I think, the treatment is not a one time treatment.. every few years, you need to call them up again (if you want to) to redo the treatment..
it's true that they have to drill & pump chemical every few years.. Termites treatment - for new houses, - your comments please..

NLC termguard, cost a bomb. i have a bungalow project use their system.Also, you only done on area need relay tiles or you actually do the who GF tiles replacing? How about if pnly partial example: Kitches / Car Pourche etc? the piping in my house reno was done by my indon, in fact any plumber also can do it, drill holes surrounding the house, insert perforated pvc piping with end cap, wrap with geo-textile and connect to each other from front to back. i replace tiles for the whole house QUOTE(Kelvin5717 @ Apr 6 2011, 09:51 PM) that is to punch a small hole at the corner of your house and surounding it.. it will punch and inject the chemical through ur existing tile after that close up with cement so ur tile wont look so nice d... the conceal piping buried under the floor tiles actually serve the same function as u mention above, only difference is my floor tiles not need to drill in future, and i won't have those chemical smell inside the house when i recharge it every 2 years.hmm i also dunno but u see there is no FOREVER termite treatment in the world.. even if we chose the above method i mention to areankim, 3 years later u still ask ppl come and inject it again and ur tile look ugly le... if use baiting system u still put chemical and wait those termite carry it back to their king and queen and the colony might die but later come new gang u still put again same chemical thingy inside the house |
