The gutter line is where the roof meets the edge of the house, and on many homes in Nundah there is a gap between the bottom row of tiles and the gutter or fascia. Possums walk along gutters at night, and a gap at that edge is one of the easier places to squeeze into the roof. Gutters packed with leaves also give a possum something to grip and dig through.
Gutter guard is a sturdy metal mesh fitted along the gutter and tucked under the bottom row of tiles or iron. As well as keeping leaves out, it closes the gap at the roof edge so it is no longer an easy way into the cavity. The crew we book picks a mesh that suits your roof type and fits it along the runs where possums are most likely to travel, such as near trees and fence lines. It also makes the gutters easier to keep clear through the leafy months.
Before the mesh goes on, the gutters are cleared of leaves and the edge is checked for gaps or rusted sections of fascia. Any rusted fascia found along the way is shown to you before work goes ahead. If a possum is already in the roof, a one-way door is fitted first and the gutter work waits until the cavity is clear.
