How we prioritise
Active leaks, gas smell, and animal-in-flue jump the queue over cosmetic animal removal work. We text realistic ETAs, not "we'll get to it."
Response windows across Markham
Standard bookings inside Markham: 3–5 business days. Same-day: usually before 2pm if we get the call by 9am. Emergency (water in flue, active leak): 90 minutes on weekdays, 3 hours weekends.
Weekend and holiday coverage
Saturday standard. Sunday and stat holidays are emergency-only with a documented callout fee that's waived if we book the follow-up job.
Common questions
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.
Is animal removal covered by home insurance in Markham?
Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
When's the best time of year for animal removal in Markham?
Late September through mid-November with Markham averaging 148cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
What warranty do you offer on animal removal in Markham?
Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
How long does animal removal take in Markham?
60–90 min is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
Do you offer same-day animal removal in Markham?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Markham for most standard scopes.
How much does animal removal cost in Markham?
Most Markham jobs land between $191 and $306. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $497. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Do you need a permit for animal removal in Markham?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Markham. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
