In plain terms

Find the termites before you buy

A timber pest inspection identifies termites, wood borers, and fungal decay under Australian Standard AS 4349.3. PinPoint uses Termatrac detection, thermal imaging, and moisture meters to detect hidden timber pest activity across Perth properties. Reports delivered within 24-48 hours with a free debrief call.

How we look for termites

Termites hide. That is the entire problem.

An AS 4349.3 timber pest inspection covers termites, borers and wood decay fungi across the accessible areas of the property. Where something suggests activity behind a surface, we bring detection equipment to it rather than write down a hunch.

  • Termatrac termite detectionMovement and moisture sensing through a wall, used where the timber pest side of the job calls for it. No drilling, no damage.
  • Thermal imaging, includedThermal imaging is available in all inspection tiers at no extra cost. It reads temperature differences behind a surface, which is how moisture and missing insulation show up without opening a wall.
  • Moisture testing on every wet areaMoisture meters pick up leaks and damp behind tiles, walls and floors before there is anything to see on the surface.
  • Licensed for the workSky holds Cert III Pest Management and a WA Department of Health pest management licence. Public liability and professional indemnity insurance on every job.

What Is a Timber Pest Inspection?

A timber pest inspection identifies the presence of termites (white ants), wood borers, and fungal decay throughout a property. Conducted under Australian Standard AS 4349.3, we also assess conditions conducive to timber pest activity - including moisture issues, earth-to-timber contact, and poor drainage - so you understand your risk profile, not just what's visible today.

This is the “pest” half of the REIWA pre-purchase building and pest clause. It can be booked as a standalone inspection or combined with a building inspection at a discounted rate.

What's Included

  • Full timber pest assessment under AS 4349.3
  • Termite activity detection (live and historical)
  • Wood borer identification
  • Fungal decay assessment
  • Conducive conditions report - moisture, drainage, earth-to-timber contact
  • Risk profile and recommendations
  • Photographic evidence and clear findings summary

Advanced Detection Technology

Our inspectors use advanced termite detection tools including Termatrac technology to help identify hidden termite activity. Combined with thermal imaging, moisture meters, and borescope cameras, we detect what a visual inspection alone cannot.

Who Is This Inspection For?

Essential for anyone purchasing a property in Perth. Termite damage is not covered by standard home insurance in Australia. A timber pest inspection gives you the full picture before you commit - and can save you tens of thousands in hidden damage.

Also recommended for homeowners who haven't had a pest inspection in 12+ months, properties with known moisture issues, and anyone who has seen signs of termite activity.

Why Perth Properties Need Timber Pest Inspections

Perth sits within one of the highest termite risk zones in Australia. Our warm, dry summers and sandy soils create ideal conditions for subterranean termites. Species like Coptotermes acinaciformis and Coptotermes michaelseni are active year-round, with peak activity between October and March. A single colony can cause structural damage worth tens of thousands of dollars before visible signs appear.

A timber pest inspection is a non-invasive visual inspection of every area we can safely reach, carried out to AS 4349.3. If something cannot be accessed on the day, like a sealed roof void or a blocked subfloor, the report names it plainly, so you always know what was verified and what was not.

“I was present at the property when Sky did his inspection, and found that he provided extra information beyond the set requirements. He was friendly with a professional disposition. The report was thorough with clear photos, and at a reasonable cost.”
