PEST DETERRENT SOLUTIONS IN EDINBURGH

At Probuild Contracts Ltd, we provide reliable and effective pest deterrent systems for homes and businesses throughout Edinburgh. Our expert team understands how pests can damage property, compromise safety, and create unwanted stress. Whether you’re dealing with birds, rodents, or other nuisances, we offer professional solutions tailored to your property. As trusted roofers and building contractors, we ensure every system is installed with precision and care, protecting your roof and building from infestations while maintaining the aesthetics and integrity of your property.

​

​We offer a comprehensive range of bird deterrent methods designed to suit different building types and locations. Bird netting is one of the most reliable solutions, ideal for preventing birds from gaining access to specific areas like roof spaces, balconies, or loading bays. This discreet yet durable option provides long-term protection without harming the birds.

COMPREHENSIVE PEST CONTROL FOR ROOFS​

Pests often target roofs and loft spaces, causing damage to tiles, insulation, and gutters. Our pest control for roofs service focuses on prevention and protection. We assess your property to identify potential risks and install deterrent systems that prevent birds, rodents, and other pests from accessing vulnerable areas.

 

From pigeon netting to rodent prevention systems, our installations are durable, effective, and discreet. We work with both residential and commercial clients, providing long-term solutions that minimise damage and maintenance costs

BIRD SPIKES, NETTING, AND MORE

For more targeted protection on ledges, parapets, solar panels, signs, and beams, we install bird spikes that physically prevent birds from settling. These are a safe and humane solution that simply makes surfaces uncomfortable to land on. In more visually sensitive areas, we can also install tensioned wire systems — an unobtrusive method that deters birds from perching without affecting the building’s appearance.

​

​Another highly effective option is optical gel — a non-toxic product that creates a multi-sensory deterrent, making treated surfaces appear unsafe to birds due to the way it reflects ultraviolet light. Where appropriate, we may also recommend ultrasonic devices that emit high-frequency sound waves, disrupting bird activity without causing distress to humans or pets.

TAILORED SOLUTIONS FOR EVERY PROPERTY

No two properties are the same, which is why we offer bespoke pest deterrent systems. Our experienced team evaluates your building’s structure, roof type, and surrounding environment to recommend the best strategy. Whether it’s a high-rise residential building, a commercial warehouse, or a historic property, we deliver solutions that fit your needs.

 

With Probuild Contracts Ltd, you can trust that your property is in capable hands, protected by systems installed by skilled roofers who understand the importance of quality workmanship.

Used Probuild for a repair to my guttering. They came out to give an estimate within a few days, were polite and professional and very reasonable. The work was carried out a few weeks later when I was at work. The repair looks great and blends in with the original guttering. A few days later I received the invoice. No hesitation in recommending this company.

Very professional and quick. Very easy to communicate with them and arrange quotes and invoices. The person that fixed our roof was polite, respectful of our house and friendly with our dog. He also made no mess and left everything clean and tidy. Very happy to recommend them.

Quickly responded to our enquiry and provided a comprehensive inspection with photos and a very competitive quote. Work commenced quickly and the job was completed on time. The job was reasonably large - chimney stack repair and render, gable end wall repair and render, rear wall strip, repair and render. All six residents (block of flats) happy with the work and the 10 Yr guarantee supplied.
