Professional Termite Inspections in Sydney
Protect your property investment with comprehensive termite inspections. Our certified inspectors use thermal imaging and moisture meters to detect hidden termite activity. Detailed reports complying with Australian Standards.
Why Termite Inspections Are Critical for Sydney Homes
Termites cause over $1 billion in damage across Australia annually. Sydney’s climate provides ideal conditions for subterranean termites to thrive, making regular termite inspections essential for property protection. Pest Labs provides comprehensive termite inspections complying with Australian Standard AS3660.
Our certified termite inspectors examine all accessible areas of your property, including subfloor spaces, roof voids, interior rooms, exterior perimeters, and surrounding gardens. We use advanced detection technology, including thermal imaging cameras, moisture meters, and acoustic devices, to identify hidden termite activity.
What Our Professional Termite Inspection Includes
A professional termite inspection involves more than visual examination. Our inspectors look for signs of termite activity, including mud tubes, damaged timber, termite droppings, and moisture problems that attract termites. We tap timbers, probe suspect areas, and use technology to detect termites behind walls and in concealed spaces.
Following inspection, you receive a detailed written report documenting our findings, identifying termite species if activity is detected, assessing risk factors, and providing treatment recommendations. Our reports meet requirements for pre-purchase inspections, real estate transactions, and insurance claims.
Sydney’s most thorough termite inspections are backed by certified specialists and advanced detection technology. Pest Labs understands that finding termites early prevents extensive damage and costly repairs. Our comprehensive inspections leave no area unchecked.
We inspect every accessible part of your property methodically, documenting conditions and identifying termite risks. Our thermal imaging reveals temperature variations indicating termite activity behind walls. Moisture meters detect damp areas attracting termites. Acoustic devices hear termites feeding inside timber.
Annual termite inspections are essential for Sydney properties, particularly those with timber construction, in bushland settings, or near tree stumps and landscape timbers. We provide inspection reports required for property sales, refinancing, and insurance purposes, with same-day report delivery available.

FAQs
Termite Inspection Services in Sydney
How much does a termite inspection cost in Sydney?
Professional termite inspections for standard Sydney homes cost $250-$450, depending on property size and accessibility. Larger properties or those requiring extensive crawling in difficult subfloor areas may cost more. Pre-purchase inspections meeting Australian Standards range $300-$500. We provide fixed-price quotes based on your property details with no hidden fees.
How long does a termite inspection take?
Thorough termite inspections take 1.5-3 hours, depending on property size and construction type. We examine all accessible areas inside and outside, use detection technology, and document findings with photos. Large or complex properties may require longer. We don’t rush inspections – thoroughness is essential for detecting hidden termite activity.
How often should I have termite inspections?
Australian Standards recommend annual termite inspections for all properties. High-risk properties in bushland areas, with previous termite history, or with timber construction, should be inspected every 6 months. Regular inspections detect termites early before extensive damage occurs, protecting your investment and minimizing treatment costs.
What's included in a termite inspection report?
Our comprehensive reports include detailed descriptions of areas inspected, identification of any termite activity found, photos documenting conditions, assessment of termite damage severity, evaluation of conditions conducive to termites, risk rating for future termite problems, and treatment recommendations. Reports comply with Australian Standard AS3660 requirements for property transactions.
Can you inspect difficult-to-access areas?
Yes. Our inspectors access subfloor crawl spaces, roof voids, and other difficult areas as safely as possible. Some areas may be inaccessible due to safety concerns or physical obstructions – these limitations are documented in reports. We use technology like thermal imaging to scan inaccessible areas where direct visual inspection isn’t possible.
