Once a possum has left a roof cavity through a one-way door, the entry point needs to be sealed so nothing can get back in through the same gap. Call 07 3543 7769 to book a return visit in Runcorn, and a local crew will come back to check the cavity is clear before closing anything up.
Sealing covers more than just the main entry point. The crew checks the ridge capping along the whole roofline, roof vents, gaps around pipes and cables, and any join where an extension, carport or patio meets the main roof, since these are common places for a new gap to open up later. Loose or lifted tiles are reset where that is part of the job, and gaps around eaves are closed off with materials suited to the roof type.
In Runcorn, older highset homes and newer brick builds tend to develop gaps in different spots, so the crew adjusts what gets checked based on the age and style of the house. The aim is to close off every way in that was found during the inspection, not just the one that was being used most recently.
