West Bridgford's Edwardian and inter-war houses have bays, gables and chimney stacks that pigeons like. We proof discreetly so the look of the house is kept.
Houses of this period often have features that suit pigeons: bay window roofs, projecting gables, tall stacks and decorative detail. Droppings mark brickwork and paths below, and nests tuck into the corners of dormers or porch roofs. We survey carefully and fit proofing in ways that respect the look of the property, which matters to owners here. Slate and clay roofs need care when fixing deterrents, so we choose methods that do not slip or crack tiles.
Near the cricket and football grounds, match days can bring extra food scraps and litter, which attract birds in the area. We note this at the survey if relevant. Wild birds are protected, so we use only lawful, humane methods. Fixed pricing and free advice apply, and appointments can be arranged to suit you. If the house is in a conservation area, mention it at booking so we can discuss anything that affects the appearance.
Usually. Many deterrents are slim and sit along the edge or ledge, so they are hard to see from the street. We explain what will be visible before starting. Gutters on period homes can be deep, and nest debris there is easy to overlook from the ground.
Dropped food and overflowing bins draw birds in, and once they find a convenient roost nearby they stay. Tidy waste handling alongside proofing gives better results. Properties close to the grounds may also see extra visitors on busy days, which is worth noting when we survey.
No. Proofing is designed to stop birds landing or nesting, and the methods used must be lawful.
