What happens during a professional termite inspection?

The short answer

During a professional termite inspection, a licensed technician visually examines all accessible areas of your property, including the interior, exterior, roof void and sub-floor, looking for live termites, damage and conditions that attract them. A typical inspection takes 1 to 2 hours, and you receive a clear written report outlining any findings and recommended next steps.
