Not every possum job in Coorparoo starts and ends in the roof. Sometimes a possum reaches the roof cavity through a gap lower down, in a wall line rather than the roofline itself, particularly on split-level or highset homes where the wall cavity connects more directly to the space above. Wall cavity clearance covers this side of the job.
The crew checks the outside wall line for gaps around vents, electricity boxes, old pipe fittings and places where cladding has come away from the frame. Where a gap connects through to the roof cavity, the same approach applies as in the roof itself: a one-way door if the space is still in use, then sealing once it is clear.
This kind of gap is easy to miss on a roof-only check, since the entry point sits at wall height rather than along the roofline. Mentioning any scratching or noise that seems to come from a wall rather than the ceiling helps the crew work out where to start looking on your Coorparoo property. Split-level homes and houses built into a sloped block are the most common Coorparoo properties where a wall cavity connects through to a roof void in this way, so it is worth flagging the layout of your home when you book.
