Why Termite Protection Matters More Than You Think (Especially for Older Homes)
If you’re a homeowner—especially one living in an older property—termite protection isn’t something to put off. At Freedom Termite and Pest Control, we’ve seen firsthand how quickly termites can cause costly damage and how critical it is to stay ahead of the problem.
Termite Treatments Have a Lifespan
Many people don’t realize that most termite treatments are only effective for about 10 years. After that, the product breaks down and loses its ability to protect your home. If you’re living in a home that hasn’t been treated in a decade or more, it may be time to take action.
Worried about the cost? You’re not alone—and we get it. That’s why we offer flexible payment plans to help homeowners who are experiencing sticker shock. Protecting your biggest investment shouldn’t break the bank.
Communicate Changes Around Your Home
Planning landscaping or home improvements? Be sure to let your termite provider know. Changes to the soil or structure around your home can affect the treatment barrier and create new vulnerabilities. A quick call to your pest control company can save you thousands in potential repairs.
Termite Damage Repair: What You Need to Know
Let’s be honest—many termite companies don’t offer damage repair guarantees. Why? Because even the best treatments can’t prevent infestations when homes have conducive conditions like excess moisture or wood-to-ground contact. That’s why we always emphasize prevention and proper communication.
If you're remodeling or doing construction, it’s a smart time to integrate termite prevention into the project. Treat the new materials before they go in—it’s far more effective than trying to fix things after damage occurs.
Trust and Experience Matter
We’ve heard from customers who’ve had less-than-great experiences with other providers—and it’s frustrating. At Freedom, we believe in clear communication and building trust. Many of our customers are referrals from friends and family, and we take that trust seriously.
If you choose to move forward, we can provide you with an estimate for termite elimination or prevention—whichever you prefer. The good news is that both options are priced the same, with the main difference being the potential $3,000 to $10,000 in structural repairs you might face if an infestation is left unchecked. At Freedom Termite & Pest Control, inc.your peace of mind is our priority, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
