Local, licensed, and in your crawlspace — not a call center.
Proterm is a Lowcountry company. We protect homes and businesses from termites, keep pests out year-round, and fix the moisture problems under the floor that cause both — at a price a neighbor would call fair.
Twenty years under Lowcountry houses
We started with one truck and a termite license, working the neighborhoods we grew up in. Two decades later the crew is bigger, the equipment is better, and the model hasn’t changed: the person who inspects your house is the person who explains it to you.
Charleston humidity means the pest problem and the moisture problem are the same problem. That’s why we do both — a barrier under the house and a bond on it, not one without the other.
No scare tactics, no upsell you didn’t ask for, no contract you need a lawyer to read.
Red means action
We tell you what needs doing now, what can wait, and what doesn’t need doing at all.
Everything in writing
Photos of what we found, moisture readings, the treatment plan and a flat price — emailed the same day.
The same technician
You get one tech who knows your property, texts before he comes, and answers his phone.
A fair price, held
The quote is the price. Renewals don’t creep, and we’ll tell you before anything changes.
