Bird proofing systems maintenance & repair in Derby
Keep your bird proofing working the way it should, for longer.
Having bird proofing installed is a great first step towards protecting your home or business premises.
But like anything that lives outside and takes the full force of the British weather, it needs looking after. A system that was fitted perfectly a couple of years ago can develop gaps, loose fixings or worn sections over time. Once that happens, it doesn’t take long for birds to find their way back in.
At MSD Pest Control, we offer a professional maintenance and repair service to keep your bird proofing in good shape and doing its job properly.
Whether you’ve had your system installed by another company or by us, we’re happy to come out, assess what you’ve got, and make sure it’s still providing the protection you need.
It’s a small investment that can save you a lot of money and hassle down the line.
Protect your investment
Why you need bird proofing maintenance and repairs
Birds can be persistent pests at your home or workplace.
If there’s a gap in your netting, a section of skirting under your solar panels that’s worked loose, or a spike strip that’s shifted out of position, they’ll find it.
And once they’ve found a way back in, you’re back to square one, with the noise, mess and potential for damage starting all over again.
Regular maintenance and, if necessary, repairs can help you catch any problems early, before they become bigger issues. It also means your bird proofing lasts significantly longer, so you get much better value from your original installation. For businesses in particular, staying on top of your bird proofing is also part of keeping your premises compliant, reducing health and safety risks, and ensuring your site looks professional.
A complete package
What our bird proofing maintenance and repair services cover
When we come out to service your bird proofing system, we’ll carry out a thorough inspection of everything that’s been installed. We won’t just look for obvious damage. We’ll also check for the kind of gradual wear and deterioration that’s easy to miss if you don’t know what you’re looking for.
Here’s what our maintenance and repair services typically involve:
Full system inspection
We check every element of your bird proofing, including any netting, spikes, wire systems, gel or whatever combination has been installed, looking for signs of wear, damage or displacement. We’ll also check your fixings, anchor points and any framework or support structures
Clearing debris and blockages
Over time, netting and other bird proofing measures can accumulate leaves, dirt, feathers and nesting materials. Left in place, this adds weight and stress to your roof and fixings, and can create new spots where birds gather. We clear everything away as part of the service.
Repairing damaged sections
If we find any areas that need attention, like a torn section of netting, a dislodged spike strip or a bird wire that’s lost tension, we’ll repair or replace them on the spot wherever possible. If more extensive work is needed, we’ll let you know what’s involved and give you a clear quote before we proceed.
Checking for new vulnerabilities
Buildings change over time. New gaps can appear as the materials shift, and work carried out by other trades can sometimes compromise your existing bird proofing measures without anyone realising. We’ll flag anything we spot and advise you on the best way to address it.
Reporting and recommendations
After every visit, we’ll give you a clear summary of what we found, what we did, and whether there’s anything you should be aware of going forward. No jargon or unnecessary upselling, just honest, straightforward advice.
A host of benefits
Keep your bird proofing working as it should
Most bird proofing systems are built to last. But like anything, they can wear over time. Regular servicing helps you catch small issues before they become bigger, and more costly, problems. The benefits include:
- Extend the life of your bird proofing measures : Regular servicing helps your bird proofing last years longer than it would without any attention, protecting your original investment.
- Stop birds getting back in: Catching small gaps or weak points early means birds don’t get the chance to re-establish themselves on your property.
- Avoid expensive repairs: A loose fixing or small tear is cheap to sort out. Leaving it until the whole section needs replacing is a different matter entirely.
- Keep your property looking good: Well-maintained bird proofing is discreet and tidy. Worn or damaged systems can look unsightly and draw attention to themselves.
- Stay compliant: For commercial customers with hygiene or health and safety obligations, a well maintained and documented bird proofing system is part of demonstrating due diligence.
- Peace of mind: Knowing your system has been checked over by a professional means you don’t have to worry about it until we’re back next time.
