Before booking removal or proofing, some people in Mitchelton want to find out exactly what is going on up there. A roof cavity inspection gives you that picture. It is a good choice if the noise comes and goes, if you have just bought an older home, or if you have seen a stain on the ceiling but cannot hear anything moving. It helps you decide on the next step with the facts in front of you.
The crew we book goes up through the manhole with a torch and moves along the ceiling joists, checking the insulation, the underside of the roof and the corners where the roof meets the walls. They look for droppings, flattened or stained insulation, nesting material and daylight showing through gaps. Outside, they walk the roofline and look at tiles, iron, ridge capping, eaves, vents and the verandah roof join.
At the end of the inspection you get a plain summary of what was found, which gaps are being used, which are weak spots for later, and a price for any removal or proofing work. If the crew can take photos of hard-to-see areas, they will show you so you can see the gaps for yourself. There is no pressure to book more work on the day.
