On Bramcote's wooded hillside, many roofs sit close to trees. If a squirrel has found your loft, we trace the entry point and advise on proofing.
Bramcote is a leafy hillside suburb with inter-war and post-war homes, many of them detached or semi-detached. Tall trees around gardens and streets make life easy for squirrels, who can step from branch to roof without touching the ground. Detached homes have more exposed roof edge than terraces, and more places for a gap to form. A gnawed fascia on the side facing a tree is a common sign of where to look first.
Our survey covers the loft and roof exterior, especially the side nearest trees. We carry out treatment lawfully and give free advice on repairs, and sometimes on trimming back branches. We also look at food sources such as bird feeders. Bramcote lies in Broxtowe borough and is within our regular area, so visits can often be arranged quickly.
Trimming branches that touch or overhang the roof removes an easy access route. Check whether any trees are protected or need permission before cutting. It works well alongside repairs to entry points.
They have more roof edge and more corners, so there are more possible entry points. That does not mean every detached house has a problem, but surveys take a little longer.
Yes. They can chew timber, insulation and cables, and cable damage can be a fire risk.
