Another appliance venting through the chimney
Some chimneys carry more than one flue, and one of them may serve another appliance in the house. A nest in that flue matters as much as one above the fireplace. Mention every appliance that vents through the chimney when you call. We check each flue for nests and debris, and a blocked appliance flue goes to the top of the list for cleanup. Keep that appliance off if we advise it until its flue has been cleared.
A family-owned team that explains the rules
Orlando Chimney Service is family owned and locally owned. Wildlife rules can be confusing, and we take the time to explain which ones apply to the animal in your chimney and why some steps wait. You get the plan in writing, along with the reasons behind it, from the same local business that does the cleanup and fits the cap. Our chimney animal pros would rather explain a rule twice than leave you guessing. When a step has to wait on the calendar, we also remind you when it is time to schedule it.
Soiled insulation inside a chase
When an animal has nested inside a factory-built chase, the insulation around the pipe can be soiled with droppings and nest material. It may need to come out, which can mean opening the chase from the top or the side. We note what we see during the inspection and price insulation removal separately, since it depends on how far the nesting extends. New insulation, where needed, must keep the clearances the chimney maker specifies around the pipe. Removal and replacement are written up as separate items, so you see what each part involves.
Nest material leaves with us
Nest material, droppings and debris from the flue, the smoke shelf and the firebox are bagged and hauled away when we finish, not left in your trash or on the lawn. Droppings are handled with care, since the CDC notes that disturbing bird and bat droppings can release the spores that cause histoplasmosis. The area around the fireplace is protected while we work, and we clean up before we leave.

Chimney wildlife answers for Lancaster Park homeowners
Can you check the chimney again next year?
Yes. We offer maintenance visits, and an annual inspection is what NFPA 211 asks for, along with clearing any obstruction before the fireplace is used. A yearly visit also shows whether the cap and screen are still sound.
Will a cap stop animals from coming back?
A screened cap that fits the flue closes the flue opening itself. We also look for gaps at the crown, the chase cover and the roofline, and if we find another way in, we explain it and price it separately.
