Sri Skandan Construction provides certified, scientific pest and termite control in Tamil Nadu, deploying government-approved termiticides and advanced piping reticulation systems to safeguard properties.
Subterranean termites cause billions of rupees in structural timber and interior damage across Tamil Nadu's warm climate. As a licensed civil engineering firm providing pest and termite control in Tamil Nadu, we integrate anti-termite soil barriers compliant with IS 6313 (Part 2 & Part 3) during building construction, as well as drill-and-inject post-construction barriers for existing properties.
The most effective time to protect a building from subterranean termites is during foundation excavation. We treat the bottom and sides of foundation trenches, the backfill earth adjacent to masonry, and the sub-floor soil prior to laying the PCC concrete bed with non-repellent, long-residual termiticides (Chlorpyrifos / Imidacloprid) that create a continuous, lethal chemical perimeter under the entire plinth.
For modern villas and residences seeking lifetime termite immunity without needing to drill floor tiles in the future, we install specialized perforated porous HDPE piping networks along the plinth beam perimeter before floor tiling. This system features external brass refilling ports, enabling chemical replenishment from outside the building every 3 to 5 years without disturbing interior living spaces.
For existing homes showing active termite infestations—such as mud tubes along walls or hollow-sounding door frames—our technicians drill precision 12mm holes along the wall-floor perimeter, inject high-pressure termiticide emulsions to destroy the subterranean colony queen, and seal the injection holes with color-matched tile grout.
In accordance with IS 6313 Part 2, treatment is carried out in four distinct stages: 1) bottom and sides of foundation trenches, 2) masonry backfill soil, 3) plinth sub-floor soil before PCC casting, and 4) along the external perimeter apron wall.
A reticulation system consists of a network of perforated elastomeric pipes laid beneath the floor along the foundation walls before flooring. When termiticide needs replenishment in future years, it is pumped through external junction ports outside the home, eliminating the need to drill holes into your expensive floor tiles.
Yes. We exclusively utilize government-approved, low-odor termiticides (such as Imidacloprid) that bond tightly with soil particles and do not emit volatile fumes, ensuring total safety for your family and pets.
Our pre-construction anti-termite soil barrier treatments come with a comprehensive 5 to 10-year warranty, backed by a formal engineering certificate recognized by banks and home insurance providers.
