Repairing the damage
Hold the repairs until elimination is confirmed - taking out the timber early removes the bait. Then have a builder assess the structural members, bearers and studs and roof timbers included.

Termite Control Across Windsor
Local technicians, fixed prices and a written report for every job in Windsor.
If you are in Windsor or anywhere else in 2756, you are in our Penrith & the Outer West patch, 45.9 km north-west of the CBD. We travel out to Windsor on planned runs through the Penrith & the Outer West, so booking a day ahead gets you the best slot.
Our Windsor work takes in the streets by Windsor station and Paine Park, through to Windsor Golf Course at the other end.
Penrith City and Hawkesbury is the council area for Windsor, and we treat Windsor Downs, Vineyard and Marsden Park on the same schedule. With acreage the problem is often outside the house entirely - sheds, woodpiles and outbuildings get inspected too.
The termite calls we take from Windsor are mostly rural-residential homes where it started in a stable or a feed store. If yours is one of them, mention it when you ring 1300 313 373 - it changes what the technician brings.
Every part of 2756 is covered as standard.

OVERVIEW
Termite Control That Targets the Colony in Windsor
They eat from the inside out and leave the paint film intact, so a Windsor skirting board can look perfect and sound papery when you tap it. That hollow note is often the first real evidence.
The slab edge is meant to be visible so workings show. In a lot of Windsor properties landscaping has buried it, which hands termites an invisible route in.
Termites are after cellulose, which means skirtings, architraves, door jambs, built-in wardrobes, floorboards and the paper facing on plasterboard - not just the frame. Stored cardboard and books in a Windsor garage are fair game too.
- We confirm what it is and where it is active before treating
- A bait program, a soil barrier, or the two combined
- A written record of every product and every area treated
- The warranty is confirmed in writing when you get the quote
HOW WE TREAT
Termite Treatment Methods We Use in Windsor
Photos from our own Sydney termite jobs. Most properties need one primary method, and some need two working together.
In-Ground Baiting Systems
Stations go into the ground around the building with timber inside. Termites locate it, we switch the timber for bait, and the colony is eliminated from the inside out.
Station Checks & Refills
The stations get opened, read and refilled on a regular cycle. Let that slip and the program stalls - it is the usual explanation for one that never completed.
Above-Ground Bait Placement
Where we find them working in a frame or wall lining, bait goes on over the workings themselves and the colony begins feeding the same day.
Chemical Soil Barrier
Termiticide placed into the soil around the building - trenched where there is soil, injected through drilled holes where there is concrete - forming a treated zone termites have to cross.
Subfloor & Pier Treatment
In suspended floors, the soil around piers and along the walls is included, because subfloors are where concealed activity very often begins.
Damage Assessment
We walk you through the damaged timber and record it for your builder. Repairs come after elimination is confirmed, not before.
FOUND TERMITES?
What to Do Before We Arrive in Windsor
What you do in the first day or two affects how quickly the colony can be eliminated.
Don't Spray Them
Surface spray and bombs are the worst thing to use here. The colony retreats from the treated area and you lose the access point we needed.
Don't Break Open the Workings
Mud tubes and eaten timber are best left alone. Open them up and they dry out, the termites withdraw, and the treatment takes longer.
Take Photos
Take pictures of anything you have seen and remember where. It tells us what to bring and where to start.
Look for Moisture
Check what is wetting the soil nearby: taps, hot water overflow, condensate lines. That damp is part of why they are there.
Book Promptly
Subterranean termites keep eating while you wait. Same-day and next-day inspections of active termites are available across Sydney.
Tell Your Strata Manager
In strata, termites in your lot very often involve common property, so the manager needs to hear about it early rather than late.

WHY IT MATTERS
Baiting vs Soil Barrier: Which Treatment Fits?
Both are recognised approaches for existing buildings under AS 3660.2. The right choice depends on your property.
| Consideration | Baiting system | Chemical soil barrier | Combination |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main job | Eliminates the colony feeding on the building | Creates a treated zone so termites travelling through the soil are affected | Removes the active colony and protects against new ones |
| How it is applied | Perimeter stations in the ground, plus bait placed straight onto working termites | Trenched along the footings, drilled and injected under concrete | Staged: baiting, then soil treatment after the colony is dead |
| Disturbance | Minimal: no drilling of paths or digging of garden beds | Small holes drilled in paving and later sealed; digging along gardens | Spread across staged visits |
| Upkeep | Stations checked on a regular schedule and kept as monitoring | Service life depends on the product label and site; can be re-applied | Station checks continue while the barrier works |
| Right for | Current activity, heavily paved blocks, or where chemical use needs limiting | Homes with good soil access around the footings | Heavy or repeated activity, and high-risk properties close to bush |

