Eave gaps and vent covers are an easy way into a roof once a join has opened up or a cover has rusted through, and they are often overlooked because they sit high up and out of view from the ground. Eave and vent screening in Wynnum goes over every eave and vent on the house rather than just the one that is obviously damaged. Whirlybirds and gable vents are checked in the same visit, since these sit at the same height and face the same weather as the rest of the roofline.
The crew checks each vent cover for rust, cracked plastic or gaps around the frame, and looks along the eave line for joins that have opened up or timber that has warped enough to leave a gap. Metal mesh is fitted behind any vent that still needs airflow but should not be an open gap, and eave joins are sealed to match the material involved. Screens are checked again once fitted to make sure airflow through the roof space has not been reduced.
This work is often booked alongside a wider roof check across Wynnum, since a damaged vent is rarely the only weak point on the house. The crew will point out any other gaps noticed on the way, even if they are not part of the original job.
