Not sure if it is a possum, rats or just the roof moving in the heat? A roof cavity inspection gives you a clear answer before you spend money on anything else. It is a good first step for many homes in Victoria Point, especially if the noise comes and goes or you have only noticed a faint smell.
The crew we book goes up through the manhole with a torch and checks along the joists and ceiling boards. They look for nests, droppings, urine stains, flattened insulation and chewed material. They pay close attention to spots near the eaves and around downlights, where animals like to shelter. Outside, they check the roofline for any gaps that match what they found inside.
- A check of the roof cavity for nests, droppings and damage
- An outside look at the gutters, eaves, vents and ridge caps
- Photos of what was found, where the crew can take them
- A plain answer on whether it is a possum or rodents
- A price for any work needed, given before it starts
Inspections are also handy before a renovation, after buying an older home or if you have had a possum problem in the past and want to check the roof is still closed up. Rental property owners and managers often book them between tenants too.
If the inspection shows nothing, you have an answer and can stop worrying. If it does find something, you will have a price in hand and can decide what to do next. To book a roof cavity inspection in Victoria Point, call 07 3543 7768 and tell us which part of the house has you concerned.
