Our Process
Chimney animal work on Astor Farms homes
Identify the animal before anyone acts
The sounds from a chimney give useful clues. Fluttering and chirping suggest birds, soft scratching at dusk can mean bats, and heavier movement points to a larger animal. The time of day, the season and whether anything has fallen into the firebox all help narrow it down.
Write down what you hear and when, then call (645) 465-4122 from Astor Farms. Our specialists use those notes at the free inspection to identify what is inside before any plan is made, because a protected bird, a bat and a squirrel each lead to different rules and a different order of work.
The months that suit capping best
Two calendars shape when a chimney can be closed. Swifts leave in August or September and return in March or April, and Florida prohibits bat exclusion from April 16 through August 14. The late fall and winter months fall outside both. Planning around them avoids a cap going on at the wrong moment.
If you want your Astor Farms chimney capped before the animals return, booking the free inspection in late summer gives time to identify what used the chimney, clear it and fit the cap within that window. Book within 72 hours of the inspection and 10% comes off the removal and the cap.
After a storm loosens the cap
Each year from June 1 to November 30, the Atlantic hurricane season brings wind that can loosen or tip a chimney cap. A cap that sits crooked or has blown off leaves the flue open to birds and animals within days, and one held by corroded fasteners is the likeliest to move.
After a storm, look at the chimney top from the yard. If the cap has moved, call (645) 465-4122. Our 24/7 emergency line takes calls about storm-damaged chimneys, and our team refits or replaces the cap on your Astor Farms home before anything moves in.
