Why it matters in Richards Bay & Zululand

Zululand is hot, humid and heavily vegetated — about as termite-friendly as South Africa gets. Industrial and port-related development around Richards Bay also means a lot of large-footprint slabs, and large footprints are where the tiered per-square-metre rate starts working in your favour.

What we watch for on Richards Bay & Zululand sites

Because of the distance, northern KZN work is best booked in advance so we can plan the trip properly and, where possible, run more than one site on the same journey. Tell us your programme dates when you enquire and we’ll build a schedule around them.

Pre-construction or post-construction?

If the slab hasn’t been cast, you’re in the cheap version of this job. If it has, we can still help.

Pre-construction

Treated before the slab is cast. Full footprint, unbroken barrier, roughly 90% cheaper than doing it later.

How it works

Post-construction

For buildings already up, additions, or where termites have already appeared. Drill, inject and trench.

Questions from Richards Bay & Zululand customers

How long does it take to get my certificate?

Your certificate is issued within 12 hours of the treatment being completed and payment being received. In most cases we email it the same working day. If your inspection is booked for the following morning, tell us when you book and we’ll prioritise the paperwork so nothing on site is held up.

Settling the invoice on the day is the one thing that keeps the clock running — so if the certificate is urgent, get the payment away as soon as you have the invoice and we will do the rest.

How much does soil poisoning cost?

Pricing is based on the square meterage to be treated, site access, and whether the job is pre-construction or post-construction. Pre-construction is dramatically cheaper because the soil is open and accessible.

There is a price calculator on our cost page that will give you a rough figure in about ten seconds — it runs on our real rates. Treat it as an estimate: we still quote in writing with the scope spelled out, and plenty of jobs come in cheaper once we have seen the drawing.

What's the difference between pre-construction and post-construction treatment?

Pre-construction treatment happens before the slab is cast, while the soil is open. We treat the entire footprint and the trenches, creating an unbroken barrier under the whole building. It’s thorough and inexpensive because nothing has to be drilled or lifted.

Post-construction treatment is done on a building that already exists. It involves drilling through the slab or paving at intervals and injecting termiticide, or trenching around the perimeter. It works, but it costs considerably more and is harder to make continuous.

If your slab hasn’t been cast, book pre-construction. It’s the single biggest cost saving available on this job.

Do you service my area?

We cover every square metre of KwaZulu-Natal from our Hillcrest base — the Upper Highway, the Durban metro, the North and South Coasts, the Midlands, and up into Zululand and northern KZN. If you are anywhere in the province, we service you as standard.

We also take work in Johannesburg and Gauteng. Anything outside KwaZulu-Natal is quoted per project rather than off our standard travel rate, so send us the site details and we will come back with a firm figure.
