The fascia is the board that runs along the edge of the roof behind the gutter. In many Narangba homes, small gaps open up at the fascia corners, behind the gutter or where the fascia meets the eave lining. Possums are good climbers, and once they are on the gutter, a gap of just a few centimetres at the fascia is enough to reach the roof space.
When you ring, we ask whether you have seen a possum on the gutters or noticed dark marks along the fascia, then give upfront pricing and book a local team. The crew we book checks the full length of the fascia on every side of the house, paying close attention to corners, the ends of each gutter run and the spots where downpipes or patio beams attach.
Gaps are closed with sturdy mesh or sheet metal shaped to sit behind the gutter or along the fascia line, so the finish looks tidy from the ground. If a possum is still using one of the gaps, a one way door is fitted first and the sealing is done once the roof space is quiet. Any timber that has rotted or been chewed is pointed out so you can plan a repair. Gutters that are pulling away from the fascia are noted too, since they often leave a gap behind them.
