What we deal with

What we deal with

This is a limited service rather than a full pest control operation, and it is deliberately focused on the problems that come in through the roof. If it is not something we do, we will say so rather than waste your time.

  • Wasp and hornet nests
  • Rats and mice
  • Squirrels in the loft
  • Birds nesting in roofs and behind solar panels
  • Nesting and fouling around chimney stacks
  • Gulls on flat roofs

What you get

What is included

Getting rid of what is in there is only half the job. If the hole they came in through is still open, they come back, usually the following season.

  • Treatment of the active problem
  • Full inspection of the roof line, soffits and stack to find the entry point
  • Entry points proofed properly, not stuffed with wire wool
  • Anti-nesting wire and mesh to solar panels and roof edges
  • Chimney cowls to keep birds out of the stack
  • Damaged tiles and soffits repaired while we are up there
  • Nesting material and fouling cleared and disposed of
  • Advice on what will bring them back, in plain terms
Roof proofing work in Essex
How it works

How it runs

STEP 01

Call

Describe the noise, where it is and when you hear it. That narrows it down fast.

STEP 02

Inspect and treat

Deal with the active problem, then find how they got in.

STEP 03

Proof it

Close the entry point properly, so it does not happen again next spring.

Our work

Cost

What does it cost?

A wasp nest is a straightforward fixed price. Rodents and birds depend on the access and how much proofing work is needed once we can see the entry point.

Because we do the roof work as well, the proofing usually gets done in the same visit rather than needing a separate roofer afterwards, which is where most people end up paying twice.

We will come out, look at it properly and give you a fixed price in writing.

I’m very happy with the service I received. The lock on the mailbox for my apartment had stopped working, and the relevant team responded very quickly and arranged for it to be replaced. The new lock was fitted promptly, and I was provided with the new keys. The person who carried out the work was extremely polite, professional, and helpful throughout. I really appreciate the quick response and the excellent service. Thank you to the whole team for making the process so easy and efficient. Highly recommended!

Needed leak repairs gutter and roof, contacted WD Property Maintenance they came out next day to quote and completed the works almost immediately at a day and time to suit me. They used a cherry picker saving loads of hassle as no scaffolding, traffic lights permission and pavement re route neeeded as property1is very close the highway. Service was excellent completed quickly and efficiently despite being an awkward job Highly recommend

We had WD Property Maintenance come out and clean our gutters, solar panels, and put up some anti-nesting wire. While he was on the roof he also spotted some erosion with our chimney stack and fixed it for us. He took before and after pictures so we could clearly see the work which had been done. We're really happy with the work, team were professional, quick and reasonably priced. Would recommend and would have back again for any further works needed in the future.

William and his team were of the highest quality. The work they carried out was incredibly quick, professional, and very tidy (in what is clearly a messy job). The house looks brand new and I couldn't recommend them more highly. The cost was incredibly competitive as well. 10/10. They even carried out extra little bits at a moments notice and without surcharging extras. The after and before pictures speak for themselves.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you do full commercial pest contracts?

No. This is a limited service focused on roof-related problems. For a full contract you want a dedicated pest control firm, and we will say so.

I can hear scratching in the loft. What is it?

Time of day is the clue. Daytime is usually squirrels or birds, night is usually rodents. We will confirm on the inspection.

Will you seal up the entry point?

Yes, and properly. That is the part that matters and the part most treatments skip.

Can you stop birds nesting under my solar panels?

Yes. Anti-nesting wire around the panel edges is the standard fix and it is a permanent one. See solar panel bird proofing for how that job runs.

How fast can you come out?

Same-day callback, and wasp nests we try to deal with within 24 hours.

Do you need scaffolding, and is it included?

Anything beyond a small repair within safe ladder reach needs scaffold or a tower. Where it is needed it is included in the quoted price, not added later.
