Sometimes the noise is not above you but beside you. A possum can drop from the roof space into a wall cavity, or get in through a gap near the eave that leads straight into the wall. You might hear scratching low down in a bedroom wall or climbing sounds at dusk. We take these calls often from homes in Woodridge.
The approach is the same as for a roof. The crew we book works out where the cavity opens to the roof or the eave, as that is almost always the way in and out. A one-way door is fitted at that point, and any other gaps along the wall plate or eave lining are sealed. Once the cavity is clear, the door comes off and the opening is closed and proofed.
- Tell us which wall and which room the noise comes from
- Note the times you hear it, such as dusk or early morning
- Check outside for gaps in the eave lining near that wall
- Keep pets away from the wall while the door is in place
Wall cavity work usually means no holes in your walls. The crew works from the roof space and the outside of the home wherever they can. If they need to open a small section, they explain why and give you the price before doing it. Brick veneer, timber and fibro walls each have their own quirks, and the crew checks the whole wall line, not just the spot where the noise is.
You get upfront pricing on the phone before the visit, and visits can be same-day or next-day where the run allows. For wall cavity possum removal in Woodridge, call 07 3543 7766 and tell us which wall you are hearing it in.
