Once the possum is out of the roof, there is usually a mess left behind. Droppings, urine, shredded leaves and nesting material build up over weeks or months. In the warm, humid weather on the Gold Coast, that mess can start to smell and stain the ceiling below.
The crew we book goes into the roof space wearing masks and gloves. They clear droppings and nest material by hand and with an industrial vacuum, working around downlights, cables and ducting. Heavily soiled patches of insulation can be bagged and taken away. Drop sheets go down under the manhole so nothing ends up on your floors.
- Droppings and nesting material removed from the roof space
- Urine-soaked patches cleaned and treated
- Soiled insulation bagged and taken away where needed
- Area around the manhole cleaned so nothing drops into the house
- Waste removed from the property at the end of the job
Roof space cleaning also helps you see what is going on. With the mess gone, it is easier to spot stains on the ceiling plaster, damaged cables and any gaps that were missed. The crew points out anything they notice so you can decide what to do next.
This job pairs well with roof deodorising, as removing the mess takes away most of the source of the smell and the deodoriser handles what is left. It can be booked on the same visit as a removal or on a later date. Tell us roughly how long the possums were in the roof and how big the home is, and we will give you upfront pricing for your home on the Gold Coast. Call 07 3543 7767 to book.
