Termite control in Makkah
Although Makkah is hot and dry on most days, termites can appear in older buildings with woodwork, around gardens and leaks, and in warehouses storing cardboard and wood. The heavy construction in new districts also makes pre-construction soil treatment a question many owners and contractors ask.
What sets termite control in Makkah apart?
The inspection focuses on woodwork in older buildings, leaks and moisture around foundations, and storerooms. In new projects, soil treatment is coordinated with the contractor before foundations and floors are poured, and a report or certificate is requested.
