Always Treat Before You Repair
Replacing damaged wood while an active termite infestation remains is a waste of money. Termites will continue eating the new wood within weeks. The correct sequence is always: free inspection → eliminate the infestation → clearance → repair. Our team handles this entire process so nothing gets missed.
Types of Termite Damage We Repair
Fascia & Eaves
The most common drywood termite damage site — exposed fascia boards and eave framing are prime entry points. Repair typically involves section replacement of fascia, soffit panels, and rafter tails.
Window & Door Frames
Window and door frames are major termite entry points and common infestation sites. Damage ranges from surface galleries to complete frame replacement depending on extent.
Subfloor & Floor Joists
Subterranean termites cause the most severe subfloor damage. Signs include soft spots, sagging, and squeaking floors. Repairs range from sistering joists to full subfloor section replacement.
Attic Beams & Rafters
Attic framing is a primary drywood termite hotspot in Southern California. Damage to rafters, collar ties, and ridge boards can compromise roof structure over time.
Wall Framing
Interior structural damage from long-term infestation may affect studs and plates behind drywall. Identified during inspection and repaired after treatment clearance.
Wood Rot & Fungal Decay
Often found alongside termite damage — moisture-damaged wood is both a termite attractant and a separate structural concern. We assess and address both during the same project.
How the Repair Process Works
Free Inspection
Our licensed inspector assesses your property — identifying all active infestations, existing damage, and conditions that need correction. You receive a written report categorizing findings into Section 1 (treatment required) and Section 2 (conditions to monitor).
Eliminate the Infestation First
Treatment is completed and a clearance issued before any repair work begins. Depending on the infestation, this may involve tent fumigation, orange oil injection, heat treatment, or spot treatment. We'll explain the right option for your situation.
Our Licensed Team Performs the Repairs
After clearance, our licensed repair team performs all termite damage repair work directly — structural framing, subfloor, fascia, window frames, and cosmetic repairs. The same company that inspected and treated your home completes the repair, meaning one point of contact, one warranty, and no handoff to outside parties. In the rare case that termite damage extends into non-termite scope — electrical, plumbing, or roofing — we'll identify that upfront so you can engage the appropriate licensed trade for that specific work.

Termite Damage Repair FAQ
Does homeowners insurance cover termite damage repair?
No. Standard homeowners insurance policies exclude termite damage — insurers classify it as a preventable maintenance issue, not a sudden accidental event. This makes early detection critical. The longer an infestation goes untreated, the more costly the repair.
Do I need to treat termites before repairing the damage?
Yes — always treat first. Replacing damaged wood while an active infestation remains means termites will eat the new wood within weeks. The correct sequence is: inspection → eliminate the infestation → clearance → repair. Our licensed team handles this entire process — one company, single point of contact throughout.
How long does termite damage repair take?
Minor repairs (fascia, window trim) typically take 1–2 days. Moderate structural repairs (subfloor sections, attic framing) take 2–5 days. Severe structural damage requiring joist or beam replacement can take 1–2 weeks. All timelines depend on materials, access, and permit requirements.
Can I repair termite damage myself?
Minor cosmetic repairs — replacing a small section of fascia or exterior trim — can be DIY projects if the infestation has been treated and cleared and you're comfortable with basic carpentry. For anything structural — floor joists, support beams, wall studs, roof framing — our licensed team handles that work directly. Structural repairs in California require permits and inspections; this isn't DIY territory regardless of who does the work. If you're weighing whether to handle a cosmetic repair yourself or have us do it, we can advise after the inspection once the full damage scope is documented.
