Pest control for pre-construction sites

PCAT is the single most cost-effective termite intervention for any UAE villa or low-rise. We apply Termidor SC or Premise 200 to the substrate before concrete pouring — saturating soil under and around the slab so subterranean termites cannot reach the structure. It is a one-time treatment, carried out at the only stage when the soil beneath the slab can still be reached, and we back it with a 10-year warranty.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

The questions pre-construction sites operators ask before signing a service contract.

What is pre-construction anti-termite treatment (PCAT) and why is it done before the slab pour?
PCAT is a chemical soil barrier applied to the substrate before concrete is poured, saturating the ground under and around the future slab so subterranean termites cannot reach the structure from below. It has to be done at this stage because once the slab is cast you can no longer treat the soil beneath it — the only access is gone. It is the single most cost-effective termite intervention for any UAE villa or low-rise.
How long does the treatment last and what warranty do I get?
We back a correctly applied PCAT barrier with a 10-year warranty, issued as a certificate to the contractor or developer for the project handover file. The treatment is recorded with photographs and GPS-tagged evidence, so there is verifiable proof the barrier was applied to the full footprint.
Does PCAT meet engineering handover requirements?
Yes. The work is carried out by a Dubai Municipality-licensed pest control company and produces the documentation engineers and developers expect at handover: the treatment certificate, the 10-year warranty certificate, and the photo and GPS-tagged record of the application. That gives the developer defensible proof that anti-termite measures were completed before the slab pour.
Is PCAT really cheaper than treating termites after the building is finished?
Significantly. PCAT is a one-time application while the soil is still open, whereas post-construction termite remediation means drilling through finished floors, injecting under slabs and repairing structural and cosmetic damage — many times the price and far more disruptive. We quote per project after a site survey, and can price per square foot or per square metre to match your BOQ. Which chemical we use (Termidor SC or Premise 200) is selected at the project survey based on soil and site conditions to give the longest-lasting barrier.
