Professional termite barrier repairs after renovations, extensions and building work.
Whether you're renovating your home, building an extension, installing a new pool or completing plumbing or electrical work, existing termite protection can be affected.
Many building projects involve cutting concrete, adding new penetrations or constructing new slabs against an existing home. These works can disturb physical or chemical termite management systems, creating areas that may require professional repair or reinstatement.
Results Termite & Pest Control works with homeowners, builders, renovation companies, plumbers, electricians and certifiers throughout Brisbane to repair existing termite barriers and install new protection where required.
Has Your Renovation Affected Your Termite Protection?
Many renovations involve cutting concrete, installing new plumbing, electrical conduits or constructing new slabs against an existing home. These works can disturb or penetrate the termite management system protecting your property.
If your termite barrier has been affected, repairing or reinstating the system is often necessary to restore continuous protection and, where required, support compliance with current building requirements.
If you're unsure whether your renovation has affected your termite protection, we can assess the completed work and recommend the most appropriate solution.

Maintaining Continuous Termite Protection
A termite management system is designed to provide continuous protection around your home.
When sections of that system are removed, cut or penetrated during renovations or building work, untreated entry points can be created that may allow concealed termite access into the building.
Repairing or reinstating the affected sections helps restore the integrity of the termite management system and maintain long-term protection for your home.
Working With Builders, Trades and Certifiers
Protecting Brisbane Homes for More Than 35 Years
We regularly work alongside builders, owner-builders, plumbers, electricians, concreters, landscapers and building certifiers during renovation and extension projects.
Completing termite protection while construction is underway often provides the best opportunity to maintain continuous protection before concrete, paving, landscaping or finished surfaces are installed.
By becoming involved early, repairs can usually be completed more efficiently while helping avoid unnecessary disruption or more complex remedial work later.

Installing Termite Protection Before New Concrete
If you're constructing a new patio, driveway, extension, garage, pathway, shed slab or pool surround, planning termite protection before the concrete is poured is usually the simplest and most effective approach.
When new concrete is placed against an existing home, the original termite management system often needs to be extended or connected to the new construction.
Installing the appropriate termite protection before construction is completed helps maintain continuous protection and is generally far easier than attempting to retrofit protection once the slab has been poured.
We regularly work with homeowners, builders and concreters throughout Brisbane before new concrete is installed.
Compliance, Certification and Form 43 Requirements
Many renovations, extensions and new building work require termite management to comply with building requirements.
Where termite protection has been affected during construction, repairs or reinstatement may form part of the process before a Form 43 Aspect Certificate can be issued.
If your builder or certifier has advised that termite barrier repairs are required, we can inspect the affected area and recommend an appropriate solution.
Not sure if you need a Form 43?
We can assess your renovation, confirm whether termite management applies under the Building Code, and tell you exactly what's needed to get a compliant system signed off by your certifier.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is HomeGuard®?
HomeGuard® is a physical termite management system commonly installed during the construction of new homes. It uses termite-resistant materials and specialised components to help protect vulnerable entry points, such as slab penetrations and construction joints. If the system is disturbed during renovations or extensions, repairs or reinstatement may be required to maintain continuous termite protection.
What is Termseal?
Termseal® is an Australian manufacturer of termite management systems used in residential and commercial construction. Their range includes products such as termite collars, perimeter barriers and other physical termite protection systems designed to help prevent concealed termite entry into buildings.
What are termite collars?
Termite collars are physical barrier components installed around plumbing pipes and other service penetrations before a concrete slab is poured. They help protect one of the most common entry points termites use to access a building. If plumbing is added or altered during renovations, new termite collars or alternative protection may be required.
Yes, in many situations, termite collars or alternative approved termite management systems can be installed after construction, depending on the type of penetration and access available. We can assess the affected area and recommend the most appropriate solution for your renovation.
