Termite Treatment Cost Per Linear Foot (Georgia, 2026)

We are a referral service, not a pest control contractor — we may be paid when you call. Full disclosure.

Georgia termite work prices at $3.05–$16.15 per linear foot of foundation perimeter. That single number explains why two quotes on the same street can differ by 60% — and why a quote without measured footage on it has not been calculated at all.

How linear footage is measured

It is the perimeter of the foundation, not the square footage of the house. A compact two-storey home has less perimeter than a sprawling ranch of identical living area, and costs proportionally less to treat.

Termite treatment cost by foundation perimeter length in Georgia, from 120 to 340 linear feet
Same work, very different totals. This is why two quotes on one street can differ by 60%.

Perimeter At $3.05/ft At $16.15/ft
120 ft (small home) $366 $1,938
170 ft (typical) $519 $2,746
215 ft (larger) $656 $3,472
340 ft (large/sprawling) $1,037 $5,491
The spread is the point. That $3.05 to $16.15 range is not sloppiness — it reflects treatment type, obstruction, drilling requirements and soil access. Ask which end of the range you are being quoted at and why.

What pushes you toward the top of the range

  • Slab requiring drilling through concrete or patio — adds $300–600 on a long run.
  • Obstructed perimeter: decks, hardscape, dense planting.
  • Crawlspace needing interior access and moisture work.
  • Combined liquid plus bait rather than one method.

Common questions

Should I get quotes from multiple companies?

Yes, and ask each for their measured footage. If two companies measure the same house differently, that alone tells you something.

Is per-linear-foot always how it is quoted?

Not always — many operators quote a flat job price. Ask them to break it down anyway. A company that cannot is guessing.
