Sometimes you are not sure what is up there. It could be a possum, rats or just the house moving as it cools at night. A roof cavity inspection answers the question. The crew we book goes up through the manhole with a torch, looks over the whole space and checks the outside of the roof as well.
This is a good first step for homes in St Lucia where the noise has only just started, or where you have bought an older house and want to see what is going on above the ceiling. It is also useful before you put in new insulation, solar panels or ducted air, since those jobs mean people working in the roof space.
- Droppings, nests and urine stains on ceiling boards
- Flattened or torn insulation and disturbed sarking
- Chewed cables, pipes and ducting
- Gaps under eaves, loose capping and damaged vents
- Photos of anything the crew thinks you should see
At the end of the visit the crew tells you what they found and what they suggest. If a possum is living there, they can often move straight on to removal and sealing if you agree to the price. If it turns out to be rats, they can set up rodent control. If they find nothing living in the roof, you have peace of mind and a list of gaps to watch.
We give you upfront pricing for the inspection before the visit. Tell us if the manhole is in a hard to reach spot, such as inside a wardrobe or above a stairwell, so the crew brings the right ladder. To book a roof cavity inspection in St Lucia, call 07 3543 7768 and we will arrange a local crew.
