A roof cavity is the most common place a possum settles once it works out how to get into a Beenleigh home. It is dark, it is warm and it usually backs onto a ceiling space the possum can move around in without being seen from inside the house. The scratching, thumping and the smell near the manhole are usually the first signs something has moved in above the ceiling.
When you call about a roof cavity job, we ask where the noise sits in the house and how long it has been happening, then book a local team to come out to Beenleigh and check the roof cavity from both the manhole and the outside. The crew we book looks along the roofline for gaps around flashing, broken tiles, lifted ridge capping and anywhere a gutter or downpipe meets the roof, since these are common ways into a cavity.
Once the entry point into the cavity is confirmed, a one-way door goes over it so the gap can be closed off properly once the cavity has cleared. Other smaller gaps around the same section of roof get sealed at the same visit, which cuts down the chance of the cavity being used again later in the year.
