The right system depends on the construction, the soil, the access and whether termites are already in the building. The inspection answers all four; the quote is fixed before anyone picks up a trenching spade.
| System | Best for | Lasts | Warranty | From |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chemical barrier (Termidor) | Existing homes on slab or stumps | 8+ years | 8 years | $3,900 |
| Physical barrier | New builds, extensions, renovations | Life of the building | Life of structure | Quoted at frame stage |
| Reticulation system | Homes that want re-charging without excavation | Recharged every 8 years | 8 years per charge | $4,600 |
| Baiting & monitoring | Where a barrier is not practical, or as a second line | Ongoing with Termite Shield | Re-treatment warranty | $2,900 |

See the plans →Termidor is non-repellent: termites cannot detect it, walk through the treated zone and carry it back to the colony. That is why it is the barrier most Melbourne specialists install and why it carries an 8-year warranty. We trench and treat the full perimeter, drill and inject under paths and slab edges, and treat penetrations and stumps — then issue the certificate your insurer or purchaser asks for.
