Managing a rental property in Toronto can be challenging, especially when dealing with tenants and unexpected issues like wildlife intrusions. One property in particular has been significantly affected by raccoons, causing extensive damage that requires immediate attention.

The damage includes water stains on the ceiling, mold growth, flickering lights, and non-functional electrical outlets, all due to raccoons attempting to enter the roof. These critters not only damage property but also pose health risks due to bacteria present in their droppings.

It includes removing the existing carpet and replacing it with luxury vinyl flooring, reinstalling the subflooring, repairing the damaged electrical outlets, and removing and replacing the water-stained portions of the ceiling.

Dealing with raccoons and their waste involves several steps. Professional wildlife removal services are often necessary to ensure that the animals are safely and humanely relocated.
