Service

Lui was great. Professional and efficient. I had another company come to my house and they said the job wasn't possible. Lui called me the day before to schedule an appointment and the morning of to confirm and was on time. He came and found the raccoons right away. Removed them with no damage to the house or harm to the raccoons. He provide a couple options to prevent the raccoons from coming back and that was it. Great job and great work. Thanks again Lui I could have a good night sleep tonight.

Thank you Enzo for this beautiful review
Yes unfortunately many will tell customers they can't do anything until the babies are fully mobile ( 9-11weeks old)
The will set one-way door and let the mother do more damage to your place for her to try or get back in . This is where you need to pick carefully your wildlife controls companies as some are there to make tones a money for not doing much or the one like us the will do anything its need to be done properly, knowledge of house/building and wildlife are very important to get the job done properly
I was more than happy to get those little monster out of there with mom

Squirrels in roof

Louis found a gaping hole in our neighbour's roof that was perfect for squirrels to sneak into our roofs. He installed a one way exit and and patched it up later. He is friendly and courteous, and did a great job. Merci Louis!

Removing Raccoon from the attic

I heard raccoon activities on my attic. I was not sure if they are only adults or some babies too. I called A-1 and booked an appointment. Louis came right on time. He was an experienced gentleman. He asked me some noise related questions and told me that it could be only adults. But when he went up in the attic luckily no raccoon was there at that time however he saw the hole where they were going in and out. He came down and explained me everything about the work needs to be done and extra prevention steps so that they would not be able to come again. Then he explained all assosicted cost. Once he got my approval he started his work right away. It took him about 2 hrs all together to finish his work. He installed one way door in the attic so that the animal would go out and never be able to come back. After 5 days he came back to remove the door and patch the attic back.
He did a great job! I have no issues since then. Thank you Louis.

Excellent Job

We had a raccoon and her family in our attic and the freeloaders weren't paying any rent so we called Louis. He was able to come within 24 hours and kept us up to date on his arrival time so we weren't waiting.

He was courteous, professional and did the job quickly, professionally and without harming the animals in the process.

He takes pride in doing a great job. I highly recommend him.

Raccoon Removal

Amazing! Louis is truly a master of this trade! We had a raccoon living in the ceiling of our brand new home. First we had another company, that shall remain nameless, come out and install a one way door. They were on site for about 5 minutes, did ZERO inspection and completely disregarded my concerns that there was in fact a nest with cubs in the ceiling. Sure enough for two nights we watched on camera as the poor mother raccoon tried relentlessly to make her way back inside. When we had chirping noises in the ceiling, we knew we had to act. We were lucky to come across A-1 Wildlife Removal. Louis answered my call and promised to arrive the same day. He was courteous to call me and inform me in advance that he would be running late, which I appreciated (having dealt with tradesmen a lot this in itself is an extreme rarity!). On arrival he quickly got to work. We both agreed that the ceiling would need to be cut to expose the nest. He worked quickly but carefully and protected my home and ensured that there was minimal mess. He cleaned out the latrine and the nest and was able to find 3 cubs, which had been separated from their mother. Cubs were placed in a warmed box outside for the mom to retreat. We thought this was the end of it but soon after he left I heard the all-too-familiar scurrying of the mother raccoon in the ceiling (so much for the one way door that the other "experts had installed!). A short phone call to Louis and in no time at all he was back at our place. He ingeniously used one of the cubs to lure the mother raccoon out of the house. Finally the house is raccoon-free, the mother is reunited safely with her cubs and the access point is securely closed off. All thanks to Louis! This was a perfect example of a master of his trade in complete contrast to the complete amateurs I dealt with first. My only regret is that I did not call Louis first!

I highly, highly recommend A-1 Wildlife Removal

Thanks you so much Roman for this very descriptive review of what unfortunately happen and I was more than happy to be able to rescue those littles one out of your ceiling ( if the previous company would of listened to your concern they would of find out where the little where , but more often then other those companies don't care about theirs customers and what ever was living inside...it's all about how much they make at the end of the day and not how well and successful the job was done)
It's was a real pleasure to help you out Roman

Raccoon removal from attic

A-1 Checkmate arrived on time as promised. They quickly scoped out the problem and advised what my options were. My raccoon problem was dealt with quickly and efficiently and the roof damaged repaired. Prevention screens were installed so i don't think I will have a raccoon problem again. Recommended.

Raccoon

Saw a raccoon on my roof and noticed a spot where it may have had access to my attic. Called Louis after reading the great reviews and wasn't disappointed. Louis was available early the next morning and called to advise he was on his way. After a quick explanation of his services he confirmed the entry point, inspected the entire roof and inside the attic. He even pointed out a roofing issue which could provide problems for me down the road!

He then provided some options including some additional areas that may turn into entry points in the future. At no point did I feel pressured to pay for anything I didn't need.

He set the one way door and advised will return in about 10 days to have it removed.

Overall I'm very satisfied with his service and expertise. Looking forward to being raccoon free from now on!
