Common property scope

Strata and multi-dwelling inspections

Termites do not respect lot boundaries. In strata buildings the perimeter gardens, common subfloors, fencing and landscaping timbers are usually common property, while damage tends to surface inside privately owned lots. A coordinated inspection program covers the scheme as one structure and reports in a form an owners corporation can act on.

Scope

What this covers

  • Whole-of-scheme external and common-area inspection on a set cycle

  • Lot-interior access coordinated with owners and tenants

  • A consolidated report for the strata manager with per-building findings

  • Register of conducive conditions in shared landscaping and services areas

Timing

When it's needed

Schemes with landscaped grounds, older timber-framed blocks, or a single lot reporting activity should move to a scheduled program rather than one-off callouts, a finding in one unit almost always raises questions about its neighbours.

Never disturb live termites or break open their workings, you will scatter the colony and make treatment harder to target. Take care around damaged flooring and decks, and treat any softened structural timber as unsafe to load until it has been assessed.

Quote variables

What shapes the scope

In NSW, pest management technicians must hold a licence issued by the Environment Protection Authority to carry out inspection and pest management work. Ask any inspector for their licence number and confirm it covers timber pest work before they attend.
