Booking - Once you’re happy with the plan, we’ll book you in (usually within 5 working days). Depending on the infestation, you may need to vacate the house and turn off the power for a few hours. Our technicians will carry out the treatment thoroughly while keeping you updated throughout the process.
Our Treatments
Standard Treatedment - We apply two coats of a specialised treatment to all exposed timbers. This soaks deep into the wood, killing active borer, destroying larvae, and protecting against new infestations. In good conditions, this treatment can last up to 10 years.
Injection Treatments - For severe or localised infestations, our technicians drill small holes into the timber and inject insecticide directly inside. This method penetrates the timber slowly, reaching hidden larvae and eliminating borer from within.
Replacement of Damaged Timber - If timber has been heavily damaged and is no longer structurally sound, we recommend replacing it with new, treated timber. This ensures your property remains safe and protected against future infestations.
Moisture Conrol & Ventilation - Borer are attracted to damp, untreated timber. During our inspection, if we find excess moisture or poor ventilation in your subfloor, we may recommend improving airflow, repairing leaks, or applying a preservative. These steps create a healthier environment for your timbers and help prevent reinfestation.
Monitoring & Maintenance - Unfortunately, no pest treatment provides a lifetime guarantee. That’s why we recommend ongoing monitoring and routine maintenance of your timbers to ensure they remain protected. We can provide a tailored maintenance plan and quote to keep your home in top condition.For full health and safety details regarding all treatments, click here
