Heavy thumps across the ceiling after dark are the most common reason people in Morayfield call us. A brushtail possum has usually found a gap in the roof line and made a nest in the warm, dry space above the ceiling. We are the booking line, so we ask what you are hearing, where in the house it is and what kind of roof you have, then give you upfront pricing before we book a nearby independent crew.
The crew we book starts inside the roof space. They look for the nest, droppings, scratch marks and the runways along the timber beams. Then they head outside and walk the roof line, checking ridge capping, valleys, gutters, eave lining, gable vents and any join where a carport, patio or shed roof meets the house. Dark rub marks and fur often show the main way in.
The work itself is simple. One-way doors go over the entry points in use, and every other gap is sealed with mesh, flashing or sealant. Once the roof space is clear, the doors come off and those final gaps are sealed and proofed too. The crew then walks you through what they found and what was sealed.
- Roof space check for nests and runways
- Roof line check of every likely gap
- One-way doors over the entry points in use
- Other gaps sealed with mesh, flashing or sealant
- Clean-up and odour treatment if you want them
Most homes in Morayfield have more than one way in, so the crew seals the whole roof line rather than a single hole. If you have pets that sleep outside, mention them when you call. To book possum removal, call 07 3543 7770 and tell us where and when you hear the noise.
