Once a possum has been living in a roof for a while, it leaves a mess behind. Droppings, urine, leaves and nesting material build up on the ceiling boards and in the insulation. That mess can stain ceilings, leave a strong smell through the home and hang around long after the roof is sealed. We book a nearby independent crew to clear it out for homes in Woodridge.
The crew we book works through the roof space from the ceiling hatch. They wear protective gear, bag up droppings and nesting material, and take it away. Soiled patches are cleaned and a deodoriser can be used to help with the smell. They also check the ceiling boards for water damage or sagging where urine has soaked in.
- Droppings and nesting material bagged and taken away
- Soiled patches on ceiling boards cleaned
- Deodoriser used to help with lingering smells
- Ceiling boards checked for staining and sagging
- Insulation checked to see if it needs replacing
A clean-up is usually done after the roof has been sealed and proofed, so the space stays clear. If the insulation is flattened or soaked, the crew can quote for roof insulation replacement at the same visit. Low-pitched roofs on lowset homes can be tight to work in, so the crew may ask about roof height before the visit. If you have health questions about droppings or smells, ask your doctor.
You get upfront pricing on the phone before anyone comes out, based on the size of the roof space and how much material there is. Visits can be same-day or next-day where the run allows. To book a roof void clean-up in Woodridge, call 07 3543 7766.
