Raccoon Makes Hole in Roof
Ryan was recently called to a home for an inspection about noise in an attic and found a hole in the roof. Evidence showed that a raccoon had indeed peeled back shingles and enlarged an area of underlying roof damage. So not only was there an animal issue; there is also a hole in the roof.
A solution for this homeowner entails 1) Getting the raccoons out of the attic and 2) Getting the roof repaired.
An experienced, full-service nuisance wildlife removal company like Frontline Animal Removal is able to provide the best solution because we are able to provide both needed services. We function as professional wildlife removers and professional wildlife repair specialists.
In today’s post, we’ll provide pictures and video from this job to show you what comprehensive nuisance wildlife removal & repair looks like. Please read on to see what we provide.
Remove Raccoon | Repair Roof Damage
Our profile job this week consisted of one where a raccoon had found some rotting roof decking, damaged the shingles, and made a hole to get into an attic.
This stinks for the homeowner because not only is there a raccoon in the attic, there is also a significant hole in the roof. Two problems necessitate two solutions. And, that is why Frontline Animal Removal offers nuisance wildlife removal services and professional repair services.
Here is the hole that the raccoon made. The insulation that has bee pulled out the attic litters the roof and shows that the raccoon has been going in and out and is up to no good.
The first is getting the raccoon(s) captured. Please follow some of the links below if you’d like to see the trapping process. We have many posts and videos dedicated to trapping raccoons.
Once it is assured the raccoon problem is gone, then the timing is right for a repair.
Here are some pictures which show the sequence of repair work. After that, please watch the video where Ryan explains and shows the process.
And here is the video which puts it all together:

If a raccoon has found its way into your attic, you’ve probably landed on this page because you want it gone.
We understand that and want to assure you that trapping a raccoon that is actively using your attic is usually not a big deal. All it takes is some good equipment and proper trap placement.
In fact there are many pest control / nuisance animal removal companies / buddies with traps that can capture the raccoon.
We just want to make sure that you are thinking about the repair at the same time. We reiterate: Repair and Removal need to be contemplated at the same time. The timeliness and quality of the repair will make or break whether this is a raccoon removal done right.
So if you are contemplating hiring someone to come out and solve your raccoon problem, we suggest you look for a full service raccoon removal company.
Some companies only remove animals and don’t do repair work. Some companies claim to do “repair work” , but are honestly out of their element. And then there are some companies that strive to do professional animal removal AND professional repair work.
We are obviously biased, but we believe it makes sense to hire the full service provider.
We strive to be the go-to full service nuisance animal removal company in the Stark, Summit, Portage County, OH area.
We can remove your nuisance animals for sure, but we can also do the guaranteed repair work in an extremely professional manner.
