Why Choose Andy’s Pest Control for Termite Inspections in Blackheath?
When you book a termite inspection Sydney homeowners rely on, a fully licensed technician from our family-owned team turns up on time, checks your property properly and explains what they find in plain language. Here is how the visit runs.
Arrival and Assessment
Your technician arrives within the window we give you, and we work from 6am to 9pm, seven days a week, across the entire suburb. We walk the property with you first, so we know what has worried you. From there we assess and identify the problem, and locate where it is coming from if there is a nest. It is the same thorough approach we take with any termite inspection sydney homeowners book, applied to Blackheath’s older timber homes.
Straight Answers, Fixed Value
Afterwards we sit down and explain what we found, what it means and what we would do next. Pricing starts from $100 with no call-out fee, and you pay after the job is done.
A good inspection ends with you understanding your home better than when we arrived. If we can’t explain it simply, we haven’t done our job.

Inspection checklist
What Do We Check During a Termite Inspection?
Our fully licensed technicians work through the same set of areas on every termite inspection in Blackheath and the Blue Mountains. Here is what we look at, and what you get afterwards.
Inside the building
We check the roof void, the subfloor and any accessible wall areas, looking for mudding, timber changes and moisture staining. Suspect timber is lightly probed or sounded for hollowing.
We also look at internal moisture zones, such as around ducted air-conditioning, exhaust fan outlets and ceilings below bathrooms and laundries, because termites often travel along wiring and plumbing penetrations.
Outside the building
Outdoors, we inspect exterior timbers, fences and trees, plus garden areas close to the house. We pay close attention to places where water can get in or timber meets masonry:
- Chimneys
- Skylights
- Roof valleys
- Penetrations such as antenna mounts and solar conduits
What you receive afterwards
We explain our findings in plain language, then give you a written quote. You know the cost before any work starts, and you pay after the job is done.
How a Roof Void Check Works
When we check the roof void on a Blackheath home, we work slowly. Our technicians scan the timbers with a torch or headlamp, looking for mudding, changes in the timber and moisture staining. Where something looks suspect, we lightly probe or sound the timber to listen for hollowing. It is a careful visual check, and because it is non-invasive, nothing in your home is disturbed.
What Should a Termite Inspection Report Tell You?
A good report should be plain enough to act on. When we finish a termite inspection, we want you to know exactly where things stand and what happens next.
Active termites
The report should say clearly whether live termites were found, where they were, and what type we believe they are. If we find none, it should say that too, along with the areas we could and couldn’t access.
Damage and conducive conditions
It should note any timber damage, plus the things that invite termites in, such as moisture around chimneys, skylights and roof valleys, or timber touching soil or masonry.
Recommended next steps
You should get straightforward options: treat, monitor, or fix a moisture issue. Our fixed-value pricing means you see the figure up front.
How Do You Check a Termite Inspector Is Licensed in NSW?
Before you book, ask the inspector for their NSW licence number, the licence class and the expiry date. Then confirm they are licensed for timber pest treatment, not just general pest control, because the two are not the same thing.
When you compare quotes, ask what each one actually covers:
- Is it inspection only, or does it include treatment and follow-up visits?
- Does it include barrier installation or bait station monitoring?
- How long before people and pets can safely re-enter treated areas?
A clear, written answer to each of these makes quotes much easier to compare.
