Most roof problems start with a gap you would never notice from the driveway. A loose piece of ridge flashing, an open sheet end or a gap behind the gutter is enough for a possum, and far smaller gaps let in rats and mice. Roof gap sealing closes those openings. When you call about your Mango Hill home, we give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a nearby independent crew.
The crew we book checks each roof level in turn. Newer homes tend to have gaps at the gutter line, at the ends of metal sheets, under barge capping and around air conditioning and solar cables. Where a garage or alfresco roof joins a two-storey wall, the flashing often lifts or pulls away. Older homes add cracked ridge capping and sagging eaves to the list.
Each gap gets the right fix. Foam infill strips and mesh suit metal sheet ends, galvanised mesh suits tile edges, metal flashing covers wider joins and outdoor sealant fills small cracks. If a possum is inside, a one-way door goes over its main gap first and that gap is sealed once the roof space is clear. The crew points out every spot they sealed before packing up.
- Gutter line and sheet end gaps
- Barge capping and ridge flashing gaps
- Lower roof to upper wall joins
- Air conditioning and solar cable entries
- Cracked capping and sagging eaves
Sealing can be booked on its own to get ahead of the problem, or alongside possum removal. Many homes in Mango Hill have a few small gaps that open up as the roof moves with the heat. To book roof gap sealing, call 07 3543 7771 and tell us a little about your roof.
