You may be surprised at what can weaken timber
If you are considering a property with any timber structures we highly recommend that you get a Building and Pest Inspection. You may be really surprised at what can weaken timber in your property, whether it is the handrails, decks, roof frames, walls or frame.

- leaking pipes
- areas of high moisture
- and even termites.
Termites need moisture to survive and a termite nest shows up on the thermal camera because of the high moisture content and heat generated by the termites. See these examples ...
