FAQ

Building and Pest Inspections in Wyndham Vale: common questions

Can a pest inspection guarantee there are no termites?

No. AS 4349.3 records what is visible on the day. Termites can be hidden in walls or under floors, which is why the report also lists conditions that raise the risk.

Say live termites are spotted in a Wyndham Vale house. Do you treat them on the spot?

No. We inspect and report only. Treatment and any warranty on it come from a licensed pest manager.

What is excluded from a building and pest inspection?

Everything excluded from AS 4349.1 still applies: no testing of electrical, gas or plumbing systems, no appliances, pools or concealed areas. The pest part does not include invasive drilling or removing linings.
