Sometimes you are not sure what is in the roof. The noise might be a possum, or it might be something else. A possum inspection gives you a clear answer before you commit to any work. It suits homes in Logan where the signs are patchy, the noise comes and goes, or you have moved in recently and want to check the roof space. Many people also book one after a storm to see whether new gaps have opened.
The crew we book works through the roof space with a torch, checking for droppings, urine stains, nesting material, pushed-aside insulation and chewed cables. Outside, they walk the roof line looking for gaps, rub marks and damaged fittings. Putting the two together shows whether a possum is living there now, has been there before, or has never been in at all.
- Droppings, stains and nesting spots in the roof space
- Disturbed insulation and chewed cables
- Gaps, rub marks and damaged fittings on the roof line
- Signs of how recent the activity is
- A plain summary before the crew leaves
Before leaving, the crew explains what they found in everyday language. If a possum is in residence, they will show you where it is getting in and what the job would involve. If the signs are old, they will tell you that too, so you do not pay for work you do not need. Photos can be taken of anything worth showing you. Any work beyond the inspection is priced and agreed first.
An inspection is a sensible first step when the picture is unclear. We give you upfront pricing on the phone before the visit. For a possum inspection in Logan, call 07 3543 7767 and we will book a nearby independent crew at a time that suits you.
