Cresthaven is a central-east residential subdivision — 1970s-80s slab CBS with barrel-tile and asphalt roofs. The defining inspection feature is that irrigation and mulched landscape beds drive subterranean pressure, and the pre-construction soil treatment scope here is built around that reality. Residential pre-construction soil treatment on a Cresthaven property runs the standard owner-occupied scope: free pre-treatment inspection to confirm species and treatment scope, written scope with linear-foot or station-count pricing in plain language, treatment completed by Florida-licensed Certified Operator, and an annual warranty re-inspection cycle built into the contract. FHA-203 and VA-format documentation is available where the treatment ties to a closing-deadline window. The Cresthaven pre-construction soil treatment workflow is built around one principle: the species identification on the FDACS-13645 inspection report drives the chemistry selection, not the other way around. We carry every approved Florida termite treatment method under one operator — Sentricon® Always Active baiting, Termidor® HE non-repellent liquid soil barrier, no-tent localized Termidor® foam or XT-2000 borate injection, whole-structure tent fumigation with Vikane® sulfuryl fluoride, and Florida Building Code-compliant pre-construction soil treatment for new builds — so the Cresthaven recommendation is selected on structural and biological fit, not on what our license card limits us to.
Pre-construction soil treatment on a new Cresthaven build is applied in two phases: phase one is the pre-pour Termidor® HE soil treatment across the footprint and at the footings/grade-beams before the concrete is placed; phase two is the perimeter re-treatment at backfill once the slab has cured and the wall envelope is closed. The treatment is documented on a Florida Building Code-compliant Soil Treatment Report submitted to the local building department with the framing inspection. A 5-year structural warranty is included.
The Cresthaven building stock — 1970s-80s slab CBS with barrel-tile and asphalt roofs — shapes treatment access and chemistry selection. Wood roof framing carries drywood termite findings concentrated at truss bottom-chord interfaces, barrel-tile and concrete-tile roof voids hold the air space drywood colonies prefer, and any original heritage wood elements get flagged for preservation-grade treatment access. Treatment access points for any drilled work are planned in advance during the pre-treatment inspection so the homeowner sees the access map before any chemistry is applied. Because Cresthaven inspections frequently show mixed-species findings, the pre-construction soil treatment scope is built for combined treatment in a single mobilization: Sentricon® perimeter for the subterranean component plus localized no-tent injection or full-tent fumigation for any drywood gallery network the inspector documented. Both treatments share a single warranty contract and monitoring cycle.
Cresthaven sits inside the Tier 2 48-hour response window. We schedule the pre-treatment inspection within two business days of the call and issue the written treatment scope within 24 hours of inspection completion. Closing-deadline windows under FHA-203, VA, or conventional financing are prioritized inside the Tier 2 queue. The documentation package shipped with every Cresthaven pre-construction soil treatment includes the Florida-licensed Certified Operator signed report, treatment-method chemistry log, transferable warranty certificate, and the FDACS-required application records. FHA-203 and VA closing-format addenda are available at no extra charge when the treatment ties to a closing deadline.
Every Cresthaven pre-construction job carries the Florida Building Code-required Soil Treatment Report filed with the local building department, plus a 5-year transferable structural warranty that follows the property at first owner-occupancy. Year-1 monitoring is included and post-construction transition to a perimeter Sentricon® program is available at closing.

Learn moreCresthaven pre-construction soil treatment pricing depends on linear footage, structure type, and the species findings documented on the pre-treatment inspection. Most Cresthaven residential properties fall in the standard pricing range shown in the table below — no upsell scripts, no "starting at" language, and a transferable warranty included in the contract. Commercial and HOA-managed properties receive volume pricing when multiple units or buildings are scoped under one mobilization.
Tier 2 within 48 hours for Cresthaven. Closing-deadline windows under FHA, VA, or conventional financing are prioritized inside the standard queue and we will work with your title company or lender to align the treatment date with the underwriting deadline. Active swarm response — visible swarmers, fresh frass piles, or new mud-tube findings — gets priority within 24 hours regardless of the standard tier window.

Yes. Florida Building Code Section R318 requires termite protection on every new residential construction in Cresthaven and the rest of Florida. Soil-applied termiticide (Termidor® HE) must be placed after final compaction and grading and before the concrete slab is poured — once the plumbing inspection is complete and the vapor barrier is installed. Any soil disturbed after treatment must be re-treated, and any concrete over-pour must be removed before further work. The licensed pest-control company issues a Certificate of Compliance to the building department and a consumer notice is posted inside the home documenting the treatment method and the annual-renewal requirement. Sentricon® baiting is an alternate code-compliant method that requires a signed 5-year continued-service contract submitted to the building official before slab pour.
