After a possum has been living in a roof for a while, it leaves a mess behind. Droppings build up around the nesting spot and along the paths it takes to the entry. Insulation near the nest is often soaked, flattened or pulled apart. Once the possum is out and the gaps are sealed, it makes sense to clear this away. We book a nearby independent crew to clean up roof spaces in Indooroopilly, with upfront pricing given on the phone.
The crew we book works through the roof space with bags and vacuums made for the job. They collect droppings from beams, ceiling joists and the tops of walls, and bag up soiled insulation that cannot be saved. Where the ceiling has been stained, they clean the area they can reach from above and can treat it to help with lingering odour.
If a lot of insulation has to come out, the crew will tell you and give you a price before they go further. Some homes only need a small patch cleared near the old entry, while others with a long-term possum need a bigger clean-out. They also keep the manhole area and the room below tidy while they work, laying down drop sheets where needed.
