A large market town on the edge of Sherwood Forest country, Mansfield has older town-centre property and many estates. Pigeons use ledges, canopies and porch roofs alike.
Older frontages in a market town carry plenty of detail: cornices, window heads, signs and canopies. Pigeons roost on them and droppings build up below, affecting customers and staff. We survey the front and the rear yard, since birds often nest above service doors, and propose proofing that suits the premises. Rear service yards behind town-centre premises are often the quietest and most popular nesting spots.
Houses on the surrounding estates face more typical issues around porches, garage roofs and gutters. Trees at the edge of the forest country can add perching spots. Wild birds are protected, so our methods are lawful and humane. Fixed prices and free advice apply, and commercial customers can have a free written inspection report. Large estates make it easy for flocks to move between roofs, so neighbours acting together helps.
We can assess it and propose methods that avoid unnecessary damage. If there are restrictions on alterations, tell us at the start and we will take them into account. Trees near the forest edge provide cover, and we note which branches overhang a roof when surveying.
Pigeons can breed through much of the year, with nesting often peaking in spring and summer. Droppings and roosting continue in winter, so proofing is useful year-round. If you run a food business, we can also advise on how proofing fits with wider pest prevention.
No. Proofing is designed to stop birds landing or nesting, and the methods used must be lawful.

Cockroaches are rarely seen first. Droppings, an odd smell and a single insect in the corner at midnight usually mean many more are hiding behind the units.
