Woodworm Treatment London

YOUR SERVICE · EXPLAINED

Old exit holes or active woodworm? Establish the evidence first

Exit holes in timber do not automatically prove a current woodworm infestation. Our woodworm assessment considers fresh evidence, timber condition and the location of damage in London properties. Photograph the area and retain any beetle specimen where safe. Note whether the concern involves furniture, floorboards or structural members.

Identification and activity assessment come before treatment selection. Different timber-boring insects and building conditions may require different responses, and inaccessible timber can limit what an inspection establishes. We explain the inspected scope and whether specialist structural or damp advice is needed. Cosmetic treatment cannot resolve a weakened structural component.

Avoid sanding away useful evidence before the visit. Provide access where practical and tell us about previous preservatives, renovations and damp issues. Any recommended application should be matched to the timber and use of the room. Where safety or structural integrity is uncertain, obtain an appropriate professional assessment rather than relying on pest treatment alone.
