Entry point proofing is the sealing and closing off stage that happens once a roof or wall cavity in Runcorn has been checked as clear. Call 07 3543 7769 to book this once a one-way door has done its job, and a local crew will come back out to close off the gap.
The crew checks the whole roofline rather than just the one gap that was being used, since a roof with one weak spot often has others nearby. Ridge capping is reset and sealed, gaps around roof vents and pipe penetrations are closed, and loose or lifted tiles are reset. Joins where an extension, carport or patio meets the main roof are checked closely, since these areas move over time and can open new gaps.
In Runcorn, the mix of older highset homes and newer brick and timber builds means the crew adjusts the materials used depending on the roof type. The aim is a roofline with no obvious way back in for a possum looking for somewhere to shelter. A roof that has had one entry point closed off in the past is checked over just as closely as one that has never had a problem, since a new gap can open in a different spot years later.
