The roof space is the most common place for a possum to settle in Rocklea. Insulation is warm, the space is dry and there is little to disturb them during the day. Once a possum finds a way in, it will often use the same spot night after night and may raise young there.
We take your call, ask about the noise and the roof, and give you upfront pricing. Then we book an independent crew that works nearby. The crew we book goes up through the manhole and looks for the nest, droppings, urine stains and flattened insulation. They check the space around downlights, ducts and the edges of the ceiling where possums like to sleep. They also note any damage to wiring or ducting so you can decide what to repair.
From outside, the crew checks the eaves, gutters, fascia boards, ridge capping, vents and any spot where a newer roof joins an older one. Tiled roofs can have cracked or loose tiles, while iron roofs often have lifted sheets or gaps at the ends. A one-way door goes over the main entry so the possum can leave at night, and the other gaps are closed with mesh or sheet metal.
