Not sure what is up there? A roof cavity inspection is a good first step if you hear noises at night but have not seen anything. We take the call, ask what you have noticed in your Morayfield home and give you upfront pricing for the inspection before we book a nearby independent crew.
The crew we book goes in through the manhole with a torch and looks for signs of activity. Possums leave oval droppings, flattened insulation where they sleep, urine stains on the plasterboard and worn tracks along the beams. Rats and mice leave smaller droppings and chewed wiring or insulation. They check around downlights, fans and the edges of the ceiling where mess tends to build up. The crew also checks the roof from outside and looks for rub marks, fur and loose tiles or capping.
At the end, the crew tells you what they found, what kind of animal it is likely to be, and which gaps are in use. If sealing or one-way doors are needed, you get a price for that work before anything more is done. Many people choose to go ahead on the same visit, but that is up to you.
- Roof space checked from the manhole
- Droppings, nests and runways identified
- Outside roof line checked for gaps
- Clear explanation of what was found
- A price for any further work before it starts
An inspection is also handy after a storm, when tiles or capping may have shifted on your Morayfield home. Clear a path to the manhole before the visit so the crew can get straight in. To book a roof cavity inspection, call 07 3543 7770 and tell us when you can be home.
