  INITIAL INSPECTION & REPORT  
   
Involving a complete thorough inspection of the subject buildings and surrounds. A detailed written report should be supplied in accordance with Australian Standard 3660. Recommended as essential.
   

Firstly, it is essential for the termite controller to complete a thorough inspection of the buildings and surrounds, in accordance with Australian Standard 3660.

   
The cost of a termite inspection report and quotation / treatment recommendations is usually between $200 to $300, for an average size dwelling, depending upon style of construction and ease of inspection access. Some companies offer a "free inspection" but carry out a superficial inspection and build the cost into their quotation / treatment proposals.
   
A professional termite inspection and report to AS 3660 could save you thousands of dollars - specific areas inspected include accessible timbers within the sub-floor, roof void, exterior and interior of the building and other timber structures, fences and trees within a 50 metre radius of the buildings but within the property boundary.
