Pre-construction termite treatment is applied to a house site before the foundation is finished, using the soil and wood measures that Georgia's rules list for this stage. It is a different job from treating a finished house, because the soil and the framing are still open. A technician explains the method, records each area treated and sets out the contract that follows the house.
Pre-construction termite treatment is work done while a house is still being built. Georgia's structural pest control rules name pre-construction soil termiticide application and pre-construction wood treatment as control measures, which means they are recognized options under the state's framework. For a homeowner or builder in Snellville, the question is when the work happens, and whether it is done under the same written terms as any other termite contract.
Timing matters because the soil and the framing are open at that stage. Treating the soil before the foundation is closed in is a different job from treating a finished house, and the technician works around the construction schedule rather than the other way round. A new house on a slab, a crawl-space house with new piers and a house with wood that will sit in soil contact all need the work planned in advance. The slab termite page explains what happens once the slab is in place.
Phones are answered 24/7, so a builder or homeowner can call about a new project at any hour. Visits are booked when a technician is free, and the price is explained and approved before any work starts. To plan a pre-construction treatment, call (855) 974-4733.
It covers the soil and the wood that will support the house, applied before the foundation is closed in. The rules name pre-construction soil termiticide application and pre-construction wood treatment as the measures for this stage.
The soil work is done at the site while the ground is open, and the wood work is done before it is installed. Each measure is recorded so that the later annual inspections can compare the house against the original work.
The method and the areas treated are set out in writing. A homeowner or builder who keeps the contract and the diagram has a complete record of what was done before the house was finished.
The soil and the framing are open during construction, and the work is easier to apply and to check at that stage than after the house is finished. Scheduling it around the construction avoids a gap in the record.
Treating a finished house is a different job, because the soil is covered and the wood is hidden by the structure. Pre-construction work happens while the site is open, so the technician can reach the soil and the wood directly, and the result can be recorded on the diagram.
Yes. Georgia's rules require a written contract for each job. A warranty-only contract also requires an initial inspection with a diagram, an annual inspection and a conspicuous statement of the limits.
The contract protects both the homeowner and the builder by setting out what was done and what will be checked later. The statement about inspection, future treatment and repair limits should be read before signing, since it describes what the warranty does and does not cover.
The size of the site, the foundation type, the wood measures needed, the access during construction and whether the work is a single treatment or part of a contract shape the price. No figure is printed on this page, and the price is explained and approved in writing before any work starts.
A larger footprint means more soil to treat and more wood to cover. A crawl-space house adds the piers and the dirt floor to the work, and a slab house adds the perimeter and the penetrations. Access during construction can make the work faster or slower, depending on what the builder can open up.
The homeowner should keep the contract and the diagram, check that the annual inspection is booked, and watch for swarms, discarded wings and new damage. The record is what makes the annual inspection useful.
The first annual inspection compares the finished house against the original diagram. Any change in the soil, the joints or the penetrations is noted, and the homeowner can see whether anything has moved since the pre-construction work was done.
Do not apply a soil termiticide on a construction site without a technician's written plan, because the application depends on the soil, the depth of the excavation and the stage of the build. Do not let framing lumber sit on bare ground without a plan for it, and do not cover treated soil or wood until the technician has recorded the work. Keep workers and visitors away from freshly treated soil until the technician says it is safe, and follow the product label. If the builder changes the schedule, call the technician before the soil is opened again.
Pre-construction work follows the building schedule, so the technician agrees the timing with the builder or the homeowner before the soil is opened. The first call sets the date range, the foundation type and the stage the house has reached.
The technician checks the site for standing water, soil conditions, the foundation layout and any wood that will be in contact with soil. The findings set the method and are recorded on the diagram that the contract will use.
The treatment is applied to the soil or the wood as the rules and the site allow. The method is explained to the homeowner or builder before work starts, and the technician records where each measure was applied.
Each job requires its own written contract. For a warranty-only arrangement, the contract includes an initial inspection with a diagram, an annual inspection and a conspicuous statement about inspection, future treatment and repair limits. The diagram and the record of the work must agree.
After the house is finished, the contract calls for annual inspections. The inspector checks the house against the original diagram, and the record shows whether anything has changed since the pre-construction work was done.
This is the soil measure applied to the site before the foundation is closed in. The technician records the soil conditions and the areas treated, and the contract describes the method. It is the most common pre-construction measure, and it is planned around the excavation and the pour schedule.
This measure applies to wood that will sit in or near soil, such as framing and sill material, before it is installed. The technician explains which wood is treated and where it will be placed, and the contract records the treated material so the next inspection can check it.
Some houses use both measures, because the soil and the wood both need attention. The technician sets out how each one is applied, and the diagram shows where the soil work and the wood work meet. The combined plan is written as one contract with a single record.
A house with a crawl space needs attention to the piers, the sills and the dirt floor before the framing is covered. The technician plans the work around the access the builder provides, and the contract records the areas that will be open to inspection after the house is finished.

Snellville is in Gwinnett County, east of Atlanta, and the county's housing has grown in several waves. Across the Gwinnett County school district geography, most structures were built between 1970 and 1999, and a large share went up from 2000 on. A new house built now is part of that later growth, and its pre-construction work is planned around the same kind of slab or crawl-space foundation.
Lilburn, Lawrenceville, Norcross and Duluth each have older depot cores alongside newer growth, so a builder working across that range has to plan treatment for each kind of site. The technician explains how the local conditions affect the method, and the contract records the decisions for that specific house.

A Georgia termite warranty is a written contract, not a verbal promise.
It is termite work applied while a house is still being built. Georgia's rules name pre-construction soil termiticide application and pre-construction wood treatment as the measures for this stage. The work is recorded under a written contract and the diagram that goes with it.
No. The soil and the framing are open during construction, so the work is applied and checked differently from a finished house. The technician explains the method for each stage, and the contract records the work done before the house was closed in.
Yes. Georgia's rules require a written contract for each job. A warranty-only arrangement also includes an initial inspection with a diagram, an annual inspection and a conspicuous statement about inspection, future treatment and repair limits.
Before the soil is opened and before the wood is installed. Calling early lets the technician agree the timing with the builder, so the treatment is recorded before the foundation is closed in. Phones are answered 24/7, and visits are booked when a technician is free.
No treatment can promise that. The work applies the chosen measures to the soil and the wood at the stage they are needed, and the annual inspection checks the house afterward. The contract and the rules decide the response if activity returns.
The size of the site, the foundation type, the wood measures needed and the access during construction shape the price. No figure is printed on this website. The technician explains the scope on site, and the price is confirmed in writing before any work starts.
Keep the written contract, the diagram and the record of the treated areas. These are the documents the annual inspection compares against, and they will be needed if the house is sold or if activity appears later.
