Roof entry sealing in Wynnum is the step that closes the case for good. Once a possum has left the roof, whether through a one-way door or on its own, the entry point and every other gap the crew found during the inspection need to be sealed before another possum, or the same one, finds its way back in. Leaving even one small gap open defeats the purpose of the whole job, since another animal will usually find it within a matter of weeks.
The crew matches the sealing material to the part of the roof involved. A vent gets a metal mesh that still allows airflow, a ridge cap gets re-bedded and pointed, and a fascia or eave gap gets a timber repair or flashing depending on how it has opened up. Sealant alone is rarely enough on its own, which is why the crew matches the fix to the material rather than using one product everywhere. Gutter brackets and downpipe joins are checked at the same time, since these are another common weak spot.
For homes in Wynnum with more than one gap, sealing is usually done as a single visit once every entry point has been confirmed, rather than closing gaps one at a time as they are found. Where a section of roof is hard to reach from a ladder, the crew will flag it before the visit rather than after arriving. That way the roofline is dealt with properly rather than patched piece by piece.
