Termites in Your Home? We'll Find Them and Treat Them Fast
Termites work silently inside timber and can cause serious damage long before you see a sign. Our Sydney team inspects, detects with thermal imaging, and treats termites to protect your property.
The Termite Types We Inspect and Treat Across Sydney
Not all termites behave the same way, and each type needs a different approach. We identify the type causing the problem, treat it at the source, and protect your property from further damage.
Subterranean Termites
Subterranean termites are the most common and most destructive type in Sydney homes, nesting underground and travelling through mud tubes to reach timber. We locate the activity, treat the colony, and protect your property from further damage.
Drywood Termites
Drywood termites live entirely inside dry, seasoned timber and do not need soil or moisture, often turning up in furniture, flooring, and roof timbers. We inspect the affected timber, treat the infestation, and advise on protecting the rest of your property.
Dampwood Termites
Dampwood termites are drawn to timber with high moisture or decay, so they are common around leaks, poor drainage, and rotting wood. We treat the active termites and help you fix the moisture issues that attract them.
Common Signs of Termite Activity in Your Home or Business
Termites usually stay hidden, so the first warning is often a small detail that is easy to miss. Left alone, the damage quietly spreads and gets more expensive to fix. Here is what we see most, and what we do about it.
Mud Tubes on Walls or Subfloors
Pencil-width mud tubes along walls, foundations, or subfloor timbers are a classic sign of subterranean termites. They build these tunnels to move between the soil and your timber while staying hidden.
Termite inspectionHollow or Damaged Timber
Timber that sounds hollow when tapped, soft floorboards, or skirting that crumbles often means termites have eaten the wood from inside. The surface can look normal while the timber underneath is gone.
Termite inspectionDiscarded Wings or Swarmers
Small piles of shed wings near windowsills, light fittings, or door frames are left when winged termites swarm to start a new colony. Seeing them indoors usually means termites are close by.
