Timberpro, Inc. gave the lowest quotation, but our main reason for choosing them was because of their guarantee. It's part of the contract that they will repair any damage (caused by termites) incurred after they've treated the house. Here are the details:
I. SCOPE OF WORK
The service we offer aims to protect your investment in structural real estate (house or other buildings) from destructive subterranean termites and wood borers.
A. Termiticide Application on Soil - the process of drenching the soil with Fipronil termiticide formulation to create protection against subterranean termites within the immediate area of the structure. This termiticides manage termite colonies and eventually kills the whole population. To this end, this diluted Fipronil termiticide formulations are applied using our 5Hp gasoline-driven power sprayer, which can generate pressures as much as 965.3 Kpa to attain the maximum effective results.
A1. Mound Demolition - If mound exists.
A2. Cordoning Method - the process of injecting diluted termiticide formulations into the ground as close as possible to the structure, with our Soil Slab Injector.
A.2.1 Soil Slab Injection Method - a part of Cordoning Method for existing structures whose immediate surroundings are covered by concrete slabs. Holes ranging from 12.7 mm. to 25.4 mm. in diameter are bored, as close as possible to the structure, and deep enough to penetrate the slab. The liquid termiticides are injected through these perforations using our Soil Slab Injector. Treatment of existing perforated pipes/reticulation system is not included in the scope of work, because we cannot guarantee termiticide distribution through this system. If you wish to have your perforated pipes/reticulation system injected with termiticide, that will be charged separately and charges will be based on the reticulation system design. Service warranty will only be given if standard scope of work is done (Cordoning method) regardless of additional treatment of reticulation system.
B. Spot Treatment – surface application to limited areas where termites are present for immediate colony management.
