Pre-Construction Termite Barriers Across Revesby
What we cover in Revesby, and how quickly we can get there.
We treat termites right across 2212. Revesby is roughly 19.6 km south-west of the city, which puts it well inside the Canterbury-Bankstown run our technicians work. We run Revesby on a regular route, and same-day attendance is usually available.
Our Revesby work takes in the streets by Amour Park and Revesby Village Centre, through to Condell Park Shopping Centre at the other end.
Under Canterbury-Bankstown, we cover Revesby and Padstow, Panania and Condell Park alike. The building stock is close-packed, so we look at what the property adjoins before deciding where product goes.
Most Revesby bookings come in as terraces and semis where the problem has come through a shared wall. Say which one applies when you call 1300 313 373 and the technician will have the right products on the van.
Revesby station and Padstow station are on the same round, which means every part of 2212 is within our area.
When you book, we confirm the 2212 run the day before and give you an arrival time rather than a window. If we are already out at Padstow or Panania that morning, we will usually offer you the earlier slot.

OVERVIEW
Pre-Construction Termite Barriers Done Right the First Time
It is not guidance. It is the benchmark a private certifier assesses against, which is why we install to the approved plan rather than to habit.
Every pipe and conduit through the slab is a path. Each one needs its own collar or sealed detail, and the ones most often missed on Revesby builds are the wet-area penetrations - shower wastes and bath traps.
If a system is going to fail it fails at a detail, not across the whole footprint. That is why we photograph each penetration and each stage as it is completed.
- A fixed price quoted from the plans you send
- Installed in stages that follow your build program
- A physical system, a chemical system, or both together
- Durable notice and certificate for the certifier
SYSTEMS WE INSTALL
Termite Barrier Systems We Install in Revesby
Photos from our own Sydney installations, not stock images. We recommend the right mix for your slab design, site and budget.
Full Under-Slab Membrane
A termite-resistant physical layer across the prepared ground, installed before the pour and covering the whole slab footprint.
Penetration Collars
Collars sealed to every plumbing pipe, conduit and service that passes through the slab. These are the most common hidden entry points for termites.
Perimeter & Slab Edge Barrier
A physical barrier around the slab edge and into the wall cavity, which stops termites building concealed tunnels up the outside of the slab.
Chemical Soil Barrier & Reticulation
APVMA-registered termiticide applied to the soil, with the option of a reticulation pipe network so the barrier can be recharged later without digging.
Suspended Floors & Piers
On a sloping or elevated site, the bearers, piers and suspended timber floor are all protected.
Retaining Walls & Complex Sites
Sydney sites bring retaining walls, sandstone excavation, step-downs and cut-and-fill, each of which needs specific detailing.
WHY DURING THE BUILD
Why Install During Construction in Revesby
Once the slab is poured, the areas termites use most are sealed away for good.
A Fraction of the Cost
Installing at construction costs a fraction of retrofitting a system, let alone repairing termite damage later.
Required by the NCC
Under the NCC, Class 1 homes and Class 10 outbuildings with termite-susceptible primary building elements require a compliant termite management system.
Hidden Entry Points Sealed
Before the pour is the only opportunity to fully protect the pipe penetrations and slab joints.
Whole-Footprint Protection
An under-slab system protects areas no post-construction treatment can reach.
No Occupation Certificate Delays
Your certifier must have the installation certificate and durable notice before the Occupation Certificate can issue.
Resale Confidence
Buyers, inspectors and lenders all respond to documented, compliant termite protection.

COMPARE SYSTEMS
Physical vs Chemical Termite Barriers in Revesby
Both approaches can comply with AS 3660.1. Many Sydney builds use a combination.
| System | How it works | Durability & upkeep | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Physical membrane, mesh or graded stone | Membrane, stainless mesh or graded stone forming a layer termites cannot pass, beneath the slab or around the perimeter | Designed to last as long as the slab itself if undisturbed; no top-ups | Slab-on-ground construction and non-chemical preferences |
| Penetration collars | Each pipe and conduit through the slab is sealed with a physical collar | Long-lasting, assuming correct installation before the pour | Every slab, usually in combination with a perimeter system |
| Chemical soil barrier | A treated zone created with termiticide in the soil below and around the building | The label and the soil conditions set the service life; it can be re-applied | Builds with tighter budgets, and some complex sites |
| Reticulation system | Pipework laid before the paving so termiticide can be pumped back into the soil later | Rechargeable for the life of the building, with no need to lift paths | Houses ringed by paving or landscaping |
| Baiting (post-construction) | In-ground stations that monitor and then eliminate the colony | The stations require servicing on a regular schedule | Existing homes - see termite control |
INSTALLATION STAGES
How a Pre-Construction Barrier Is Installed in Revesby
Termite barriers are installed in stages that follow the build, not in a single visit.
01
Plan Review & Fixed Quote
Send through the plans and the slab details and you get back a recommended system with a fixed price against every stage.
02
Stage 1: Before the Pour
Penetration collars to all services first, then the under-slab membrane or chemical treatment once the site is ready.
03
Stage 2: Slab Edge & Cavity
Barriers to the perimeter and cavity go in alongside the brickwork or cladding, eliminating any slab-edge gap.
04
Stage 3: Final Perimeter
Where it is specified, the chemical perimeter or reticulation system is finished around the completed building before any paving or landscaping goes in.
05
Durable Notice & Certificate
A durable notice goes into the meter box to record the system, with the installation certificate to the builder and certifier.
06
Handover Advice
At handover the owner is given maintenance advice and the recommended inspection schedule that keeps the system effective.

