Pre-construction - new building work

It is vital to install a termite management system at the time of construction to prevent concealed termite entry. In Queensland, Australia, it is mandatory to have appropriate protection installed by a licensed company to gain final certification. The system installed needs to be “Life of Structure”. That means it is required to last 50 years.

Requirements to install a termite management system to new construction

The license for an installer is different from Post-Construction (existing structure). They need these additional qualifications:

  1. They need to be licensed through the QBCC (Queensland Building and Construction Commission) with both their Termite Management – Chemical & Termite Management – Physical.

  3. They also need to have the Unit of Competency 42 – Install Physical Termite Management System

  4. They need to be officially accredited by the manufacturer of the system/product they are installing
