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.

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.

“I use ABC Home Services for a home that I manage. We have lawn service every other week. They didn't blow off the back deck which isn't unusual. They flew through the backyard and I am looking at grass/weeds over 1 ft tall that they missed. I think it's because the branches were low on the trees. They still could have used the weed eater on that section and chose not to. They are not always detail oriented.Some weeks are better than others. I use the irrigation department. I really like Brandon. I also have weed service. Today a new guy that I've never met came to treat the weeds because I wasn't satisfied with the results seeing that we have been having them treated for over 1 year. He explained to me that it is not an easy or a fast fix. He was very detailed and I have a much better understanding now. His name is John and I like him a lot ABC is very responsive. 'm very happy with ABC as a whole.”
