Termite risk and pest inspections in Melton South VIC
Termite protection in a new home starts at the slab, with a collar sealing each point where a pipe passes through. We have recorded those collars missing at Melton South pours. Later, the management notice that records the whole system regularly turns out to be absent from the meter box.

Collars seal the gap where pipes pass through the slab. They are fitted at the pour.
A missing collar is a concealed path that cannot be closed afterwards.
The notice in the meter box is your only durable record of the system.
Water held against the building is what makes the risk real.
AS 4349.3 reports evidence and risk on the day. It never guarantees anything.
