SKUAS serves Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula and Zirakpur from its Mohali office in Industrial Area Phase 8B. We lay TermiPore porous pipe along the plinth and wall lines before the floor PCC, charge it with Envu Premise SC at the IS 6313 dose, and refill it every 2 to 3 years from junction boxes, with no drilling of finished floors.
In Chandigarh itself, most construction is the rebuilding of sector houses. Kothis in the older sectors, many from the city's early decades, are being replaced or heavily renovated within the city's building controls, so the plinth stage of each rebuild is a short, planned window. Around the city, the Tricity keeps growing: Mohali's newer sectors and Aerocity, New Chandigarh near Mullanpur, high-rise societies in Zirakpur and plotted homes in Panchkula.
SKUAS has an office in Mohali at D180/C, 4th Floor, Industrial Area Phase 8B, so Tricity sites are handled locally rather than from Delhi. That makes it practical to visit a site more than once: at excavation to mark the layout, at the plinth for pipe laying and the flow test, and again when the floor is ready for the first charge.
The Tricity lies at the foot of the Shivaliks, on alluvial soil crossed by seasonal streams known locally as choes, and by the Ghaggar near Panchkula and Zirakpur. Soil near these channels holds moisture after the rains, which favours subterranean termites around foundations built close to them. We look at site levels and drainage at the first visit for this reason.
Many older Chandigarh houses have wooden doors and frames, built-in almirahs and wooden or parquet flooring in the drawing room. In these houses termites often show up first in lower door frames and skirting. On a rebuild, we lay the pipe around the new plinth before any new woodwork arrives on site.
The Tricity has a cold winter, a hot early summer and a strong monsoon. Termite activity near the surface slows in the cold months and picks up with warmth and moisture. We like to time refills before or just after the monsoon, so the treated soil is renewed ahead of the busiest season.
Large stretches of farmland around Mohali, Kharar, Zirakpur and Mullanpur have turned into sectors and societies in a short time. Colonies living in those fields stay in the ground after levelling, and new buildings sit beside empty plots for years. A plinth-stage barrier is the simplest protection to build in from the start.
The pipe we install
Made in Vadodara, Gujarat, India from a thermoplastic elastomeric compound with a honeycomb micro-pore wall. Termiticide seeps out evenly through micro-pores on all sides, unlike hand-drilled PVC that leaks at a few holes. The manufacturer rates pipe life at 30 to 50 years (manufacturer estimate).
Sizes, specs and how to spot genuine pipe
The chemical we charge it with
Imidacloprid 30.5% SC from Envu (formerly Bayer Environmental Science). It is odourless and non-repellent: termites cannot detect it, carry it back to the nest and pass it on to the colony.

Plinth and room-wise pipe for rebuilt houses, with ports placed to suit the front setback and boundary design.
Outer plinth and inner wall loops for new houses in Mohali's phases and sectors and in Panchkula's residential sectors.
Basement and tower perimeter lines coordinated with the developer, with every refill done from junction boxes in common areas.
Boundary and column-line pipe for units in Mohali's industrial phases and Chandigarh Industrial Area Phase 1 and 2.
Tricity projects are run from our Mohali office at D180/C, 4th Floor, Industrial Area Phase 8B, Mohali 160055. Being close by, we can attend site meetings with your architect or contractor and shift the pipe laying date if the plinth slips by a few days. Refill visits and reminders are also handled from the same office.
