Getting a possum out is only half the job. Unless the roof is proofed, another possum can find the same gap, or a new one, within weeks. We book roof proofing for homes across Flagstone, with upfront pricing given on the phone and the work done by a nearby independent crew. Proofing can be booked after a removal or on its own.
Proofing starts with a full look at the roof line. The crew checks eaves, fascia, gable ends, ridge capping, valleys and every pipe or cable that passes through the roof. They pay extra attention to spots where two roofs meet, such as a garage or alfresco roof against the main house, since builders often leave small gaps there. Acreage homes with sheds close by are checked on the side facing the shed.
- Galvanised mesh over larger gaps and open vents
- Metal flashing on roof joins and lifted sheet edges
- Sealant around pipes, cables and small cracks
- Ridge and tile gaps pointed out or reseated
- Notes on branches that reach the roof
Materials are picked so they close gaps without stopping the roof from breathing, which matters in the heat of a Queensland summer. If there is any sign that a possum is still living inside, the crew fits a one-way door on that gap and leaves it open until the roof is quiet. No gap is sealed with an animal on the wrong side of it.
