Daybrook's Victorian and inter-war housing has plenty of roof edges, bays and stacks. We fit proofing in the right places so birds move on without harm.
Older properties in Arnold's Daybrook area have features pigeons like: bay roofs, gable ends, shallow eaves and chimney stacks. Birds use them to rest and nest, and droppings gather over front doors and on window sills. We survey the front, back and sides of the house, as birds often favour the side not visible from the street. The front elevation often looks clean while the sides and rear hold the real roost, so it helps to look around.
Inter-war homes nearby tend to have simple ridges and porches, which may need just a few deterrents. Wild birds are protected, so every method we use is lawful and humane. We explain what each proofing option does, give a fixed price and offer free advice on cleaning. Appointments are arranged to suit you. If you can see birds going in and out of one spot, mention it when you call, and it saves time on site.
Quiet, sheltered spots at the rear or sides feel safer to them. It is worth checking all elevations. We do this during the survey. Gable ends with timber boards are a favourite, and a fix there can solve a long-running problem.
We offer appointments to suit, and a survey will show what is needed. Call 0115 937 5117 and we will arrange a survey. Droppings on ledges can be dampened and removed with gloves and a mask, though we can also clear them.
No. Proofing is designed to stop birds landing or nesting, and the methods used must be lawful.
