Structural protection
Termite Control in the Eastern Cape & Gauteng
Subterranean termites work silently, often causing significant structural damage before they're noticed. ASC technicians inspect for the tell-tale signs mud tubes, hollow-sounding timber and discarded wings then implement a targeted barrier treatment to protect the structure. We focus on accurate identification and long-term protection rather than cosmetic fixes, and provide clear documentation of the work carried out.

How it works
Our termite control process
Every programme follows a clear, repeatable sequence and every step is documented.
- Inspect. We examine foundations, timber and the perimeter for mud tubes and active workings.
- Identify. The species and extent of activity are confirmed to target the colony correctly.
- Treat. A soil/barrier treatment is applied to intercept and eliminate the colony.
- Protect. We advise on moisture, timber and landscaping changes that reduce future risk.
