Our Wildlife Damage Repair Process
Full Damage Assessment
We inspect the complete affected area — not just the entry point — and document every item of damage with photos and measurements. We provide a written damage report and repair proposal.
Wildlife Removal & Exclusion
Animals are removed humanely and all entry points are sealed with commercial-grade materials. Damage repair begins only after the structure is secured against re-entry.
Structural & Cosmetic Repair
All identified damage is repaired by our crew to a finished standard. Exterior repairs match existing material colors and textures where possible. All work is documented with completion photos.
Final Inspection & Documentation
We walk the completed repairs with you and provide a full written record of all work performed — useful for insurance claims, home sale documentation, or future reference.
Professional Work:
All of our wildlife damage repairs are performed with the highest degree of professionalism. Believe me, we've seen the work of fellow wildlife trapping companies - we are often called in to take care of the problems they've failed to solve. We take care to do the repairs correctly - we want them to be 100% critter-proof, we want care taken to ensure no damage to the home - keeping in mind important issues such as attic ventilation and water drainage, and we want the repairs to look good. We've done work on every kind of home and every kind of architecture.
In this photo, we are closing off the open areas around the perimeter of a Spanish barrel tile roof. We are screwing in a steel screen to block off a gap between the gutter and open tiles that rats and squirrels were using to enter the house. It takes real attention to detail and a mind toward professionalism to make the repairs solid and attractive. In almost all cases, our roof repairs can't even be seen from the ground - We aim to restore the home to its original condition, only better - now totally sealed against animal entry, for good.
Hard to Reach Places:
It takes a lot of experience and knowledge of architecture and knowledge of wildlife in order to make sure a house is 100% sealed against wild critters. If just one area is left open, if we fail to find just a single spot that animals can take advantage of, then new wildlife will be able to get into the home. We specialize in inspecting every last square inch of the building in order to find all of those secret spots that animals use to get in. We then find that last hard-to-reach and hard-to-see area, and seal it shut to solve the problem.
No matter what we have to crawl into, over, under, or through, we'll reach those spots that the animals use as a doorway to your attic. To the right, there's a photo of us replacing an open soffit. A roofer would have charged at least quadruple what we charged to install brand new soffit, and we do it better than a roofer does - we bolt it in to make sure that raccoons can't simply tear it out. We don't mind working under houses, hanging over the edges of ten story buildings, squirming my way through tight attic spaces that no one could reach: you name it, we've fixed it.
We Warranty Our Repairs:
We frequently work on homes at which the frustrated homeowner has already hired several other companies with no results. We have all the right tools for the job - from flexible drill bits to long-barrel sealant devices, we can reach and seal all of those impossible to get to nooks and crannies. we make sure that the repairs are done correctly. For example, rodents such as rats and squirrels love to chew. They also sniff the air and detect airflow coming out of the attic - they sense the change in odor, temperature, and humidity, and they know that there's a nice place inside in which to live. We not only seal off any rodent entry holes with steel - which they can't chew through, but we also use a sealant to block off that air flow, so that they don't even know about it and attempt to chew. we've learned over the years which types of repairs are necessary, and how to do them correctly in order to keep out the wild critters.

The repairs are a vital part of the nuisance wildlife control process. In many cases, we simply cannot perform the job correctly if we don't seal off the entry holes. For example, if you've got squirrels in your attic, we usually seal off all of the spots on the roof through which they can enter, and we identify the main point of ingress/egress. we then mount a special repeating trap right on that hole, and it catches every single squirrel as it comes out.
We couldn't use this method if we left other entry points all over the roof. Gaps in roof vent screens, soffit screens, areas where eaves meet against the roof, ridge caps, unfitted plumbing stacks, gable vents, there's usually all sorts of areas that animals can use to get into a house. There's rarely just one spot. Our work ensures that we not only trap and remove the current wildlife problem, but that you won't ever have such a problem again.
