Local chimney animal removal for West Colonial homes

What the chimney inspection covers

Our free inspection for an animal problem looks at the chimney from the roof and from inside. The written findings say what we saw, what the rules allow and what we recommend, item by item. The inspection also notes anything we could not see, so you know what the findings cover.

• The cap, screen and crown or chase cover at the top
• Signs of nesting, droppings, fur or feathers
• The damper, smoke shelf and firebox from below
• Every flue in the chimney, including appliance flues

Why we do not promise a removal date

It would be easy to promise the animal will be gone tomorrow. For protected birds, bats in maternity season or a mother with young, that promise could break the law or leave young animals to die in the flue. We tell you what can happen now, such as sealing the damper, cleaning the firebox and planning the cap, and what has to wait for the animal to leave or for the rules to allow it. If the timing changes, for example because the animals leave sooner than expected, we move the next steps up.

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.

The free inspection comes first

The inspection for an animal problem costs nothing, and neither does the written estimate. We look at the chimney from the roof and from inside, tell you what is in it and what the rules allow, and price each step. There is no obligation to book the work. If we find the chimney empty and the cap sound, we tell you that too. Either way, you leave the visit knowing what is in the chimney and what comes next.
