What I look for first in Currumbin Waters

I regularly see termite and pest activity in Currumbin Waters linked to a handful of repeat factors around the perimeter and subfloor. In this suburb specifically, suburban irrigation, retaining walls, and shaded fences tend to be the biggest contributors, keeping timber and soil contact points attractive to termites.

Currumbin Waters properties vary block to block, so I still walk the full perimeter and subfloor rather than relying on a generic checklist, noting drainage, garden contact and ventilation as I go.

None of this means every Currumbin Waters property has active termites, but these are the conditions worth ruling out first. I typically check for:

• Garden beds, mulch or soil built up against external walls and slab edges.
• Timber decks, pergolas or fences with ground contact and no clear inspection gap.
• Retaining walls or garden edging built directly against timber cladding or framing.
• Poor subfloor ventilation, leaking taps or drainage run-off that keeps foundations damp.

Catching these early on a Currumbin Waters property usually means the fix is a maintenance job, not a treatment job. I'll flag priorities during the inspection and outline treatment options only where they're actually needed.
