Timber Pest Inspection and Report Perth
Buying real estate is a huge investment. That's why professional pre-purchase inspections are essential to ensure your investment is protected. Without conducting the appropriate building or timber pest inspections before your purchase, you risk discovering that your home has a termite infestation, which could be very expensive to fix.
By getting a local professional inspector to conduct a timber pest inspection in Perth, you can purchase the property with full knowledge of the condition and get pest control to rectify any issues (or even negotiate for a better price).
Scope Of Pest Inspection And Report According To Australian Standards
In the case of Pre-purchase Timber Pest Inspections or Timber Pest Inspections in accordance
with the Australian Standard AS 4349.3-2010, the Inspection and resulting Report will be
confined to reporting on the discovery, or non-discovery, of infestation and/or damage caused
by subterranean and damp wood termites (white ants), borers of seasoned timber and wood
decay fungi (rot), present on the date and time of the Inspection.
In the case of all Termite Inspections in accord with the Australian Standard
AS 3660.2-2000, the Inspection and resulting Report will be confined to reporting on the discovery, or non-discovery, of infestation and/or damage caused by subterranean and damp wood termites
(white ants) present on the date and time of the Inspection. Borers of seasoned timber will not
be reported on. Wood decay fungi (rot) will not be reported on but may be reported as a
conducive condition for termite activity.
In both cases, the Inspection will not cover any other pests and the Report will not comment
on them. Dry wood termites (Family: KALOTERMITIDAE) and European House Borer
(Hylotrupes bujulus Linnaeus) will be excluded from the Inspection.
Scope Of Pest Inspection And Report According To Australian Standards
The pre-purchase timber pest inspection will report any evidence of a termite treatment that
happens to be found at the time of the inspection during the course of a limited non-evasive
review. Where evidence of a treatment is reported then the Client should assume that the treatment was applied as a curative and not as a preventative pest control. You should obtain a statement from the owner as to any treatments that have been carried out to the property. It is important to obtain copies of any paperwork issued.
