A possum in the roof is one of the most common problems for homes across Eastern Brisbane. Most people notice it at night, when heavy thumping and scratching start up above the bedroom or living room. Some also notice a musky smell, stains on the ceiling or droppings near the back door. We take your call, give you an upfront price and book a local crew to deal with it.
The crew we book begins with an inspection. They check the roof space for the nest and the paths the possum takes, and walk the outside of the house looking at the eaves, gutters, ridge and vents. That tells them where the possum is getting in and out. Once it is out of the roof, they close the gap so it cannot get back inside. A removal visit usually covers:
- An inspection inside the roof space and around the roof line
- Finding the nest and the entry point the possum uses
- Getting the possum out of the roof space
- Sealing the entry with mesh, flashing or sealant
- A run-through of what was found and what was done
If the crew spots other gaps that a possum could use in future, they will point them out and give you a price to close them as well. Many people choose to have the whole roof line proofed at the same time. Droppings and smells can also be dealt with in the same visit if you want.
