Termite Control

Termites cause serious structural damage, often silently inside wall voids, timber frames, skirting, and roof structures. A site assessment is the only reliable way to identify colony activity and design a treatment plan that works for the specific construction type and infestation stage.

Overview

What this service covers

Termites are one of the costliest property risks because damage often begins quietly inside wall voids, timber door frames, false ceilings, skirting, and roof structures. Moisture, hidden access routes, and untreated timber can all help colonies stay active long before the damage becomes obvious.

We approach termite control as a long-term asset protection service rather than a one-time chemical visit. The site assessment checks mud tubes, live activity, timber moisture, hollow-sounding sections, expansion joints, and garden-to-building contact points before a control method is selected. Depending on the construction type and the infestation stage, we may use bait stations, localized corrective treatment, foaming, trenching, drilling, or targeted timber protection with monitoring points for follow-up review.

Signs of infestation

  • Mud tubes on walls, pillars, garden borders, or foundation lines
  • Hollow-sounding skirting, frames, cupboards, or timber beams
  • Discarded termite wings near windows, lights, or floor edges after rain
  • Blistered paint, sagging wood, or pin-sized exit holes in timber finishes
  • Soft floor sections or sudden failure in built-in joinery

Ideal for

  • Homes & Apartments
  • Hotels & Restaurants
  • Factories & Warehouses

Treatment Process

How the service is delivered

  1. 01

    Assess

    We survey internal timber, external perimeters, plumbing entry points, subfloors, false ceilings, and moisture-prone zones to identify colony access routes.

  2. 02

    Treat

    The treatment plan can include baiting systems, direct corrective applications, soil barrier creation, or localized foam injection based on the infestation profile.

  3. 03

    Monitor

    Monitoring points and revisit schedules help confirm colony suppression and detect renewed activity before structural damage escalates.

  4. 04

    Prevent

    We provide drainage, ventilation, timber storage, and landscaping recommendations so the property remains less attractive to future termite attack.

Methods Used

Treatment methods used

Methods are selected based on the construction type, infestation stage, and where colony activity is found.

Baiting systems

Installed where colony interception and gradual transfer are preferred, especially around sensitive households or operational commercial sites.

Localized corrective treatment

Precision drilling, injection, or foaming into active galleries helps stop localized attack in frames, door jambs, and concealed timber elements.

Barrier support

For suitable sites, trenching and perimeter treatment help defend structures against ongoing subterranean entry pressure.

Safety & Eco Measures

Measured treatment, clear re-entry guidance, and practical prevention

  • Application areas are selected carefully to limit unnecessary exposure and align with integrated pest management principles.
  • Technicians brief occupants on re-entry timing, ventilation, and how to keep treated zones undisturbed.
  • Sensitive areas such as childcare rooms, food handling spaces, and occupied hotel sections can be phased for lower disruption.

Best for timber-heavy buildings

Recommended for villas, older homes, hotels, schools, factories, and offices with concealed timber, partitions, or archive storage.

Assessment-based pricing

We never publish blanket rates because termite treatment depends on construction type, extent of activity, and access conditions.

Pre-treatment prep checklist

  • Clear access to skirting lines, store rooms, meter boxes, and perimeter walls.
  • Move stacked timber, cardboard, and unused files away from assessment areas.
  • Highlight any recent leaks, bathroom seepage, or drainage concerns to the technician.
  • If possible, keep pets away from active treatment areas until the all-clear is given.

Post-treatment instructions

  • Do not disturb bait stations, drill points, or marked monitoring locations.
  • Repair plumbing leaks and improve drainage where recommended.
  • Avoid storing firewood or timber offcuts directly against walls.
  • Book follow-up visits on the interval advised in your service report.

Quick prevention tips

  • Reduce soil-to-timber contact in gardens and service yards.
  • Maintain roof drainage and fix water ingress quickly after monsoon rain.
  • Use treated timber where possible for new fittings and exterior work.
  • Inspect false ceilings, window frames, and store rooms at least twice per year.

FAQs

Common questions about termites

At minimum, an annual termite check is recommended for most properties. Buildings with timber-heavy construction, previous termite history, high moisture exposure, or landscaping-to-wall contact may need more frequent review.
