies. We offer chemical barriers, baiting systems, and reticulation solutions. Our licensed builders design programs based on property construction type for long-term protection.
Handover Reports
Handover reports identify construction defects in new properties before occupancy. We assess paintwork, structural elements, and drainage to ensure builder compliance with quality standards. Reports help negotiate repairs before final settlement.
General Pest Control
General pest control addresses spiders, cockroaches, ants, and rodents. We use environmentally friendly treatments tailored to infestation types and property occupancy. Services include safety assessments for homes with pets or children.
