Eaves and gutters are two of the most common ways possums get into roofs in Woodridge. Eave lining boards can sag, crack or come loose, leaving a gap straight into the roof space. Along the gutter line, there is often a small space between the fascia and the roof sheets or tiles. A possum on the gutter can squeeze through with ease.
We book a nearby independent crew to check these spots and close them off. The crew we book walks the outside of the home, looks along the eave lining and the gutter line, and checks the corners where roof lines meet. Loose boards are fixed back, broken sections are patched, and gutter gaps are closed with mesh or flashing shaped to fit.
- Loose or sagging eave lining fixed back in place
- Cracked eave boards patched or swapped out
- Gaps between fascia and roof closed with mesh or flashing
- Corners and box gutters checked for openings
- Valleys where two roof lines meet checked
Older brick and fibro homes often have eave lining that has moved over the years, and timber highsets can have gaps where boards have shrunk. Newer homes are not immune either, as small gaps are sometimes left when roofs are built. Eave and gutter proofing is often done at the same time as possum removal, but you can book it on its own too.
The crew gives you the price before starting any work, and you get upfront pricing on the phone first. If a downpipe runs right up to the gutter, ask about downpipe guards when you call. Visits can be same-day or next-day where the run allows. To book eave and gutter proofing in Woodridge, call 07 3543 7766.
