Roof rat exclusion in Estero

A newer home isn't always a sealed home. Roof rats find the small gaps builders leave behind. We find them first, and seal them for good.

Open gap where an AC line enters a soffit

Newer construction still has gaps

Much of Estero is newer planned communities with tile roofs, attached garages and screened lanais. It's easy to assume a newer house is tight. In practice, small openings are common: where rooflines meet at a roof return, where AC lines and plumbing pass through the wall or soffit, and at the bottom corners of the garage door.

Nearby construction sites and construction or landscape debris piles give roof rats cover close to finished homes, and preserve land and palms bring them right up to the roofline.

Because the work is on the outside of your home, we keep it neat. Every entry point is sealed with stainless steel and exterior-grade materials.

Where roof rats get into Estero homes

  • AC line chases: like the open gap in the photo above, where the line enters the soffit.
  • Roof returns: small openings where rooflines meet.
  • Soffit edges at tile roofs: gaps where the soffit meets the tile.
  • Garage door corners: attached garages give rats a ground-level way into the house.
  • Lanai tie-ins: where the screened lanai meets the roof.
  • Exhaust vents: dryer and bath vents without a tight cover.

Roof rats come in low too. See garage door seal repair, or read more about how rat exclusion works.

What homeowners say

“Paul did the exclusion work for rodents in my attic. He was easy to communicate with, up front with his pricing, sealed the house the same day I contacted him and he came back several times to make sure the rodents were gone and that I was satisfied.”
