Termite Inspection From $280 — Brisbane, Logan & Gold Coast
Most pest controllers will tell you they're the best. We'd rather just show you what we find. Using Termatrac T3i radar, we find the termites others miss — advanced detection technology that picks up movement through your walls.

Why We Charge $280
Free Isn’t Really Free — And That’s the Whole Point
There are two kinds of termite inspectors in Australia: the ones who need to find a problem to get paid, and the ones who get paid to tell you the truth. A “free inspection” isn’t a gift — it’s a sales visit with an inspection attached, because the only way that business makes money is by selling you a treatment afterwards, whether you need one or not.
We charge $280 for one reason: it means our incentive is to find out what’s actually happening in your home, not to manufacture a reason to sell you something. Once you see it that way, comparing us to a free-quote company isn’t really a comparison — it’s two different businesses doing two different things.
You’re Not Being Paranoid
The Thought That Brought You Here
Most people who call us have had the same thought sitting in the back of their mind for months, sometimes years. Maybe it was a discarded wing on the windowsill. Maybe a neighbour just found termites two doors down. Maybe you bought this house recently and nobody’s properly checked it since.
That feeling isn’t paranoia — Queensland has some of the highest termite activity in the country, and by the time damage is visible, it’s usually been happening, unseen, for years. And most people who’ve dealt with a pest company before have a second thought sitting right alongside the first one: I don’t want some bloke turning up, poking around for ten minutes with a screwdriver, and telling me I need six grand of work whether I actually need it or not. We built this business around removing that second thought, not just answering the first one.
Why This Actually Works
What Makes a Real Inspection Different
1. This is a real, local risk
Termite activity across Gold Coast, Logan and Brisbane South is high enough that it’s a “when,” not an “if,” for a meaningful share of homes.
2. Most inspections can’t actually find it
A visual-only, torch-and-screwdriver inspection can’t see behind plasterboard, under a slab, or inside a wall cavity. Termatrac T3i’s radar and moisture sensors can.
3. Free has a hidden cost
A free inspector’s business only survives by finding — or inventing — something to sell. That’s not a character flaw, it’s just how the incentive is built.
4. $280 is the proof, not the barrier
Paying for the inspection is exactly what makes the finding — or the all-clear — trustworthy.

What actually happens on the day?
Our technician inspects your property using a Termatrac T3i — radar movement detection, laser-guided temperature readings and moisture sensing — not just a visual check. You’ll get a clear walkthrough of exactly what was found, on the spot.
Do you service my suburb?
We cover Gold Coast, Logan and Brisbane South. Pop your suburb or postcode in the form and we’ll confirm availability when we call.
