Rodent proofing
Discuss repairs to gaps, vents and service penetrations that may allow rodents into a building, following a survey of the vulnerable points.
Rodent proofing: activity, entry points and follow-up
What needs assessing
Identify the construction around each gap, ventilation requirements and access for repairs. Active pest activity must be considered before the proofing sequence is agreed.
Agreeing the work
Review each proposed repair, the material to be used and any ventilation or service function that must remain clear.
Details for your enquiry
Provide photographs of suspected gaps where safely accessible, building materials and relevant survey findings.
Rodent proofing: questions and answers
Can every hole simply be filled?
No. A proofing survey needs to distinguish pest entry points from ventilation, drainage and service openings. The proposed materials and repair sequence should protect the building's intended functions and account for existing activity.
What should I have ready for rodent proofing?
Provide photographs of suspected gaps where safely accessible, building materials and relevant survey findings.
What affects the quotation for rodent proofing?
The number and size of gaps, suitable materials, repair access and associated building work affect the proofing price. Confirm what the inspection, treatment and any follow-up include before booking.
