If you are hearing something in the roof but have not seen it, an inspection is a sensible place to start. It saves guessing. We book a nearby independent crew in Peregian Beach to look over the outside of the house and the roof space and tell you plainly what is going on. You get upfront pricing on the phone before the visit, and there is no pressure to book any further work.
The crew we book checks the gutters, eaves, fascia, vents and any spot where a tree, fence or deck brings an animal close to the roof. Inside the roof space, they look for nests, droppings, fur, urine stains and paths flattened into the insulation. From these signs they can tell whether it is a brushtail or ringtail possum, how many there might be, and where they get in and out. They also check the ceilings inside for soft spots and stains.
At the end of the inspection, you will hear about:
- What is living in the roof and where it nests
- Each gap it uses to get in and out
- Any damage to insulation, ceiling sheets or wiring
- What removal and proofing would involve and cost
- Whether a cleanup or deodorising is worth adding
Inspections suit homes in Peregian Beach where the noise comes and goes, holiday homes that have been empty for a while, and homes where a possum was removed before and you want to check the gaps are still sealed. If you want to go ahead with removal on the day, the crew can often do it on the same visit once you agree to the price. Call 07 3543 7770 to book a possum inspection.
