Animal removal details for Cutler Bay homes
Branches that give animals a route to the top
Trees and shrubs close to the chimney make it easy for climbing animals to reach the top. Branches resting on the roof act as bridges for squirrels and raccoons.
Trimming trees is outside our work, but we point out any branches that seem to give animals access. Keeping them trimmed back helps the cap and screen do their job. We note it on the written record so you can arrange it with whoever looks after your trees. A cap is harder to defeat when animals cannot reach it easily.
Approving animal removal after your free inspection
The free inspection establishes what is in the chimney and what the work involves. You get an estimate for each step that is ours to do, with time to ask about any line.
Approve any service on that estimate within 72 hours of your free inspection and it comes with a 10% discount. The window starts at your own inspection. If part of the plan must wait for the animal, the discount still applies to work you approved in that time.
Arranging chimney animal removal in Cutler Bay
Get in touch by phone or through the form, with your address in Cutler Bay and a description of what you are hearing or seeing. We arrange a free inspection and tell you what to do until then, such as keeping the damper closed.
On the day, we identify the animal as far as possible and explain what the rules allow at that time. You receive an estimate for each step that is ours to do and a clear view of any step that is not.
Your record after animal removal in Cutler Bay
When the work at your home in Cutler Bay is finished, you should know what animal was in the chimney and how it left. You should also know what was cleaned out and how the top was closed.
Those points are written down for you, along with any damage we noted and the cap we fitted. Keep the record with your house papers. If activity starts again, it tells you and us where to begin. It also shows which entries were closed.

Asking about animal removal in Cutler Bay
Do you clean the chimney after the animal is gone?
Yes. Nest material, droppings and debris are removed from the smoke shelf, damper and flue, bagged at the fireplace and hauled away. The flue is brushed and then looked at for damage.
Where does a removed animal go afterward?
Florida's nuisance wildlife rule limits where a caught animal may be released, and some species may not be moved at all. We explain what will happen to the animal before any removal starts.
What should I do if an animal gets into the house?
Close off the room, keep people and pets out and open an outside door or window from that room if there is one. Do not try to catch it. Our 24/7 emergency line is there if you cannot contain it.
