Pest Inspections
If there are signs of termites or other pests on your property, Richard will find them. He's renowned as the Gold Coast's most determined inspector.
Termite Treatment
Richard mainly uses Trelona® ATBS — BASF's Advanced Termite Baiting System — to build the most effective treatment system for your property.
Building & Pest
Before you buy, get the Gold Coast's most experienced inspectors through the property. Richard teams up with the Gold Coast Building Inspector.
Independent. Professional. Experienced.
Independent inspections
Richard gives fearless and frank testimony to what lies behind your walls and under your floors. Buying a home? Think twice before accepting an inspector chosen by the agent — always get an independent assessment.
Professional reports
He does the hard things: thorough, careful, and a report that’s comprehensive. Hardly a week goes by where Richard doesn’t attend a property that recently passed another company’s inspection — and is plagued by termites.
Two decades of eyes
The cost of overlooking termite evidence adds up to tens of thousands. Some signs only stand out to an experienced inspector — they know where to look and what to look for.
Worse than fire, flood and storms combined
Termites cost Australians about $4 billion a year, averaging $10,000 a home — and your building insurance doesn’t cover it. Richard finds termite activity in almost every property he inspects, often in homes inspected by someone else weeks earlier.
Seeing behind the wall
Nothing compensates for the knowledge of a good inspector — Richard finds termites others miss without any technology at all. Too many inspectors skip the simple things: lifting carpet, checking roof voids and subfloors. Where technology earns its place is non-invasive checks inside wall cavities, because termites create heat and need moisture to survive.
Termatrac detection
Radar, moisture sensor and thermal sensor in one unit, calibrated specifically to detect termite and insect activity behind surfaces.
Moisture meter
Termites combine dirt and water to build mud tubes. Unexplained moisture is one of the most reliable signs of activity in a wall.
Trelona® ATBS baiting
BASF's Advanced Termite Baiting System — bait stations that attract termites to an inert but fatal bait, with regular monitoring to keep your property safe.
What other inspectors missed
Every one of these was found on a Gold Coast property. Several had passed another company’s inspection only weeks before.