OUR PROCESS
From Live Termites to a Protected Home in Windsor
Termite treatment is a program over several visits, not a one-off spray.
01
Confirm Species & Extent
We confirm which termite it is and how far it has gone, following the tubing and checking roof void, subfloor and garden for the nest.
02
Written Treatment Plan
Everything goes in writing before we start - method, treatment areas, products and the follow-up schedule - at a fixed price.
03
Treat the Active Colony
Bait goes onto active workings or into in-ground stations, or termiticide is applied to the soil where termites travel.
04
Monitor Until Elimination
Follow-up visits continue until activity has stopped, checking and topping up bait each time. Colony size and season set the timeline.
05
Protect the Building
After elimination we advise on protection: a chemical soil barrier, ongoing monitoring through the stations, or a combination of the two.
06
Records & Next Inspection
Everything applied is recorded in writing, with the recommended date for your next timber pest inspection.
PRICING
What Termite Treatment Costs Depend On in Windsor
Treatment starts from $179. Your fixed quote comes after we've seen the activity.
| Factor | Why it changes the price |
|---|---|
| How far it has spread | One door frame is quick. Activity through the subfloor and into the wall frames is a much bigger job |
| Method | Product volume and labour vary considerably between above-ground baiting, in-ground stations and a full barrier |
| Access and perimeter | Long footings, restricted subfloor height and narrow passages down the side all add labour |
| Paved areas | Any path, patio or garage slab needing drilling and injection adds time over open soil |
| Return visits | A baiting program runs until the colony is eliminated, and a big colony needs more visits to get there |
| Building type | Strata buildings, commercial sites and homes with extensions or granny flats are scoped individually |

AFTER TREATMENT
Life After a Termite Treatment in Windsor
Living with bait stations
You will have in-ground stations sitting flush with locking lids. Keep them clear of mulch and concrete, leave them in place, and call before landscaping so we can relocate them.
Looking after a soil barrier
Treated soil works best left undisturbed. New garden beds, pavers or a deck against the house can break the treated zone, so call us before those works.
- Don't let soil or mulch rise above the weep holes
- Keep firewood and timber off the walls
- Fix leaks near the footings
Keeping watch
The standard, AS 3660.2, recommends an inspection at least annually and more frequently where risk is high. After a treatment, those inspections are how a new colony gets caught early.
RISK FACTORS
Conditions That Invite Termites Back in Windsor
Treatment removes the colony. These property conditions attract the next one, and most are cheap to fix.
- Mulch and soil heaped against the brickwork, concealing the slab edge
- Any tap, downpipe or overflow pipe leaking near the footings
- Air conditioner drip lines discharging onto soil beside the wall
- Leftover stumps, railway sleepers or timber scraps in the yard
- Fence posts, pergola posts or steps sitting directly in soil
- Rendered-over or obstructed weep holes in the brick walls
- Insufficient airflow under the floor, so the soil stays wet
- Firewood and leftover materials stored against the house wall
- An extension or deck added without tying into the existing protection
- Retaining walls built of timber close to the structure
SYDNEY TERMITES
Why Sydney Homes Get Attacked in Windsor
The Penrith & the Outer West has its own pattern - the properties backing onto reserve, gully or paddock see the most pressure, and those are the ones where an annual inspection genuinely earns its cost.
Termites do not respect boundaries. A neglected yard or a demolition next door in Windsor can push foraging onto your property, which is why we inspect fence lines and boundaries rather than only the house.
We are around Windsor Golf Course and the surrounding streets regularly, and we inspect every address in 2756 - including the ones the big franchises will not travel to.

FAQ
Termite Control Questions, Answered
Everything you need to know before you book. Still unsure? Call us — we're happy to help.
Get a Free QuoteWhat am I looking at for termite control in Windsor?
Termite treatment starts from $179 and a full timber pest inspection from $159. We quote on the property rather than the postcode, so a unit in Windsor and a large house are priced differently. The figure is fixed before any work starts. Treatments carry a 6-month warranty and we re-inspect annually.
What is the wait for a technician in Windsor?
We cover it on scheduled runs, so a day's notice gets you the best slot. Windsor sits roughly 45.9 km north-west of the CBD, inside our Penrith & the Outer West run, so we book a time and keep to it.
Why are termites such a problem in Windsor?
There is simply more harbourage on a block this size. Sheds, stacked timber, feed stores and open ground all hold termites populations long before the house is involved.
Is Windsor mostly houses or units for this sort of work?
Larger blocks with outbuildings, so sheds, stables and stored timber are part of the inspection rather than an afterthought.
Do you treat units and rentals in Windsor?
We do all of those. A good share of the Windsor jobs we run are tenanted or strata properties, so the written record comes as standard.
Do we need to worry about pets or children afterwards?
It is, as long as you follow what we tell you on the day - usually keeping off treated surfaces for a couple of hours. Let us know at booking about young children, pets or an aquarium.
Do I need to leave the property during treatment?
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 long will the technician be on site?
An hour to two hours covers most jobs. The size of the building and the extent of the problem are what change it.
What if the termites come back?
Treatments carry a 6-month warranty and we re-inspect annually. A return visit within the warranty period costs you nothing.
Which areas around Windsor do you cover?
We cover the whole of Windsor, from the streets around Windsor Golf Course out to the suburb boundary and on into Windsor Downs.
