Roof entry sealing is the hands-on part of keeping possums and rats out. It focuses on the specific gaps an animal is using or could use to get into the ceiling space. In Inner Brisbane, the most common spots are the ends of ridge capping, the space under the eaves, gaps where the roof meets a wall or extension, broken or missing vent covers and the gap between the gutter and the roof sheet. We take the details and book a nearby independent crew who does this work around the inner suburbs.
The crew we book inspects the roof from the outside and the inside, then seals each gap with a material that suits the spot. That might be galvanised mesh folded into a gap, sheet metal flashing over a lifted edge, a new vent cover or timber battens under the eaves. They take the roof type into account, since tin, tile and older timber roofs all need different approaches.
If a possum is still living in the roof, the crew will not seal every gap straight away. They fit a one-way door over the main entry first, then close the last gap once the roof is clear. This is why it helps to tell us when you call whether you are hearing noise right now or just want the roof sealed ahead of time. Homes in Inner Brisbane with past possum trouble often have old patch jobs that need redoing.
