Eaves sit at the point where the roofline meets the walls, and on a lot of Coorparoo homes this join has small gaps that widen slightly over time as timber moves with the weather. Eave gap sealing closes these narrow openings, which are an easy entry point for a possum moving along the outside wall of the house.
The crew checks the full eave line, looking for gaps around fascia boards, soffit linings and the corners where two roof sections meet above the wall line. Because these gaps tend to be narrow rather than obvious holes, a close check from ground level and, where needed, from a ladder is the way to find every one of them.
This work pairs well with roof vent proofing and ridge cap sealing, since all three deal with different sections of the same roofline and are often checked in a single visit. Booking them together means the crew covers your Coorparoo roof properly rather than returning for each section separately. Timber fascia and soffit linings common on older Coorparoo homes tend to shrink slightly over dry stretches of weather, which is often when these narrow gaps widen enough for a possum to start using them. A close check along the full eave line usually finds more than one weak spot, so it is worth having the whole run looked at rather than just the section closest to the noise.
