Dealing with one possum is only half the job if the roof still has other gaps. Roof proofing closes every gap a possum could use, so another one does not move in next season. It is a common request from Mango Hill households who have heard noises come and go over the years. We give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a nearby independent crew to do the work.
The crew we book walks every roof level and checks the spots possums use most. On metal roofs, that means the open ends of the sheets, the barge capping, ridge flashing and any gap where the roof meets the gutter. On tiled roofs, it means ridge capping, valley irons and slipped tiles. They also check where lower roofs meet upper walls, around solar frames and at pipe and cable entries.
Gaps are closed with materials that suit each spot, such as foam infill strips and mesh on metal sheet ends, galvanised mesh at tile edges, metal flashing on larger joins and outdoor sealant on small cracks. If a possum is still using the roof, a one-way door goes on first and the final gap is sealed once the roof space is clear.

Proofing suits newer estate homes and older houses alike in Mango Hill. It pairs well with vent screening and garden deterrents for a tighter result. To book possum roof proofing, call 07 3543 7771 and tell us whether your roof is tile or metal.
