Why early action matters
Grey squirrels in roof spaces can damage insulation, stored belongings, timber and electrical cables. The access route must be understood before proofing begins.
Daytime roof noises
Gnawed timbers or cables
Disturbed insulation
A clear solution, explained from the start.
The technician inspects the loft, roofline and evidence of nesting or gnawing, then explains lawful control options and the safest sequence for proofing. Entry points should not be sealed while animals remain inside.
Every recommendation is based on the evidence found at the property, occupant safety and the practical route to long-term control.

What to look for
Signs you may need professional help
Daytime roof noises
Heavier running or scratching in lofts is commonly heard around dawn and during daylight.
Gnawed timbers or cables
Fresh chewing damage can affect rafters, stored items and electrical wiring.
Disturbed insulation
Compressed or shredded insulation may indicate nesting and regular movement.
Roof entry damage
Gaps around eaves, tiles, vents and fascia can be enlarged by squirrels.
Droppings in the loft
Dark oblong droppings may accumulate near nesting or feeding areas.
Visible roof activity
Squirrels repeatedly crossing roofs or entering one opening indicate an active route.

How do I know whether the noise is a squirrel?
Squirrels are usually active in daylight and create heavier running or gnawing sounds than mice. An inspection confirms the evidence.
Can you simply seal the entry hole?
Entry points should not be sealed while an animal may remain inside. Control and monitoring must happen in the correct sequence.
Are grey squirrels protected?
Control must comply with UK wildlife law. The technician explains the lawful method appropriate to the situation.
How many visits are needed?
Visit requirements depend on loft access, activity and the chosen control plan.
Can squirrels damage electrics?
Yes. Gnawing can damage cable insulation and should be assessed promptly by an appropriate professional where suspected.
How much does squirrel control cost?
Published pricing starts from £303. Access, programme length and separate proofing can change the final cost.
Do you repair roof entry points?
Accessible proofing can be assessed and quoted separately after control. Roofing repairs may require a specialist contractor.
Do you cover surrounding areas?
Yes. We cover Greater London and many locations beyond the M25, subject to postcode availability.
