Before any sealing or clean-up happens, most jobs across Wynnum start with a roof cavity inspection. This is the crew's first look at the house, checking the roof space from the manhole and the outside of the roof for gaps, and working out whether a possum is currently using the space or has already moved on. Some callers have heard noise for weeks, while others have only just noticed it, and either way the first step is the same.
The inspection covers the ridge line, vents, eaves, fascia and gutter line from the outside, along with a look inside the roof space where access allows. The crew notes every possible entry point, not just the one that seems most likely, since a possum will often use more than one gap over time even if it favours one spot most nights. Photos are sometimes taken during the inspection so you have a clear record of what was found, especially if there is any damage worth mentioning separately.
At the end of an inspection in Wynnum, you get a clear picture of what is going on and what the job ahead will involve, along with a price before anything further is booked. Even if nothing turns out to be currently living in the roof, the inspection still tells you whether the house has any gaps worth closing before a possum finds them. Here is what the crew checks along the way:
- Ridge line, vents, eaves, fascia and gutter line from outside
- The roof space itself where access allows
- Every possible entry point, not just the obvious one
- Any nest, droppings or stained insulation already present
- A clear price for the next steps before anything is booked
