FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is a pest inspection still worth it on a newer property?
Yes. Termite pressure depends on the surrounding environment and construction detailing rather than age, and newer homes with landscaping against the walls can be at risk. The report documents condition at the date of purchase.
What if the report finds active termites?
It becomes a negotiating point and a treatment question. You will want a treatment quote and an assessment of damage extent before deciding — often handled during cooling-off or as a contract condition.
Are the pest inspectors listed here verified?
Not automatically. Listings publish official business details, and contact information is checked against the business's own site. A listing being live does not mean it has been verified: activation and verification are separate controls, and the verified label is only applied once the checks for that category are complete.
Do pest inspectors listed here cover all of Sydney CBD?
