What is involved
New builds in Victoria require a termite management system, and the most cost effective time to install one is during construction, before the slab is poured and while penetrations are still accessible. We work with builders, owner builders and homeowners to install systems that meet the requirements of AS 3660.1, including chemical treated zones, physical barriers and reticulation systems that can be refilled for years to come. Material choice matters too, including which flooring options resist termites. For an existing home, start with a termite inspection instead.
- Under slab and perimeter chemical treated zones
- Physical barrier systems to penetrations and perimeters
- Coordination with your build schedule
- Documentation and durable notice for handover
- Advice on post construction inspection intervals

Questions we get asked
Does a new home in Victoria need termite protection?
New building work in termite-prone areas needs a termite management system, and the most cost-effective time to install one is during construction.
Retrofitting protection after the slab is down is always more disruptive and more expensive.
When in the build should termite protection go in?
Before the slab is poured. That is why it needs to be planned with your builder early, not added at the end.
Talk to us at the planning stage and we will work around your build schedule.
What standard do the systems meet?
Pre-construction systems are installed to meet the requirements of Australian Standard AS 3660.1, which covers termite management for new building work.
You receive documentation of what was installed, which you will want for your records and any future sale.
Does pre-construction protection last forever?
No system lasts forever. It has a service life, and landscaping or paving added after handover can bridge it completely.
Annual inspections keep the protection working and catch problems while they are small.
