Roof cavity removal in Petrie deals with a possum that has settled into the roof space itself, usually in the corner near the eaves or along a beam where it is warm and dry. When you call, we take down where the noise is coming from and how long it has been happening, then book a local team to inspect the roof cavity from inside the ceiling space and from the roofline outside.
Once the entry point is found, whether it is a lifted tile, a gap in the barge board or a broken whirlybird, a one way door is fitted over that spot. The possum can push out through the door in its own time but cannot climb back in once it has left. The crew checks the rest of the roof cavity in Petrie homes for any second entry point before calling the space clear, since possums will often have a backup route in and out.
Once the roof cavity is confirmed clear, the entry point is sealed and any nearby gaps around vents, flashing or ridge capping are proofed at the same time. This step matters, because an unsealed roof cavity is likely to attract another possum within a season.
