PEST PROOF RAT SURVEY
Pestprooflondon surveyors are qualified in drainage and humane pest control, incentivised to find a sustained solution, enabling us to offer a 12 month guarantee.
The surveyor normally promoted from being our best proofing engineer is essential in understanding and completing a comprehensive assessment.
HOW THE PROCESS WORKS
The average survey takes between 1-3 hours.
Using advanced technology 4 cctv drain and handheld cameras. Checking full drainage systems, service ducting, pipe penetration and dye testing looking for redundant drains.
There are multiple possibilities for rat entry within properties, however whenever rats start entry into a building fabric it most often starts with drains.We often see both above ground and below ground entry, each type has a reactive process and specific material required.
Once entry is gained the rodent improves his entry via gullys, burrows and often concealed areas like decking.Persevering to either feed or to nest, the longer this is left the more the rodent improves his environment.
Hand written drain map is then designed:
Redundant drains and manholes are then found using Sonde, indicating depth and exact location.
AFTER THE SURVEY
Surveys enable a tangible overview of the situation and action required, the drain cameras and hand held are using sophisticated technology to solve a complex problem.
Following the survey we then send a report outlining what was found and the entry points that require attention and a corresponding quotation, if you proceed with the works the survey charge is refunded.
DRAINAGE PROOFING
Repairs to manholes, sealing lintel bridges, sealing redundant drains and all associated below ground works, finalised with a Va Approved Nordisk drain valve in the correct location..
EXTERNAL PROOFING
Vents, gullys, rainwater, surface water, door seals, flashing and roof entry, burrows, checking and sealing current used entry points within the building fabric and sealing each and every possibility, to stop entry in the future.
INTERNAL PROOFING
Vents, gullys, rainwater, surface water, door seals, flashing and roof entry, burrows, checking and sealing current used entry points within the building fabric and sealing each and every possibility, to stop entry in the future.
Until this defect and potential others are remedied then the problem is ongoing, for the homeowner the situation will deteriorate.
Poison, traps and bait won’t works as new individuals use the old entry points.
With the proofing model the rodent hits mesh, proofing and sealed entry points. The rodent smell dissipates discouraging motivation and any new entry going forward fails. The new rodent moves on..
