Termite Barriers Across Sydney

In most cases, yes. The National Construction Code requires a termite management system for new houses and outbuildings in termite-prone areas where the primary building elements can be damaged by termites. Sydney is termite-prone, so the system is installed to AS 3660.1 and your certifier will ask for the installation certificate and durable notice before the Occupation Certificate is issued.

As soon as you have a rough slab date. Collars and under-slab systems go in after the plumber has set out the services and before the concrete is poured, so we lock our visit in around your plumber and concreter.

The price depends on the slab area, perimeter length, number of pipe penetrations, the system you choose, site complexity and how many visits the build needs. Send us your plans and we will return a fixed written quote that covers every stage. Quoting is free.

Both can comply with AS 3660.1. Physical systems need no chemical top-ups and are designed to last as long as the slab while they stay intact. Chemical soil barriers can cost less up front and can be recharged, especially when a reticulation system is laid. Many Sydney builds combine physical collars with a perimeter system.

A durable notice fixed in the meter box, an installation certificate listing the system, products, areas protected and our licence details, product information, and maintenance and inspection advice for the owner.

No system makes a building termite-proof. A compliant barrier stops termites getting in unseen and forces any activity out into the open, where an inspection can pick it up. That is why a timber pest inspection at least every 12 months is recommended after handover.

Physical barriers are designed to last the life of the slab as long as they are not damaged or covered. A chemical soil barrier lasts as long as the product label and soil conditions allow, and a reticulation system lets it be recharged without lifting paving.

Yes. We install systems for extensions, secondary dwellings, duplexes, townhouses and multi-unit projects, and we tie new work into the existing building's protection where that is possible.

You can no longer protect under the slab or around the pipes directly, but the building can still be protected with a post-construction system such as a trenched and treated chemical perimeter or in-ground baiting. It usually costs more and covers less, so it is always better to book before the pour.

Yes. Builders and developers get consistent pricing across lots, one point of contact, scheduling around each site's program and a full document set for every dwelling.
