Termite Control & Inspections in Conway, SC

The CL-100 is South Carolina's official Wood Infestation Report, the termite letter most buyers, sellers, and lenders require before a home closes. It documents any active wood-destroying organisms and related moisture or damage. If you're buying or selling in the Conway area, you'll almost certainly need one.

Both nest in the soil and attack wood, but Formosan subterranean termites, present in parts of coastal SC, build much larger colonies and cause damage faster. Both are treated with soil barriers and baiting, but Formosan activity calls for especially prompt, thorough treatment.

The two main methods are a liquid termiticide barrier applied to the soil around and under the structure, and in-ground bait stations that colonies feed on and carry back to the nest. Often we use a combination, matched to your home's construction and the infestation.

A termite bond is a renewable agreement that keeps your treatment monitored and re-serviced. Depending on the bond, it covers re-treatment and sometimes damage repair if termites return. In our climate it's strongly recommended, not optional peace of mind.

It varies widely with the home's size, construction, and infestation, but most termite treatments run an estimated $449 to $1,400, with bonds and CL-100 inspections priced separately. We give you a firm quote after inspecting.

Annually, at minimum, in coastal South Carolina. The pressure is high enough here that yearly inspection is the accepted standard for catching activity before it becomes costly structural damage.

No. An inspection looks for evidence, identifies likely entry points, and records accessible conditions. Treatment is the work chosen after those findings, such as a liquid soil application, bait stations, or a combination. An inspection can also find old damage without proving that termites are active now, which is why the distinction matters.

The answer depends on where activity is found, whether the home has a slab or crawl space, where soil can be reached, and whether an earlier treatment is still in place. The licensed pro who inspects the property should explain why a liquid treatment, bait system, monitoring plan, or combined approach fits those conditions.

Ask what evidence was found, which areas will be treated, whether drilling or trenching is expected, how follow-up checks work, and what the bond or service agreement actually covers. Re-treatment and damage-repair terms are not the same in every agreement, so they should be clear in writing.

Yes. Monitoring may be part of a baiting plan, a renewable bond, or a separate follow-up schedule. The written agreement should state how often the property is checked, what happens if activity returns, and whether re-treatment is included.

Most homeowners pay an estimated $449–$1400 per treatment for termite control & inspections here. Because winters are mild and there is no real off-season, activity that has been running for months costs more to knock down than something caught in week one. We put the figure in writing after the free inspection, never over the phone as a firm price.
