Possums and rodents leave a mess in the roof void. Droppings pile up near where they sleep, urine soaks into insulation and ceilings, and nesting material such as leaves, bark and shredded insulation builds up in corners. In warm weather the smell can reach the rooms below. We give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew that does roof void cleanups across Flagstone.
The cleanup is done once the animals are out and the gaps are sealed, so the roof does not get dirty again straight away. The crew wears masks and gloves, bags droppings and nesting material, and carries it out through the manhole. Insulation that is badly soiled can be pulled up and bagged, and the crew tells you how much was taken out so you can decide whether to replace it.
- Droppings bagged and removed
- Nesting material and leaf litter cleared
- Soiled insulation lifted where needed
- Deodoriser applied to stained patches
- Notes on ceiling stains and chewed cables
The crew moves along the ceiling joists to avoid putting weight on the plaster. If they find chewed cables or water damage, they point it out so you can get an electrician or roofer to look at it. A cleanup on its own, without sealing, often means the mess comes back. Most people book the cleanup together with possum roof proofing or rodent proofing.
