The ranges, plainly
| Localized / spot treatments | Low end of the band: one wall, one active area |
|---|---|
| Full-perimeter liquid soil treatment | Priced by the linear foot: $3–$20/ft published; whole-home jobs commonly $500–$2,500. Published Tucson-specific estimates land tighter, roughly $600–$1,500 full-perimeter at $3–$7/ft, though the two Tucson sources disagree on per-foot pricing, so treat the spread as real |
| Bait system, installed | $1,000–$2,500 in most published sets (some run to $3,500), plus the number to ask about: the annual renewal, typically $200–$500/yr; published Tucson estimates put renewals at $275–$425 |
| Whole-structure fumigation (drywood cases) | $1–$4 per sq ft ($2,000–$8,000 for an average home) |
Sources: published 2026 estimates from HomeGuide (verified against the live page) and two Tucson-specific estimate sets, which disagree on per-foot pricing; ranges here span both. Real Tucson quote data will replace these as it accumulates.
The five factors that set your number
- Linear footage: liquid treatments price by the perimeter foot, so a sprawling single-story costs more to trench than its square footage suggests.
- Home size and construction: slab-on-grade vs. crawl space changes access and labor.
- Treatment type: barrier vs. bait vs. fumigation, per the table above.
- Severity and spread: one active wall vs. multiple entry points.
- Warranty terms: a lower bid with no retreatment guarantee is often the more expensive quote; renewals typically bill annually.
What a legitimate quote includes
Inspection findings in writing · the species identified · product and method named (Termidor/Altriset/Trelona-class, not "our treatment") · measured linear feet · warranty and bond terms, including transferability · annual renewal price · financing terms if offered.
Questions that keep a bid honest
- What did the inspection actually find, and can I see it?
- Is this priced per linear foot, and how many feet?
- What does the retreatment guarantee cover, and for how long?
- Is the bond transferable if I sell?
- What will renewal cost in year two?