FOR BUILDERS
For Builders, Developers & Owner-Builders
Coordinating with your trades
We fit in around the plumber's set-out and the pour. Tell us once services are in and the collar installation is confirmed before the pour inspection.
- Penetration collars fitted before the pour
- Slab edge and cavity barrier going in with the walls
- The perimeter finished before paving starts
Multi-unit and repeat work
Developers and volume builders work to consistent pricing with a single contact and documentation for every dwelling.
Avoiding certification delays
Delays at occupation certificate stage usually come down to a missing durable notice or unclear records. We provide the complete set at once.
AFTER HANDOVER
How to Keep Your Termite Barrier Effective in Revesby
A barrier only works if it stays intact and visible. Homeowners should follow these points for the life of the building.
- The inspection zone needs at least 75 mm of slab edge left visible - keep soil, mulch and paving off it
- Keep garden beds and stacked timber away from the house
- Make sure weep holes are not rendered over or blocked with debris
- Repair leaking taps, downpipes and hot water units near the building
- Before drilling through the slab, tell the builder or the installer
- Check that new pipes or extensions are protected too
- Timber pest inspections at least every 12 months
- Keep the durable notice and the installation certificate in your property records
PRICING FACTORS
What Affects the Cost of a Termite Barrier in Revesby
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Slab size and perimeter run | Larger slabs need more membrane and perimeter protection, and more labour |
| System type | There is a real price difference between under-slab physical, perimeter-only, chemical and reticulation systems |
| Number of penetrations | A collar is needed for each plumbing and electrical penetration through the slab |
| Complexity of the site | Retaining walls, step-downs, sandstone cuts and suspended floors each add detailing |
| Number of visits | The staged install follows your build program, and multi-dwelling sites can be combined |

FAQ
Pre-Construction Termite Barriers Questions, Answered
Everything you need to know before you book. Still unsure? Call us — we're happy to help.
Get a Free QuoteWhat does pre-construction termite barriers cost in Revesby?
Barriers are quoted off your plans and slab details. Two things move it: how big the place is, and how far it has already spread. We work that out on the phone or on site and tell you the figure before anything starts in Revesby. You get the AS 3660.1 certificate and the durable notice for the meter box.
How quickly can you get to Revesby?
Same-day attendance is usually available. Revesby is about 19.6 km south-west of the CBD in the Canterbury-Bankstown, and we give you a firm arrival time rather than an all-day window.
Why are termites such a problem in Revesby?
The housing stock is old and joined together. A shared wall cavity or a continuous sub-floor lets termites travel from one property to the next, which is why your neighbour matters.
What kind of buildings do you work on around Revesby?
Joined housing with ageing drainage. That combination decides where product goes far more than the floor plan does.
Do you work with agents and strata managers in Revesby?
Yes. We work in houses, units, strata blocks, rentals and commercial premises across Revesby 2212, and we provide the written report agents and strata managers ask for.
Is the treatment safe around children and pets?
Yes, when it is applied properly. We use registered products at label rates and tell you which areas to keep clear and for how long. Mention pets, fish tanks or allergies when you book.
Do we have to go out while you work?
Most of the time you can carry on as normal. If a particular area needs to be empty we will flag it when we arrive and it is rarely more than a couple of hours.
How much time should I allow?
Usually between one and two hours on site. Bigger properties and heavier infestations take more, and that is included in the quote rather than added afterwards.
What happens if it is not fixed?
You get the AS 3660.1 certificate and the durable notice for the meter box. A return visit inside that period does not cost you anything.
Which areas around Revesby do you cover?
Yes - we work right across the Canterbury-Bankstown area, which takes in Revesby and the suburbs around it.
