What is included
Inspection led pest control for homes and businesses, using products chosen for the site and the people in it, and a written report after every visit. Nobody wants to make this call, and nobody wants a van with a large insect painted on the side parked outside their villa. We understand both. Our technicians find the source first, treat only where it is needed and tell you plainly when each room is safe to use again.
- Treatment timed with the contractor before the slab is cast
- Termiticide applied to the levelled soil, foundation edges and pipe entries
- Drilling and injection along the walls of existing buildings
- Treated areas, dates and materials recorded for the owner
How we carry out pre construction termite treatment
Subterranean termites live in the soil across much of Abu Dhabi and reach timber through hairline gaps in a slab, along service pipes or behind skirting. On a new villa or an extension, the simplest moment to stop them is before the concrete goes down. Our pest control team agrees the timing with your contractor, usually once the ground is levelled and compacted and the plumbing sleeves are in, so the treated soil is not disturbed by later digging.
The termiticide is applied evenly across the soil under the slab, with extra attention to foundation edges, pipe entries and expansion joints, where termites look for a way in. For an existing home, holes are drilled at intervals along the walls or through the floor beside them, the treatment is injected and the holes are sealed and made good. Each area treated is recorded with the date and what was used. Where the community or developer asks for documentation, we prepare it.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Inspection and identification. A technician inspects kitchens, bathrooms, drains, voids, stores and the garden, identifies the pest and finds where it is coming from. Treating without knowing the source is why problems return.
- Treatment plan and quotation in writing. You receive a written plan naming the method, the products and the number of visits, with a quotation before anything is applied.
- Targeted treatment. Gel baits, residual treatments at entry and harbourage points, dusts in voids and bait stations are used where each one works best. Food, toys, pets and fish tanks are protected first.
- Proofing advice. We show you the gaps, drains and damp spots that let the pests in, and what to seal or change so the treatment lasts.
- Report and follow up. The report lists what was found, what was used and when each room is safe to use again. A follow up visit is booked where the treatment calls for one.

Pre Construction Termite Treatment in Al Qurm: what we plan for
Al Qurm takes its name from the mangroves along the shores of Abu Dhabi island. Eastern Mangroves has apartment buildings beside the promenade, the marina and the hotel, with the Mangrove One villas nearby. Al Gurm Resort and Al Gurm West are waterfront villa communities among protected mangroves, many homes with a pool and pier, while Al Qurm Gardens and Al Qurm Compound hold gated family villas.
Lakes, lagoons and water features give mosquitoes and midges somewhere to breed. We treat standing water, drains and the planting along the water as well as the home.
The villa communities have gated entry, so the resident registers our team and vehicle with security in advance. Apartment buildings need a work permit and a service lift booking. Exterior work may need master community approval; this is identified at the site visit and we prepare the paperwork.

Questions about pre construction termite treatment in Al Qurm
What does pre construction termite treatment include?
Soil treatment for new villas and extensions before the slab is poured, and drilling treatment for existing buildings, coordinated with your contractor and recorded. The work includes treatment timed with the contractor before the slab is cast; termiticide applied to the levelled soil, foundation edges and pipe entries; drilling and injection along the walls of existing buildings.
When should the contractor call you in?
Ideally once the ground under the slab is levelled and compacted and the services are laid, but before the polythene sheet and the concrete. We agree the date with the site team so the treatment is not washed out by curing water or disturbed by trenching.
Can an existing villa be treated without lifting the floor?
It can, by drilling. Small holes are made along the inside or outside of the walls, the treatment is injected into the soil beneath, and the holes are filled and finished. Marble and patterned floors are drilled at grout lines where possible, agreed with you first.
How much does pre construction termite treatment cost in Al Qurm?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: the type of pest and how established it is; size and type of the property, including the garden. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides pre construction termite treatment in Al Qurm?

How long does pre construction termite treatment take?
Typically 45 to 90 minutes for most apartments and 2 to 3 hours for most villas, per visit. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Do we need to leave the home during treatment?
For gel and bait treatments, no. For spray treatments we ask you to stay out of the treated rooms until they are dry and aired, usually a few hours.
Will the pests come back?
They can if the source is still there, which is why we inspect first and give proofing advice. If activity returns within the period stated in your quotation, we return at no charge.
Do you offer annual pest control contracts?
Yes. An annual contract covers scheduled visits through the year and call outs between them, for homes, restaurants, offices and buildings.
How do your crews get access to Al Qurm?
The villa communities have gated entry, so the resident registers our team and vehicle with security in advance. Apartment buildings need a work permit and a service lift booking. Exterior work may need master community approval; this is identified at the site visit and we prepare the paperwork.
How do you deal with mould in a villa near the mangroves?
The moisture source comes first, often an AC drain, a roof leak or poor ventilation. The growth is treated, the area dried and sealed, and we advise on ventilation or dehumidifying to slow it coming back.
How do I choose a company for pre construction termite treatment in Al Qurm?
Ask four things: who employs the people who will come, whether the scope is written down before work starts, how the result is checked, and what happens if something is missed.
