The Problem in Newcastle

Newcastle and the Hunter are high-risk termite areas. Subterranean termites can cause catastrophic structural damage — often uninsured. Without prevention, termites can consume structural timber for months or years before detection.

Our Solution

We provide annual termite inspections, chemical soil barrier installation, baiting and monitoring systems, and advice on reducing termite risk (moisture, timber-on-ground, ventilation). Prevention is far cheaper than treatment and repairs.
