Overhanging branches are one of the main ways possums reach a roof in Inner Brisbane. Big mango trees, jacarandas, figs and palms grow close to many homes in the inner suburbs, and a branch touching the gutter or roof is as good as a ladder. Rats use them too. Trimming branches back from the roofline is a simple step that makes the rest of the possum work hold up better. We take the details and book a nearby independent crew who handles roofline trimming as part of possum jobs.

The crew we book looks at which branches are touching or close to the roof and gutters, as well as fences and pergolas that lead up to the roof. They trim branches back to leave a clear gap between the tree and the house, so possums cannot jump or climb across. Palm fronds that rest on the gutter are a common problem and get cut back as well. Cuttings are cleaned up and removed where arranged.

This is small-scale trimming for access, not tree removal or large tree work. If a tree is very large or near power lines, the crew will tell you and suggest an arborist. Branches hanging over from a neighbour's yard need their okay first. Trimming is usually needed again every so often as trees grow back, especially quick growers like mango and fig.

Roofline Branch Trimming FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Roofline Branch Trimming

Questions we hear most often about Roofline Branch Trimming in Inner Brisbane.

Talk to a real person
How do I book possum removal in Inner Brisbane?
Call 07 3543 7767 and tell us what you are hearing, where in the house it seems to be and what type of home you have. We pass the job to a nearby independent crew who works in Inner Brisbane and the suburbs around it. You get upfront pricing and a time window before anyone comes out, often same-day or next-day where the run allows.
How do I tell if it is a possum or a rat in the roof?
Possums are heavy, so you usually hear thumping and running, mostly just after dark and again before dawn. Rats make lighter scratching and scurrying sounds and can be active all night. Possum droppings are larger, about the size of a jellybean or bigger, while rat droppings are small and thin. The crew we book can confirm which it is.
Why do possums move into roofs?
Possums look for a dry, dark, sheltered place to sleep during the day. A roof space is warm, quiet and out of the rain, which makes it an easy choice when tree hollows are scarce. In older inner Brisbane suburbs, big trees close to houses and gaps in ageing rooflines give them plenty of ways in.
When are possums most active in the roof?
Possums are nocturnal, so most of the noise happens just after dusk when they leave to feed and again in the early morning when they return. Activity often picks up in the cooler months, when possums look for warmer shelter, and again in spring and early summer when young possums are moving about.
What damage can a possum do in the roof?
Possums can soak ceilings with urine, causing brown stains and a strong smell that comes through light fittings and cornices. Their droppings build up on insulation and ceiling boards. They can also shift roof tiles, chew timber and wiring, and flatten insulation. Left for a long time, a stained ceiling may need repair or replacement.
