What our clients say about our work
Thank you MacCotter’s. You came to my home for a termite inspection and I would like to thank you for your professional but friendly approach. I would also like to thank you for your patience with all my questions (yep, I asked a whole heap) and your consideration with your answers. I have had termite inspections over the years but none so thorough as you provided. Your inspection report was also very detailed. You were prompt & obviously very experienced. You have been able to provide me with some peace of mind about my home and that is worth so much more than what you charged for your inspection. I absolutely recommend you to anyone who wants great service from people who care! Thanks so much.

A ‘Termite Treatment Zone (Termite Barrier as they are commonly known)’ refers to a chemical treatment installed into the soil around the perimeter of your home and or any buildings on your property. The advantage of termite / white ant treatment zone over other termite management systems is the long term protection it offers. As long as they remain undisturbed they will silently protect your home for up to 8 to ten years depending on treatment used.
