Chimney animal work in Lake Davis/Greenwood homes

Chimney swifts are protected birds

Chimney swifts nest inside chimneys, gluing small twig nests to the flue wall. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service notes they are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which covers the birds, their eggs and active nests. That means an active swift nest stays put. We confirm what is nesting before anyone disturbs it, and the chimney is cleaned and capped after the birds leave for the season. Once the birds have left, removing the old nest and capping the flue is lawful and keeps the chimney clear.

Backed by our satisfaction guarantee

Cleanup, sweeping and cap installation are covered by our workmanship warranty and our 100% satisfaction guarantee. If the finished work falls short in any way, let us know and our crew returns to fix it. Any service you book within 72 hours after the free inspection is 10% off, and the inspection comes first, so you see the full plan before deciding. The discount is written into the estimate, so the price you approve already reflects it. Our satisfaction guarantee covers the cleanup, the sweep and the cap, which are the parts of the job we control.

The screen also stops embers

The screen on a cap does two jobs. It keeps animals out, and on a wood-burning chimney it catches larger embers before they leave the flue. A torn screen fails at both. That is one more reason to replace a damaged screen promptly and to size it to the code range, which balances protection against keeping the flue open enough to draw. We check both jobs of the screen whenever we inspect the cap. On a wood-burning fireplace, a torn screen can also let larger embers land on the roof around the chimney.

Protecting your room during cleanup

Chimney cleanup after an animal can be messy, so the room is protected before work begins. We lay down drop cloths, cover the hearth and furniture near the fireplace and keep the fireplace opening covered while material comes down the flue. Debris is bagged inside the fireplace, and the area is cleaned before we leave your Lake Davis/Greenwood home. If anything was soiled before we arrived, we point it out so it can be dealt with. Tell us about rugs or furniture near the fireplace that you would like moved or covered before work starts.

Your Lake Davis/Greenwood chimney animal questions, answered

What if an animal is already inside my Lake Davis/Greenwood home?

Close interior doors to confine it, keep people and pets away and open an exterior door in that room if it is safe. A local wildlife service can help with the house, and we handle the chimney once the room is clear.

Is a bat in the house a health concern?

The CDC advises contacting a doctor or the health department after possible contact with a bat, including waking to find one in the room. Do not handle it. We take care of the chimney side once the room is clear.
