Excellent

Had a raccoon problem in my garage. Chris and his helper were amazing, they put a temporary door so raccoon could get out but not back in and returned with matching aluminum siding to make everything look like new. Honest, reliable truly excellent service. Do not hesitate to call them.

Squirrel removal in a tricky spot

I was referred to Chris after trying to find someone to fix some fallen pieces of soffit and discovering that squirrels had taken up residence in the new open space.

The first roofing company i called said they simply could not get in to fix my issue. The second said that it would be extremely tricky, but they could do it (an angled roof edge going from first floor to second floor - 3 feet from my neighbours - who have a vertical pitch to their roof - so no access), but I had a squirrel issue - and they would charge me $800 just to get two people to come in and do the work. they gave me Chris's info.

Chris showed up EXACTLY when he said he would and was completely confident that he could solve the issue. He and his colleague were up the ladder - totally vertical pitch, fixed the fascia, installed half of the soffit plus a one way squirrel door - and fixed a leak they saw in the roof. All in 30 minutes! Fantastic!

They will be back in a week or so to remove the squirrel door and install the other piece of soffit, and I will be leak free, squirrel free, and my roof will be back in good repair.

i would not hesitate to recommend A1 or call them again. huge thanks!

Great Job! Great Experience!

We had hired another company to deal with a rodent infestation at two commercial properties. Thousands of dollars later and we still had the problem. Chris was referred to us with a promise that he would do an excellent job. He did not disappoint. He is knowledgeable, professional, reliable and reasonable. He always answers your calls and any questions. He outlines what he will do and he does it. Very happy with the results. I now have happy tenants. I would definitely recommend him.

Removal of squirrels from house

We have had Chris come to our house 3 times in the past five years to remove squirrels from different areas of our house. He always comes with a friendly and professional attitude. His work is quick and thorough and has a pro-life attitude for the squirrels being removed. Very pleased with his work and although I would prefer not to call him (e.g. not have more squirrel problems) - he is always a pleasure to deal with. In addition, he identifies other potential issues that he sees (leaks and such) and tries to fix if possible. I would highly recommend him to anyone with squirrel problems in their house.

Great Customer Service!

I have dealt with Chris Wright in two houses over 15 years. Recently I thought I heard raccoons in my roof and the shingles near A1's last eviction (in 2005) were disturbed, so I gave them a call. It turns out everything was still intact but there was a small hole where squirrels could be getting in. I wasn't worried about the squirrels, so decided to do nothing.
A1 didn't charge me for the visit!

A1 Animal Removal Delivers Again

Having several rental properties, I have been dealing with A1 and Chris for almost 10 years now, . The quality of their service is second to none, prices fair and you get a peace of mind money can't buy. Chris is a man of exceptional integrity, always keeps his word and communicates well, so you are never kept in the dark - quite the opposite, I always know what needs to be done, when, and what it would cost me. He even found a few shortcomings other contractors left behind and fixed them for me. I Highly recommend A1 Animal Removal. Always a pleasure doing business with them!

Professional and affordable

A raccoon was trying to get into our house through an opening in our roof. I called Chris and he was able to come out the same evening to look at the situation. He was really nice, very professional and pleasant. I was so worried because it was my first time dealing with something like this and he reviewed the situation and assured me that it's not a problem; he can handle it. Chris was able to cover the opening of the roof that same day so the animal could not get into the house. I would definitely recommend Chris and Ricky to anyone. They are both really nice and professional.

Above and Beyond

I was convinced we had critters living in my roof. Chris responded very quickly to my call and after a thorough assessment informed me that my roof is critter free. He provided me with a wealth of knowledge and even offered helpful roofing advice. I truly appreciate Chris' honesty and will undoubtedly call A1 Animal Remove should we ever require their services. Highly recommended!
