Chimney Nest & Animal Removal Services

Animal & Nest Removal

Unwanted animals and nests in your chimney can cause significant problems, from obstructing airflow to posing fire hazards and structural damage. At Chimney Specialists, we offer expert Chimney Nest & Animal Removal services to safely and humanely address these issues. Birds, squirrels, raccoons, and other wildlife often seek shelter in chimneys, creating nests that can block ventilation or lead to dangerous creosote buildup.

Our certified technicians use specialized tools and techniques to remove animals and nests without harming the creatures or damaging your chimney. Don’t let wildlife disrupt your chimney’s function or risk your safety—contact us today for prompt and professional services.

Steps To Take

While you’re waiting for us to arrive, there are a few things you can do in the meantime to avoid further issues:

• Close up your fireplace in case he spots an escape route right into your living room.

• Enclose the area where your fireplace is located to contain the situation should the animal make its way into your home.

• And above all else: Never, ever light a fire in the fireplace to “smoke” the animal out. Besides the fact that it’s inhumane and causes the animal (and possibly its young) to burn to death, it can also cause severe damage to your flue in the process of escaping. If the animal is stuck, there’s no chance for him to escape. Just don’t do it.

Safe Animal Removal Inspection Process

Once your visitor has been served his walking papers, it’s important to have your chimney inspected for signs of any damage caused by the incident. That’s where the professionals at The Chimney Sweep can help. One of our expert professionals will thoroughly examine the inner workings of your chimney to make sure they are in great shape and undamaged by your furry or feathered guest. If your rain cap is damaged or missing, causing the animal to get in the chimney in the first place, we can fix or replace it to prevent it from happening again.
