Pre-Construction Termite Control in Austin, TX
The warm, humid climate in Central Texas makes our area a hotbed for pest activity, including termites. The most effective way to protect your biggest investment from these destructive pests is by installing Termimesh during construction. The experts at ABC Home & Commercial Services can work with you to ensure this proven, non-chemical solution serves as an effective physical barrier to keep termites away from your home.
The EPA reports that steel mesh barriers “have been shown to perform effectively as physical barriers” for termites. Termimesh takes that basic principle and improves on it with a unique, woven mesh of non-corrosive stainless steel that termites simply can’t penetrate.
Termites can’t eat through it, crawl through it, break through it or get around it. And to ensure proper installation and high quality, Termimesh only allows accredited and licensed installers—such as ABC Home & Commercial Services in Austin—to perform installations.
The ABC Process
1. Contact ABC
When you contact us, we will schedule an inspection to get an understanding of the problem. In some cases, we can give you a quote over the phone.
2. Get An Estimate
If you have an inspection, we will send you a custom treatment plan and estimate afterward. Once we get your approval, we will schedule your treatment.
3. Treatment
We will come to your property and treat for pests in common hiding and nesting areas. Over time, you will start seeing less and less pest activity.
4. Prevention
Customers with our ongoing pest management services will receive periodic retreatments to prevent the return of the most common pests in our area.
Keeping termites out with Termimesh means zeroing in on the areas where termites will try to get in. For that reason, Termimesh is a non-chemical, permanent barrier, that is used in very specific places in the home’s slab. It’s essentially a stainless steel barrier to keep termites out.
For example, even before your builder pours the concrete for your slab, we encase all of the pipes that come through the slab for your plumbing system, with Termimesh, leaving no gap for termites to slip through.
In short, if there’s a way termites will try to get in, we block it with Termimesh.

What Our Customers Are Saying

“Ales did an amazing job with our consult appointment and we ended up contracting with ABC for an install on a water treatment system. He’s was timely, friendly, and completely professional. In fact, he answered questions that other estimators and sales reps from other companies left unanswered, and it was quite apparent that he was being more truthful and honest in his recommendations than some of the other companies we got estimates from. I greatly appreciate that he did not try to sell us on something that we did not need, or on an application that would not work on our property. We live in an older home that is definitely a fixer-upper, and we will definitely be calling on ABC Home and Commercial Services in the future for estimates on other projects. If you are in the market for a water treatment system for your home, or a number of other upgrades, you should definitely reach out to this company.”

“I didn’t realize until very recently that ABC has handyman services, as well as the myriad of other services they provide. John Nolker did a great job replacing drywall in my ceiling; it turned out to be a bigger project than anticipated and he was transparent throughout the entire process. He also helped clear away some insulation in my attic that was causing havoc near my attic and bathroom fans, as well as replacing a door knob and weather stripping. Super nice guy to boot. I highly recommend ABC handyman services and specifically John. Patrick Murray came back to do the floating and texturing and did a great job as well! Also super nice and helpful. Both excellent and professional. Definitely will be using ABC in the future. ..”
