Every possum or rat in a roof got in through a gap somewhere. Roof entry sealing in Bridgeman Downs is about finding those gaps and closing them so nothing can climb back in. It suits homes where the animal has already gone, or where a crew has just removed one and you want every opening dealt with. We give you an upfront price over the phone before anyone comes out.
The crew we book looks at the roof from the ground, from a ladder and from inside. Entry points are often small and easy to miss. A possum can fit through a gap about the size of a fist, and a rat needs even less. Common spots include broken eave boards, the space under ridge capping, gaps around pipes and the joins between an old roof and a newer extension. Depending on what they find, the crew may use:
- Galvanised mesh cut and fitted to the gap
- Metal flashing where roof sheets or sections meet
- Sealant around pipes, cables and vents
- Replacement pieces for broken eave or fascia boards
Before sealing, the crew checks that no animal is still inside, so nothing gets shut in the roof by mistake. Once the gaps are closed, they show you where the work was done. If they notice anything that needs a bigger job, they will point it out so you can arrange it separately.
