New Orleans Termite Damage Repair focuses on one thing: restoring the structural wood that Formosan termites destroy in New Orleans homes. That means sill plate replacement, floor joist repair and sistering, subfloor rebuilding, and framing repair — the structural work that comes after a colony is treated. New Orleans Termite Damage Repair connects homeowners across Orleans & Jefferson Parishes with the repair side of the termite problem, separate from extermination.
What New Orleans Termite Damage Repair does
New Orleans termite damage repair rebuilds termite-damaged structural wood. The service covers the load-bearing members Formosan termites reach first in a New Orleans home — sill plates, rim and floor joists, the base of wall studs, and subflooring — along with the cosmetic finishes that get rebuilt last. New Orleans termite damage repair does not treat or exterminate termites; that is a licensed pest professional's job, and it comes first. The focus here is the structural repair that restores the home once the colony is gone.
Why New Orleans termite damage repair is its own service
Termite damage repair is a distinct trade from pest control, and in New Orleans the distinction matters more than almost anywhere. The LSU AgCenter estimates the Formosan subterranean termite causes about $300 million in property damage every year in New Orleans alone, and the Formosan subterranean termite is the most destructive insect in Louisiana. Killing a colony stops the feeding, but it does not rebuild a hollowed sill plate or a weakened joist. New Orleans termite damage repair exists to do exactly that — the structural rebuilding a pest treatment leaves undone.
