Sealing the roof stops new mess, but the droppings and nest material already up there do not go anywhere on their own. In a warm Mango Hill roof space, that waste soon starts to smell and can draw flies and other pests. A clean-up clears it out. We give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a nearby independent crew to handle it.
The crew we book wears gloves, masks and coveralls and works through the roof space from the manhole. Droppings are picked up by hand or with a vacuum made for the job, and nest material is bagged and carried out. Downlights and ceiling fans are checked around, since waste often builds up near them. Stained timber and plasterboard edges are wiped where they can be reached. If the waste has soaked into the insulation, the crew shows you and prices removal of those batts.
Most clean-ups happen on the same visit as the sealing, once the roof space is clear. A deodorising treatment can be added to help with the smell. The crew can also look first and price the clean-up if you are unsure how much mess there is. Flies and smell usually drop off once the waste is gone.

Homes in Mango Hill where a possum has been living for a while usually need this step to get rid of the smell. Clear the area around the manhole before the visit so bags can move in and out. To book a possum waste clean-up, call 07 3543 7771 and tell us how long you have been hearing noises.
