Roof insulation is soft and warm, which is why possums love to nest in it. Over time, a nest site can leave a patch of insulation that is flattened, stained and soaked with urine. That patch holds onto the smell long after the possum has gone and stops doing its job of keeping your home in Redland cool in summer and warm in winter.

The crew we book lifts out the soiled batts or loose-fill from the affected area, bags it in the roof space and carries it out through the manhole. They try to keep the mess inside the roof to a minimum and lay drop sheets below the manhole before they start. Once the old material is out, the area can be cleaned and sanitised.

  • Soiled batts or loose-fill lifted from nest sites and runs
  • Material bagged inside the roof and carried out
  • Drop sheets laid under the manhole
  • The cleared area ready for sanitising
  • A price for any extra sections found on the day

Removal is usually limited to the areas that are badly affected, so you are not paying to replace insulation that is still in good shape. The crew will show you photos of what they found and suggest which sections should come out. If you want the gaps filled afterwards, they can point you towards local insulation installers.

This job pairs well with a droppings clean-up, sanitising and odour work, all priced before anything starts. To book soiled insulation removal in Redland, call 07 3543 7769 and tell us roughly how long the possum has been living in the roof.

Soiled Insulation Removal FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Soiled Insulation Removal

Questions we hear most often about Soiled Insulation Removal in Redland.

Talk to a real person
What should I do before the crew arrives?
Clear a path to the manhole and move anything stored directly under it, such as boxes or a bed. Tie up dogs so the crew can walk around the outside of the house without trouble. If you have noticed where the possum seems to get in, or a stain on the ceiling, make a note so you can point it out on the day.
Can the crew fix other gaps while they are up there?
Yes. Once the main entry point is sealed, the crew will point out any other gaps they found along the roofline, such as loose flashing, open vents or broken tiles. They give you a price for each one before doing it, so you can choose to have the whole roofline proofed on the day or leave some for later.
How can I tell if it is a possum and not a rat?
Possums are heavy, so you usually hear thumping or walking across the ceiling, often soon after dark and again before dawn. Rats and mice make lighter, quicker scratching sounds and are often busier during the night. Possum droppings are larger pellets, and possums often leave yellow or brown stains on ceilings where urine has soaked through.
Is there a time of year when possums are more of a problem?
Calls often pick up in autumn and winter, when the nights get cooler and possums look for warm, dry places to sleep. Spring can bring more activity too, as young possums leave their mothers and look for a place of their own. A roof with an open gap can be used at any time of year, though.
Are possum droppings and urine a concern inside the roof?
Over time, droppings and urine can soak into insulation and ceiling boards, causing stains and a strong, musky smell that drifts into rooms below. Wet patches can also weaken plasterboard. That is why many people have the roof space cleaned up and sanitised once the possum is out, rather than leaving the mess sitting above the ceiling.
