A1 Animal Removal, Inc.

We had problems with squirrels in our attic a while back and one of our daughters arranged for a squirrel removal service to clear up the problem. We ended up having a very bad case of buyers remorse as the removal service person (who owned the company himself) did a very shoddy job and the squirrels returned. When we asked the owner to come out to repair the job, it took a very long time for him to return our many many calls, and despite his assurances that we should give it "a couple of days" this situation just got worse. In the end we feel we were "bitten" not by the wildlife in our attic, but by the shoddy workmanship by this other company. Our daughter felt so badly, and we felt badly for her also because she was only trying to help. Thank G-d by chance I saw this advertisement from A Animal Removal and the great reviews on his workmanship. We could not be more satisfied with the quality and speed of their work. I would recommend them to anyone and am very very happy to endorse them. I don't have problems with squirrels now, they repaired the shoddy job the other guy slapped together, and have satisfaction knowing I paid for a job well done.

I found Chris from this forum, and it's a very professional job that Chris did for us. I feel I must give something back in terms of a review, as well as our lesson learned. Bottom-line is, trust this professional.

We had a squirrel in our attic. (It would turn out that 3 of our 6 roof vents were chewed open.) We called around for advice and quotes. We made a mistake - in hindsight - of hiring a roofer to replace all the roof vents with metal ones. We put a radio in the attic and played it loud for the whole day, banged around, and did most everything that we thought useful to ensure that there's nothing inside when the roofer replaced the roof vents.

That turned out to be a mistake. Overnight, the squirrel came back, and chewed a new hole around the rubber fitting of one of the pumbling exhaust pipes.

It was then that we realized we had to call in the professional. We called Chris. He's professional and courteous, and put us at ease from the start. He told us that it must be a nest inside that had the squirrel come back and work so hard to regain entry. He assured us that he would fix everything, and we would not have to hire any roofer. He would also provide us with a year's warranty.

Chris showed up 2 days later. He climbed up onto the roof, did a thorough inspection, replaced the rubber fittings of the other exhaust piples with sheet metal, and left a one-way trap door around the hole. He came back 2 weeks later to remove the trap door, and sealed the hole. Job well done!

What we learned from this experience is that we should have called a professional from the very beginning, rather than mugging around... Luckily, we found Chris who fixed the issue at the end.

Trust this guy. He knows the stuff. We have just recommended Chris to somebody who has the same problem.

Thanks Chris!

Just days before re-roofing our newly purchased house, we discovered we had raccoons living in our attic. Chris came quickly and used a humane one-way door to evict the animals. He then came back the next day to ensure the animals were gone before sealing up their entry holes. To date we seem to have been raccoon-free. Chris was extremely efficient, prompt, effective, humane, and friendly to boot. He was a huge help to us, and I would highly recommend his services to anyone facing a similar quandry.

After a kitchen reno which left us with an uncapped vent and birds in my kitchen cupboard, Chris to the rescue! He came by two days after I called, removed the birds and capped the vent...all quickly, cleanly and for a reasonable price. It was a great experience (although I hope I never have to call him again)!

Chris was a pleasure to deal with, I found him to be knowledgeable, efficient and effective in removing the Raccoon from our roof. In addition repairs to much of the damage have been made while letting us know that the roof needs the attention of a roofing professional.

If we ever have a similar situation, Chris will definitely get the call.

We were worried that whatever was in our roof could be in distress, would cause structural damage, and eventually create unsanitary conditions that could affect our health. The property manager of our townhouse complex got in touch with Chris of A Animal Removal. He responded very promptly to our call. The whole situation made us very anxious, but when Chris arrived, he put us at ease with his polite and confident demeanour. The mother raccoon and babies were safely removed in a humane and efficient manner. Thanks, Chris. You deserve an A+!

Chris gave the situation his immediate attention! His 20 years experience allowed him to make an immediate assessment of the problems and the quickest least destructive solution. His efforts included the removal of offspring, and total repair of the damage created. The conscientious effort of this gentleman cannot be improved upon.

Last year I had squirrels in my walls....I thought they were going to come through... I called Chris based on the reviews here at homestars.

I can't say enough about Chris...He came right over and found the hole put a one-way on and searched the roof and surrounding area and fixed what would have been another entry point at no charge. I appreciated the fact that he did that because it would have been another chance for him to fix another hole at my place in the future for an additional cost.

I never forgt that..This year we had Racoons and another episode with sqirrels - in an entirely different spot. The squirrels were an easy fix.. a small hole that he took care of...The Racoons however came in throughthe overhang from the neighbours side of the semi-detached. I told the neighbour that I had a great guy and would call - they choose another company...when Chris came over - he fixed our area up and had a look at the neghbours -their hole was already broken again by the racoons - it seems that the patch wasn't secured properly.

All that to say - that if you want the job done right the first time by someone that you can trust - Give Chris a call. I would recommend him to anyone at anytime.

I hope I don't have anymore racoons or sqirrels in my house ---But at least I know who to call when I do.

We had raccoons nesting on the roof. I called Chris based upon the recommendations in Homestars. And I was very happy to see that all the positive comments are all true.
He installed a one-direction door for the raccoons to get out. AQ couple of days later we realized that their is still an animal
inside, he came without delay and installed also a door for a squirrel. We had one of those rare cases where both animals got in. The problem was solved solved to our full satisfaction.
He knows his job. We found Chris reliable, prompt and easy to talk to. We were impressed by the way he full responsibility upon all the aspects of his work, including refinishing professionally the opening in the roof.
10 out of 10.

We recently had the mother of all squirrels in our kitchen vent. Chris with care for the mother and her babies removed them with a professional approach and attitude, cleaned out the vent removed the squirrels with a care and installed a new vent. I would without hesitation recommend Chris to anyone who has an animal in their house that needs removing.
