TERMITE INSPECTION FALLS SHORT
Our clients bought a property in Carina which had a pre-sale building and pest inspection done by another company.
The client called us for advice as a tradie had found active termites in a window frame.
We have been looking after this property for several years, having installed a barrier and Sentricon stations as it had been a difficult site. It was due for an annual termite inspection and Sentricon renewal but the owner elected not to pay for the inspection or maintain the Sentricon stations.
What was concerning from our perspective, was the pest inspection he got, did not mention any of the termite damage that we have previously found and documented in our reports to the owner over the last couple of years.
Our clients didn’t realise what they were buying as the owner did not disclose anything to them. Also, the seller engaged a pest inspector who did not report obvious termite damage in the garage roof.
It goes to show that not all pest inspection companies are the same. The pest inspector in this case was less than thorough and we cannot understand why he failed to notate obvious termite damage in the garage roof.
What sets us apart is our experience, good training, attention to detail and hi-tech equipment. We have invested time and money to ensure we are state of the art in all our pest inspections.
If you would like a thorough pest inspection for a real estate purchase or preparing your home to list, please call today.
