Squirrel Control in Great Shelford

Signs You May Need Squirrel Trapping in Great Shelford

• Heavy, confident movement overhead, loudest during daylight hours
• Gnawing at the roofline — soffits, fascia boards, vents or barge boards
• Insulation torn up, compacted or dragged into a heap
• Damaged or stripped electrical cable in the roof space
• Droppings and staining in the loft, or a contaminated water tank
• Squirrels seen using a branch, fence or drainpipe to reach the roof

What the £280 Actually Buys

We would rather set this out properly than have you expecting somebody to arrive, do something and leave.

1. A survey inside and out. The roof space, the roofline, and the routes on to the building — overhanging branches, fences, drainpipes, climbing plants.
2. Identification and a judgement about whether control is warranted at all.
3. Trapping, positioned where the animal is actually moving.
4. Return visits to check the traps, which is a requirement of doing this properly rather than an optional extra.
5. Confirmation that the roof space is clear.
6. Proofing advice, and the proofing itself if you want it from us.

What the fixed price means

• £280 is the price, not a starting figure
• The visits needed to finish the job are in it, not added afterwards
• No call-out fee
• Proofing is priced separately at £180 for up to an hour, so it is your choice whether we do it or your own roofer does

If anything changes the scope — a second roof space, a commercial building — you hear about it before it happens, not on an invoice.

Why Great Shelford Property Owners Call a Professional

A trap set and left is neither effective nor acceptable practice. It is the part of the job that takes the time, and it is the part a DIY attempt almost always skips.
