Brisbane Termite Repairs: What You Need to Know

What do you need to know about Brisbane termite repairs, and is it the end of the world if your Brisbane property has been affected by these pests? The good news is that termite damage doesn’t mean that your home is doomed or that you shouldn’t buy that particular property, but it does need to be treated and repaired by a professional pest technician as soon as possible.

At Ironbark Building and Pest, we are passionate about helping Brisbane residents clear their home of damage from termite infestations. We achieve this through our comprehensive end-to-end pest management services which begins with a building and pest inspection and concludes with guarding your property against any further termites. Here is everything you need to know about our Brisbane termite repairs.

Why Do Termites Love Brisbane so Much?

While it’s true that termites affect hundreds of thousands of homes across Australia each year, they seem particularly interested in infesting Brisbane properties. This is no coincidence, as Brisbane's warm, humid, sub-tropical climate makes it the ideal location for termites to thrive - making termite damage one of the most common Brisbane building repairs.

Termites are happy to eat just about any kind of wood found in homes but are even more attracted to timber that has more moisture in it. Given that Brisbane has wet and humid summers each year, termites find plenty to munch on in the wood found in the homes here.

Conducting a Pest Inspection

The first step to conducting termite repairs in Brisbane homes is to thoroughly identify how much damage there is. At Ironbark Building and Pest, we conduct pre-purchase, pre-sale, and routine building and pest inspections for Brisbane homes. Part of this process involves inspecting for any termite damage in the property.

However, because termites can burrow deep into the wood of a house, we may need to conduct an invasive inspection to fully comprehend the extent of the damage. Once we understand exactly where the termites have been and what kind of repairs are needed to improve the property, we can draw up a quote for you that outlines all the costs.

The Types of Brisbane Termite Repairs

After getting to understand the severity of the termite damage, we can work out the best time for us to come in and conduct building repairs and termite treatment. The age and style of a property does not really affect our repairs, which are more influenced by the extent of the damage.

Here are some of the common repair and management measures we take on Brisbane properties affected by termite damage:

  • Removing the affected timber and rebuilding the structure to ensure its ongoing strength

  • Treating the home to protect it against any further termite infestations using baiting and monitoring systems to identify and eliminate the colony

No matter what kind of repairs we are conducting on your property’s termite damage, we always guarantee professionalism in our services. We carry out this promise through being as unobtrusive as possible and completing all repairs and maintenance work to the highest possible standard.
