A1 Animal Removal, Inc.

A family of raccoons got into the space between the roof and the wall of our 3 floor 1890s semi-detached house. Chris and his partner showed up exactly on time, explained clearly what they were going to do, and went to work setting up a one way trap door and securing all other areas so the raccoons couldn't get back in. The raccoons were out by that night and we haven't seen or heard them since. They were very familiar with our style of home. They did a thorough job, with no damage whatsoever to the house, and the price seems fair. I highly recommend them.

Animals (unknown) got into 3rd floor attic and ripping out insulation. Chris came by (on time) and told us that whomever did our roof last year did not fully seal it and left out the metal. He offered to take pictures with our camera before sealing it himself so we could let the roofer know. He quickly sealed it off, put a one way door on for a couple of weeks and was off. We've also been having problems with raccoons tearing holes in the new rubber membrane roof, causing severe leaking. I called Chris 2 weeks later to ask advice on how to keep them off the roof, and he was glad to offer it. I would highly recommend him.

Mother raccoon got into garage when door accidentally left open and had babies. Then she was chased away and poor babies left trapped on shelf. Chris came and removed then and set up in box so mother can hopefully come back and get them. He also repaired screening in garage from previous squirrel experience and put in a one-way door that other company never installed in case something did get into the house. I would also like to advise that I tried to get the highly rated Kevin from GTA Wildlife Removal several days ago and am still waiting for a call back. This delay probably cost these babies their life. Chris not only immediately answers his phone but was able to come within 24 hours and was right on time for appointment. Great service!

Chris the owner came over with his son on a Sunday morning to remove what we thought was a bird stuck in the range hood vent- turned out to be a bird's nest only. They completely cleaned it out, replaced the broken vent screen and caulked it properly. Chris is extremely knowledgeable and quite professional. I would highly recommend his services and wish that there were more people like him around.

We could see and hear squirrels running on our roof, and it wasn't long before we heard them in the ceiling. I called A Animal Removal on the recommendations of HomeStars. Chris arrived on time (a few minutes early), and projected a friendly and professional image. Chris went on the roof, and found the squirrels had come in through the plumbing stack. He put a one-way door and screen over the stack, as well as over a secondary stack. He even cleaned up the eaves trough! I wish all my contractors and service people were like Chris of A Animal Removal.

I was really pleased with Chris' approach to the situation. Rather than extract the animals by force, he created a situation where they could leave as they normally would but not be able to come back. I was impressed with the way that Chris explained the rationale and showed me what his plan was, what equipment he would use, and what the entire process would be from beginning to end. Very professional and I highly recommend him.

Squirrels found their way into the attic of our semi, and were having a carnival in the walls, driving my wife and I borderline insane.

I found on homestars, and also via a referral from "GTA Animal Control", also top-rated here on homestars. It's always a good sign when one highly rated professional refers another, and Chris didn't disappoint.

Chris showed up on time (early!), assessed the problem and explained the solution. The costs were higher than discussed on the phone, but he took me up the ladder to show the extent of the damage to our eaves and left no doubt that it was a larger than usual job. Instead of needed to patch one section, there was ~40 linear feet on our house, and another 35' on the neighbours (we're in a semi) to be closed up.

Several years ago we had a similar issue, and the guys who fixed it nailed up some short strips of metal. Chris measured the runs, the angle of the roof, and then left to fabricate angled pieces of metal to fit tightly and securely over the gaps.

There's no doubt in my mind he's a pro at this business. You won't be disappointed, and most importantly, the job will be done quickly and thoroughly and the pests will be gone. I've already referred a friend to him, who was also very satisfied.

We can't thank Chris enough for his exceptional prompt,professional removal of a dead raccoon trapped in our closed off chimney.After calling numerous companies,Chris was the only person willing to remove the dead raccoon by cutting a hole in the outside wall of our chimney.He very accurately located where the animal was -neatly cut a square hole in the brick chimney and efficiently proceeded to remove the animal.Chris was kind enough to follow up by recommending an excellent stone mason
who was able to repair our chimney.Chris also checked our air vents on the roof to make sure the problem does not recur.We couldn't have been more relieved and satisfied by a job well done.We have already recommended him to our friends and family.Thank you again Chris!

I live in a semi downtown toronto and had squirrels in my attic, thing was, they were entering through my nieghbours place. Chris was called, within a day he was at my place, reassuring my nieghbours who moved in 2 months ago that he would look after the problem. He installed a one way door and low and behold the squirrels haved moved on. Quick friendly and a good price, what more can you ask for?

Well, I think the title says it all. These gentlemen understood my plight and responded in a VERY timely and extremely professional manner.

I called them Monday morning around 11:00 a.m. with a "dead animal smell" in my basement, and they had the problem resolved by 2:00 the same day. I know they were busy with other calls, but they were quick to comprehend both the nature and extent of my problem and moved into action.

(Understand that within 24 hours my house went from "Hmmm, do you smell something?" to "OMG, does the Westin have a monthly rate?")

They identified the how the rodent got in, removed it, made recommendations on how to block it off, and finally put down some bait so the problem would not be perpetuated.

I have called other pest control companies in the past, but these guys are definitely the way to go.

Funny enough, I felt like I was watching the Maytag repairman leave my house :-)
