More than an inspection — a structural and environmental risk profile. Understand what makes a property vulnerable before a pest problem develops, or document what conditions contributed after one has.
Independent pest risk assessment before committing to a property purchase. Covers structural timber, drainage infrastructure, moisture-linked pest risk, and external habitat factors that drive pest pressure on the property.
Before exchanging contracts or making an offer subject to pest assessment
Pest risk inspection between one tenancy and the next. Documents any active infestations or structural conditions that arose during the tenancy, protecting landlords from future liability and tenants from inheriting unreported problems.
After tenant departure, before advertising or signing new tenancy
Pest risk assessment after construction or renovation work. Identifies new structural entry points created by the building process — conduit penetrations, disturbed seals, disconnected extraction systems — before they are colonised.
Within 4 weeks of construction completion
Assessment focused specifically on structural pest-entry risk: gaps in the building envelope, damaged drainage components, moisture ingress points, and landscaping factors that create pest pressure against the structure.
For properties with recurring pest problems or after a pest infestation is resolved
Risk-specific assessment for properties in known high-pressure locations: near river corridors, adjacent to agriculture, in urban zones with high cockroach or rodent background pressure, or in fynbos-edge properties with termite risk.
When purchasing or leasing in a known pest-pressure area
Scheduled annual assessment for property managers, landlords with rental portfolios, and homeowners who want a documented annual pest risk record. Report documents current status, year-on-year change, and recommended preventative actions.
Annually for portfolio properties and high-value residential
