Small gaps in the roof line are how possums, rats and mice get into a home. Roof gap sealing closes them before they turn into a bigger problem. Most gaps are small and easy to miss from the ground. When you call about your Morayfield home, we ask about the roof type and any spots you have noticed, then give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew.
The crew we book starts with a check of the whole roof line. Common gaps include cracked or lifted ridge capping, the space between tiles and gutters, gaps under barge boards, rusted valley irons and holes around pipes, vents and air conditioning lines. Where a carport, patio or shed roof was added onto the house, the join between the two roofs is often left open.
Each gap is sealed with a material that suits the spot. Galvanised mesh works well at tile edges and gutters, metal flashing covers larger joins, and outdoor sealant fills small cracks around pipes. If a possum is still inside, a one-way door goes over its main gap and that gap is sealed once the roof space is clear. The crew shows you each spot sealed before they pack up.
- Ridge capping and loose tile gaps
- Gutter line and sagging eave gaps
- Barge, fascia and valley gaps
- Pipe, vent and air conditioning cable holes
- Extension and carport roof joins
Sealing is often booked along with possum removal, but it also works on its own if you want the roof closed up before anything moves in. Many older homes in Morayfield have gaps that have opened slowly over the years. To book roof gap sealing, call 07 3543 7770 and tell us about your roof.
