Sometimes you are not sure what is in the roof, or whether it is still there. Maybe the noise has come and gone, or you have just moved into a home in Wavell Heights and want to check what the last owners left behind. A ceiling space inspection gives you a clear answer before you spend money on anything else.
The crew we book checks the ceiling space through the manhole, using torches to look for droppings, urine stains on timber, squashed insulation, piles of shredded material and light coming in from outside. They also walk the outside of the house and look at the roofline from the ground and a ladder, checking ridge capping, tiles or iron, eaves, fascia and vents. Where wall cavities open into the ceiling, they look there too.
At the end of the visit, the crew talks you through what they saw. That includes whether a possum is in the roof right now, where it is likely getting in, which other gaps could let one in later, and whether a cleanup is worth doing. You can then decide what to book, if anything. There is no pressure to go ahead with more work on the day, and the rundown is yours to keep.
