Pre-Construction Termite Treatment
Pre-construction termite treatment, often called a termite pre-treat, protects a new home by treating the soil before the slab is poured. It creates a protective zone under and around the foundation, which is the hardest area to treat once a home is built.
Many builders and lenders ask for proof of termite pre-treatment for new homes, so it is best to schedule it early in the building process.
Pre-Construction vs Post-Construction Treatment
| Pre-construction | Post-construction | |
|---|---|---|
| When | Before the slab is poured | After the home is built |
| How | Soil under and around the planned foundation is treated | Treatment around the existing foundation, often with bait stations and monitoring |
| Best for | New homes and additions | Existing homes, or new homes that were not pre-treated |
Why Termite Protection Matters for New Homes
Subterranean termites live in the soil and travel into homes through cracks in the slab, expansion joints, and plumbing penetrations. A new home is just as vulnerable as an older one, and repairs are rarely covered by homeowner’s insurance. Treating before construction is the most effective time to protect the foundation.
Ongoing Protection
After construction, bait stations, monitoring, and regular termite inspections help keep the home protected. We also provide free preventive maintenance advice and can help if repairs or sealing are needed.
