Every possum problem starts with a gap. It might be a broken eave board, a missing vent cover, a lifted roof sheet or a hole where an old pipe used to run. Roof entry sealing closes these openings. We book an independent local crew in Annerley to find them and seal them, and you get upfront pricing before the visit.
The crew works from the ground, from a ladder and from inside the roof space. They look for daylight showing through, chewed timber, fur caught on edges and dark rub marks where animals push past. Some gaps are only a few centimetres wide, but a possum can squeeze through a surprisingly small space. The crew checks the whole roofline, not just the spot where you hear noise.
Each opening is closed with a material that suits it. Galvanised mesh works well for vents and eave gaps. Sheet metal or flashing suits larger holes and roof edges. Gaps around pipes and cables are packed and covered so they can still move. Sealing is often booked after possum removal, but it can also be done on its own if the roof is empty and you want to keep it that way.
- Eave, fascia and soffit gaps closed

Roof entry sealing is booked across Annerley for houses, units and townhouses. Tell us the age of the home if you can, since older roofs tend to have more gaps. Call 07 3543 7772, describe any gaps you have seen, and we will give you upfront pricing and book a local crew for a time that suits you.
