Roof gap sealing is the hands-on part of keeping animals out of your roof. It focuses on the openings themselves: a lifted sheet of iron, a cracked ridge cap, a broken vent cover or a hole where an old flue or pipe once ran. We book independent crews across South Brisbane to find and close these gaps, with upfront pricing given before the visit.
Gap sealing suits roofs that are empty right now, roofs where a possum has just left, and homes where rats are getting in through small holes. The crew checks the roof from a ladder and from inside the roof space, looking for daylight, rub marks, droppings and chewed edges. Even a small gap can be enough for a rat, so they check closely around pipes and cables.
Each gap gets the right fix. Mesh covers vents and gable openings, sheet metal and flashing close roof edges and larger holes, and fine mesh or packing closes the small spaces rats use. If a possum might still be inside, the crew fits a one-way door on that gap first rather than sealing it straight away. The crew shows you each sealed spot before they pack up.
