How our woodworm treatments work
Our approach at Elliot Timber Preservation begins with a thorough inspection to identify which areas are affected by woodworm across locations such as Newton Mearns and East Kilbride. We then apply targeted treatments that reach deep into the timber, eliminating active larvae and protecting against future infestations. Our methods prioritise both effectiveness and safety, ensuring treated wood maintains its appearance and strength without exposing residents or workers to unnecessary chemicals. Ongoing advice and support help customers maintain their wood’s health over time.
