When the season means waiting

Found out there are protected swifts or a bat colony with young in the chimney and you want them gone now? It's frustrating, and that's fair. The law protects them during nesting and maternity seasons, and the work has to wait.

In the meantime, our pros can make sure the damper is closed and sealed so nothing reaches the room, and they'll book the cleanout and cap for the first date the rules allow. You'll have the plan and the dates spelled out. Ask a local pro about waiting out the season in Hague by calling (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Trees that give animals a bridge

If tree limbs reach the roof of your home in Hague, they give climbing animals an easy path to the chimney top. Our specialists point out limbs that make a bridge to the roof and suggest trimming them back, alongside the cap that closes the flue. Trimming is a job for a tree service. The quote says so, and names the limbs.

Droppings, cleaned up with care

Bird and bat droppings can carry the spores of the fungus that causes histoplasmosis, and the CDC describes infection through breathing in those spores. Dry sweeping or vacuuming droppings with an ordinary vacuum can stir them into the air.

Our specialists clean up droppings with protective gear, dampen them to keep dust down where appropriate, bag the waste and wipe down the damper, smoke shelf and firebox.

They'll ask you to stay out of the room while it's done. Once the area is clean, the flue can be swept and the chimney capped. The area is left clean and dry.

The clean-out door at the base

Many masonry chimneys have a small metal door near the ground or in a crawl space, opening into the ash pit or the base of the flue. When it rusts open, loses its latch or goes missing, animals can climb in from below.

On every animal call the clean-out gets opened, any nesting material or debris behind it is emptied, and a door that won't close is replaced with one sized to the opening.

It's a small repair that's easy to overlook, and it closes a route that a cap on top can't. The new door latches shut and seals against the opening.

Top-sealing dampers against animals

A top damper uses a lid and control cable to close the flue between uses on a compatible fireplace. It needs to open fully and remain open while fire or embers are present. Our pros check the appliance, fuel and venting requirements before recommending a closable system.

Paired with a screened cap, it's one of the strongest barriers a chimney can have. It also replaces a throat damper that has rusted or warped.

It's sized to the flue, and you'll be shown how to open it before every fire. It's priced alongside a standard cap so you can compare the two options. It must be fully open whenever there's a fire.

FAQs

What callers ask about nests and noises

Can you get an animal out of my chimney in Hague?

Yes, and doing it lawfully comes first. Hague is part of our Alachua County coverage, and a free first look tells our pros what's up there and what the rules allow. Leave the damper closed in the meantime.

Will a cap keep animals out?

A screened cap on every flue, with mesh inside the building code's size window, is the main defense. Our pros also close other openings, like a rusted chase cover or a clean-out door that won't shut.
