Around the canal basin in Brighouse, stone terraces and former mills have sheltered roofs squirrels favour. We find the access point and put a stop to it.
Brighouse sits on the Calder and Hebble Navigation, and the canal basin is surrounded by stone terraces, former mills and later housing. Waterside spots often have trees and quiet yards, so squirrels reach the roof without interruption. In older buildings the clue may be a loosened slate or worn stone coping, and in newer houses a gap beneath plastic fascia. We examine both outside and inside, because one view alone can mislead.
Former mills in the town have been given new uses, and a roof void above a business can hide a long-term nest. Occupiers hear noises but cannot find a cause, and managing agents may not see the roof from year to year. For those cases we offer clear findings and a proposal. Homes get the same attention. We remove the animals humanely, clear the nest, then proof the entry so the repair lasts.
Entry gaps are often small, high up and in shadow, such as behind a gutter or under a verge. From the street they look like nothing. Close inspection from a ladder or platform, plus signs inside the loft, usually reveals them.
Generally yes. We can work around opening hours and keep to the areas needed. A free survey is available for homes and businesses, and commercial service contracts are available if you would like regular inspections after the initial work.
