We handle raccoon removal work for residential and commercial structures in Markham, Ontario.

Raccoon-related issues typically involve animals accessing attics, roof cavities, chimneys, or other enclosed spaces attached to a structure. Activity is often associated with damaged rooflines, displaced materials, or repeated entry at the same location. Our role is to confirm activity, remove raccoons from the structure, and address the conditions that allow access.

Common Squirrel Problems in Markham Homes

Raccoon activity is commonly identified through:

  • Loud movement or thumping noises in attics or ceilings

  • Damage to roof shingles, soffits, vents, or fascia

  • Entry points enlarged or forced open along rooflines

  • Nesting activity inside attics, often during breeding season

In many cases, activity increases when raccoons seek sheltered spaces to raise young.

How Our Raccoon Removal Process Works

Our squirrel removal process  is designed to remove the animals safely while ensuring they cannot return.

Inspection

We inspect the structure to confirm raccoon activity, identify entry points, and assess interior areas such as attics where access has occurred. Rooflines and exterior elevations are examined closely.

Removal

Raccoons are removed using regulated, species-appropriate methods that allow animals to exit the structure without returning. Timing and approach may vary depending on seasonal factors and site conditions. Raccoon babies are removed manually and humanely re-united with their mothers.

 

Exclusion

Once removal is complete, access points are repaired or reinforced to prevent re-entry. Materials and methods are selected based on the location of the entry and the construction of the building.

MARKHAM Homes We Commonly Service

Raccoon removal work in Markham is performed across a wide range of structure types, including detached homes, semi-detached houses, townhomes, multi-unit residential buildings, and low-rise commercial properties. Technicians regularly encounter varied roof designs, attic configurations, and building materials common to both older neighbourhoods and newer developments. Experience working across these structure types allows access points, load paths, and interior conditions to be assessed accurately, and removal methods to be adapted to the construction and use of each property rather than applied generically.

THERMAL IMAGING

Thermal imaging cameras are used during inspection to locate raccoons and, where present, dependent young within attic spaces or concealed cavities. This allows technicians to confirm the number and location of animals without unnecessary disturbance or invasive searching. When young are present, removal work is coordinated so they can be safely reunited with the mother outside the structure. Using thermal imaging improves accuracy, reduces guesswork, and allows removal to be carried out in a way that minimizes harm to animals and disruption to the structure.

Structural Areas Commonly Affected

Raccoon entry and damage most often involve:

  • Roof edges and roof-to-wall junctions

  • Soffits, fascia boards, and attic vents

  • Chimneys and roof penetrations

  • Attic insulation and framing

Because raccoons are strong and persistent, repairs must address both access and durability.
