Understanding Termite Damage Repair Cost: Structural Wood Replacement Guide
Termite damage repair ranges from $2,000 (minor sill plate replacement) to $50,000+ (structural beam and joist replacement). Insurance almost never covers termite damage. Load-bearing wall repair requires engineer assessment ($500-2,000). Signs repair was done properly vs. cosmetic cover-up: sistered joists with structural adhesive and bolts (correct) vs. spray foam filler painted to match (scam).
Effective pest control starts with accurate identification. Different pests require different treatment approaches, and using the wrong method can make the problem worse or create health risks for your family and pets.
