Bird Proofing Services
Professional pigeon and bird proofing for roofs and buildings across Kent, Sussex and Surrey.
About Our Bird Proofing Services
Birds — particularly pigeons, starlings and gulls — can cause significant problems when they nest in or on your roof. Droppings are acidic and damage tiles, flashings and stonework. Nesting material blocks gutters and ventilation. And the noise and mess associated with established colonies can make living or working in the building unpleasant. In some cases, bird infestations create genuine health hazards from droppings, parasites and contaminated insulation.
Radiant Roofing provides professional bird proofing solutions to prevent birds from accessing, nesting in and damaging your roof. We install mesh guards, spike systems, netting and vent covers that block entry points without harming the birds. As roofers, we understand the structure of roofs and can identify every gap, vent and opening that birds exploit — something general pest control companies often miss.
If you are hearing birds in your loft space, finding droppings on your roof or walls, or you can see nesting material around your eaves and soffits, contact us for a free assessment. We will identify the entry points, recommend the most effective solution and provide a clear quotation for the work.

Roofers, Not Pest Controllers
As roofing specialists, we understand roof construction and know exactly where birds gain access. We identify and seal every entry point — not just the obvious ones — so the problem does not simply move to another part of the roof.
Humane Methods
We use exclusion techniques — mesh, guards, clips and netting — that prevent birds from entering without harming them. Our solutions comply with wildlife protection laws and are designed to be permanent, not temporary.
Combined With Roof Repairs
Bird proofing often coincides with other roofing work. We can combine bird proofing with tile repairs, ridge work, soffit replacement or gutter cleaning to address everything in a single visit and keep costs down.
Guaranteed Protection
All bird proofing installations are backed by our workmanship guarantee. The materials we use are UV-stable, corrosion-resistant and designed to last for years without maintenance or deterioration.

Frequently Asked Questions
The cost depends on the size of the roof, the number of entry points that need sealing and how accessible the roofline is. A typical residential bird proofing job costs between £300 and £1,000. Properties with complex rooflines or extensive gaps may cost more. We provide free, written quotations after inspecting the property.
We most commonly proof against pigeons, starlings, sparrows and jackdaws, which are the species that most frequently nest in roof spaces in the South East. Our solutions also deter gulls from nesting on flat roofs and commercial buildings. We use methods appropriate to the species involved and always comply with wildlife protection legislation.
Yes, when done correctly. The mesh guards, clips and closures we install are made from durable, UV-stable materials designed to last for many years. Unlike deterrent sprays or ultrasonic devices, physical exclusion systems provide a permanent barrier that does not degrade or need replenishing.
Yes. Bird droppings are acidic and can erode tile surfaces, degrade lead flashings and stain stonework. Nesting material blocks gutters and roof vents, leading to water damage and condensation. In severe cases, large quantities of droppings and nesting material in the loft space can contaminate insulation and create health hazards. Prevention is far cheaper than dealing with the damage.
We provide bird proofing services across the whole of Kent, Sussex and Surrey, including Tunbridge Wells, Sevenoaks, Tonbridge, Maidstone, Crawley, East Grinstead, Haywards Heath, Reigate and the surrounding areas. If you are unsure whether we cover your location, give us a call.
