Termites or ‘white ants’ have the potential to cause thousands of dollars in damage to your property. It’s vital you engage the services of Lawton’s Building & Pest Inspections every year to ensure your home is not being eaten by destructive termites. These destructive creatures are sometimes called ‘white ants’ owing to their creamy colouring and ant-like features.
Australia is home to some 350 termite varieties and 20 of these species are considered highly destructive to dwellings. Termites keep away from light and conceal themselves within woodwork.
When undetected they quietly cause structural damage to properties rendering them unsafe. The cost to repair termite damage if left too long can run into thousands and sometimes tens of thousands.
Highly experienced and fully licensed inspectors conduct thorough inspections of your property to reveal any termite problems and advise on the correct course of action. Often times inspections detect evidence of termite activity that had gone unnoticed by other pest inspectors.
