New Construction Pre-Treatment Services in San Diego
Protect Your New Home from Pests
Choosing countertops, flooring, and paint colors may seem like the most exciting parts of building your dream home, but one of the most crucial decisions affects what happens behind the walls—before you ever move in. New construction pest control is a proactive step that protects your investment from termites, rodents, and ants before they can invade.
The area’s mild climate makes it a year-round hotspot for pests. Subterranean termites thrive in coastal communities like La Jolla, while drywood termites are common inland from Poway to Escondido. Without San Diego pre-treatment, these pests can cause serious damage to your new home soon after construction is finished.
Kilter Termite and Pest Control has been protecting homes since 1992. With many years of experience, we help homeowners and builders make informed decisions that safeguard comfort and value. Whether you're constructing a custom home or overseeing a large development, our team offers proven protection that integrates seamlessly into your project.
A Professional Process That Respects Your Schedule and Your Builder
One of the main concerns during new construction is preventing delays. Our new construction pest control process in San Diego is designed to align perfectly with your building timeline, keeping things on schedule while offering long-lasting protection for your home.
The steps involved include:
- Consultation and planning – We review your blueprints and meet with you or your contractor. Then, we develop a treatment plan customized to your property and construction timeline.
- Seamless coordination – Our team works directly with your site supervisor to find the best time for treatment. We step in after the foundation is finished and framing is up, but before insulation and drywall go in.
- Efficient and documented treatment – Our technicians deliver treatments quickly and effectively for minimal disruption to other trades on site. We also provide detailed documentation for your records and any city requirements, making sure the process runs smoothly and stays fully compliant.
Over the years, we have built custom homes in Rancho Santa Fe, completed infill projects in North Park, and undertaken large-scale developments along the I-15 and 78 corridors. With experience on various job sites since 1992, our goal has been consistent: to be the most dependable and hassle-free partner your builder can rely on.
Protect Your Investment, Prevent Costly Future Damage
Pre-construction termite treatment is a wise financial decision. The cost of termite pre-treatment in San Diego is only a small part of what you could spend on structural repairs after an infestation. Rodent exclusion and preventative pest barriers follow the same concept: spend a little now to prevent costly repairs later.
Our treatments come with warranty coverage, including up to five years of protection for subterranean termite treatments. This warranty is more than just paperwork. It’s a benefit that adds real value to your home.
We design our treatments for long-term protection. Thus, your investment remains secure during the first months after move-in and many years afterward. When you choose us, you’re opting for a service that protects your family’s comfort and financial stability.

A Multi-Layered Strategy for Total Pest Prevention
Every new San Diego home encounters unique pest challenges based on its location and environment. Our multi-layered method tackles major threats before your walls are closed and your foundation sealed.
We offer:
- Subterranean termite defense – Our team applies a product to the wood framing at the foundation level. This treatment bonds with the wood, creating a permanent barrier against termites that travel through the soil. Given the area’s high termite activity, this step is crucial in preventing infestations that often go unnoticed initially.
- Drywood termite shield – We spray all exposed wood framing throughout the structure. This method prevents untreated areas where drywood termites could establish colonies. It’s a proactive defense that helps keep your home’s frame secure from the inside out.
- Proactive rodent exclusion – Rodents frequently enter through gaps around plumbing and electrical lines. Before sealing these areas with walls, we fill them with concrete and specialized exclusion materials. This step is especially crucial for homes near canyons, open spaces, and older neighborhoods where rodent activity is common.
- Preventative pest barrier – Our San Diego preventative pest treatment team treats exposed areas of your home’s structure to deter ants and pests. This barrier protects your new home from day one.
Our technicians engage in ongoing education to stay current with the latest pest control techniques. We apply the treatments and take the time to explain the “why” behind each step, empowering you with the knowledge to make confident decisions.
