Construction Pest Control Services for Your New Build

Building something new? Termites don't wait for the final inspection to move in. Cedar Pest Control specializes in construction pest control services that protect your project from day one. Our termite exterminators use the Sentricon Always Active™ system, work around your schedule, and guarantee results. If termites appear after installation, we'll return and re-treat at no additional cost to you or the homeowner.

Subterranean termites are the biggest threat to new builds. They colonize disturbed soil during excavation, feed on exposed lumber during framing, and use foundation contact points as direct highways into your structure.

What Happens When Construction Sites Skip Termite Protection

Skipping pre-construction termite control puts your entire project at risk. Here's what builders and buyers face without professional protection:

Closing delays when lenders reject properties without termite documentation
Budget overruns from emergency treatments after infestations are discovered
Insurance complications and warranty exclusions for pre-existing conditions
Code violations that stall final inspections and the certificate of occupancy
Legal disputes between buyers and builders over who pays for treatment

Choosing the right commercial pest control company is important, too. Builders, contractors, and homeowners trust the approach we have at Cedar Pest Control because it meets International Code Council standards, qualifies for LEED certification points, and satisfies lending institution requirements for termite protection.

How We Protect Construction Sites Without Slowing You Down

We install termite protection around your construction timeline with zero downtime for your crew. The Sentricon system goes in at final grade—no waiting for treatments to dry, no rescheduling framing, and no weather delays holding up progress. Our commercial exterminators work evenings and weekends when needed, so your project stays on schedule and your workers stay productive.

We place in-ground bait stations around the foundation perimeter, targeting foraging zones where termites search for food sources. The Always Active bait eliminates entire colonies by disrupting molting, which stops reproduction and kills workers, soldiers, and the queen. You get documentation for lenders, buyers, and inspectors showing professional-grade termite protection is in place. Our treatments use EPA-recognized products approved for residential and commercial applications.

Prevent Termites from Ruining Your Construction Project

Prevention works best when you stay ahead of the problem. Catching termite risks early saves you thousands in repairs and keeps your project on schedule. Here's how to maintain termite protection through construction and beyond:

Store lumber and building materials away from the foundation during the build
Direct drainage away from foundation walls to reduce soil moisture
Remove construction debris, stumps, and wood scraps after framing wraps
Schedule annual inspections to monitor bait stations and check for new activity
Maintain proper grading around the structure to prevent water accumulation near walls

Following these steps protects your investment and keeps your Sentricon system working at full strength. Small prevention habits during construction save you from major headaches after move-in.

Service Plans Designed for DIYers and Construction Companies

New construction projects need protection that lasts beyond move-in day. We install the Sentricon system during construction and provide annual monitoring to maintain your coverage. Each visit includes a full station inspection, bait replacement when needed, and a structural check for new termite activity. Consistent service keeps your warranty valid, satisfies mortgage lender requirements, and protects your property value for years to come.
