How Do We Seal Your Property Permanently?

Our comprehensive process begins with a detailed site survey. One of our highly trained technicians, backed by over 155 years of combined team experience, will conduct a thorough internal and external inspection of your property in Kearsley. We look for tell-tale signs of activity and, more importantly, identify entry points such as gaps in brickwork, broken air bricks, or damaged drainage systems.Once identified, we use professional-grade materials to block these routes effectively:Stainless steel mesh: To prevent gnawing through air vents and gaps.Specialist sealants: Durable materials that withstand the elements.Concrete and mortar: For structural repairs to brickwork and foundations.This eco-friendly treatment ensures that no harmful chemicals are used unnecessarily, protecting your family, pets, and the local Lancashire environment. Finally, we provide a full aftercare report and advice on how to keep your property unattractive to future pests.

Protecting Your Property from Damage and Disease

Choosing professional rodent proofing offers numerous long-term advantages. Firstly, it protects your property value and structural integrity. Rodents are known to gnaw through electric cables, wood, and plastic piping, which can lead to devastating fires or floods. By securing the exterior of your building, you prevent these costly repairs before they occur.Secondly, professional proofing stops the transmission of dangerous diseases. Rodents are vectors for Salmonellosis, Hantavirus, and Weils disease (Leptospirosis). By investing in proofing, you are choosing a proactive solution that saves money on repeated reactive treatments. Restoring your peace of mind is our priority, allowing you to live and work in a secure, hygienic environment.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional rodent proofing and exclusion services in Blackburn & Lancashire

Can I just use expanding foam to seal the holes myself?

+

We strongly advise against this. Rats and mice can chew through standard expanding foam, plastic, and even thin wood with ease. Professional rodent proofing involves using materials like stainless steel mesh and bite-resistant compounds that rodents simply cannot get through. Doing it yourself often leads to a false sense of security while the problem continues behind the scenes.

How do I know if the rats are coming from the drains?

+

If you have a recurring rat problem but your walls and windows seem solid, the drains are the most likely culprit. We use CCTV drain inspections to look for collapsed pipes or redundant junctions where rats might be nesting. If we find a fault, we can install one-way rat valves that allow waste out but stop rats from swimming up into your property.

Is rodent proofing expensive?

+

While there is an upfront cost for the materials and labour, proofing is much cheaper than paying for repeated pest control visits every few months. It is a one-time investment that protects your home from damage and keeps your family safe. We provide a free quote and a clear breakdown of the work needed to secure your specific property.

What is the difference between pest control and rodent exclusion?

+

Standard pest control usually focuses on "knockdown"—using traps or bait to kill the rodents currently there. Rodent exclusion is a more permanent solution. It involves the physical modification of your building to prevent any future entry. We believe the best approach is a combination of both: clearing the current infestation and then making sure it can never happen again.
