Pest Control in Hazlemere

Hazlemere, Holmer Green and Widmer End sit on the plateau above High Wycombe, with woodland and commons threaded through the housing rather than sitting beside it, and a high proportion of bungalows and low houses on generous plots.

A bungalow is a genuinely different building to work on, and mostly that works in your favour.

Bungalows

Everything Is Closer

A single-storey roofline is within reach of far more than a two-storey one. Shrubs, hedging and modest garden trees that would be irrelevant against a tall house are viable routes onto a bungalow roof, and a nest at bungalow eaves height is about two and a half metres up — directly above the back door rather than over the bedrooms.

Underneath, the void runs over the whole footprint and the drainage passes through or near it, so the distance from a defect to under your living room is very short. That is why bungalow owners hear things early and clearly, running directly underfoot rather than somewhere distant. Unpleasant, and genuinely useful, because the problem gets found in July rather than September.

The compensations are real: everything is within ladder reach, so inspection and proofing are quicker and cheaper, and cutting back the vegetation that reaches the roof is actually realistic here in a way it is not against a tall house.

One thing to watch: airbricks sit close to the ground on a low building, and a raised border or a relaid path can half-bury them. A buried airbrick is both a ventilation problem and a way in.
