Common Damage
What Wildlife Damages
Roof and Soffit Damage
Animals often tear open roof edges, soffits, fascia, and vents to gain access to attics and wall spaces.
Attic and Insulation Damage
Nesting, trampling, droppings, and urine can flatten insulation and leave contaminated materials behind.
Chimney and Vent Damage
Wildlife can damage caps, screens, vent covers, and flue areas while entering or nesting.
Siding and Exterior Openings
Entry holes, chewed edges, lifted panels, and broken trim can leave the structure vulnerable.
Interior Damage
Staining, odors, torn ductwork, damaged wiring pathways, and disturbed materials may remain after activity.
Deck, Shed, and Outbuilding Damage
Burrowing, nesting, and repeated access under or around structures can create ongoing repair needs.
Inspection First. Repair With a Plan.
Wildlife damage repair should start with a careful inspection, not a quick patch. Borland looks at how the animal got in, what materials were damaged, and what repairs are needed to restore the area and reduce the chance of repeat entry.
That can include identifying active entry points, checking adjacent construction details, documenting contamination concerns, and separating cosmetic damage from structural or exclusion-related work. The goal is a repair plan that makes sense for the property, the species involved, and the condition of the affected area.
How Borland Handles Repairs
Our repair approach is built around solving the wildlife issue and the damage it leaves behind.
01
Inspect
We identify the animal pressure, the damaged areas, likely entry points, and any cleanup or safety concerns.
02
Plan
We outline what should be repaired, what should be excluded, and what may need restoration after removal or cleanup.
Borland focuses on practical repair planning that supports long-term wildlife prevention, not just surface fixes.
03
Repair
Damaged components can be repaired or replaced based on the condition of the area and the scope of the wildlife problem.
04
Prevent
We pair repair work with exclusion-minded recommendations so the same opening does not invite the next animal.

Wildlife Damage Repair FAQ
Common questions about inspection, repair planning, and prevention.
What kinds of wildlife damage do you repair?
Repair needs vary by property and species, but common issues include damaged soffits, fascia, vents, siding, roof edges, attic materials, chimney components, and other areas affected by wildlife entry or activity.
Do repairs happen before or after removal?
That depends on the situation. In many cases, the wildlife issue should be addressed first or coordinated with the repair so animals are not sealed into the structure or allowed to return through the same opening.
Can you help if I am not sure what animal caused the damage?
Yes. Borland can inspect the signs, location, and type of damage to help determine what may be causing the problem and what next steps make sense.
Is cleanup sometimes needed with repair work?
Yes. If droppings, urine, nesting debris, or damaged insulation are present, cleanup or restoration may be an important part of the overall solution.
Will repairs help prevent future wildlife problems?
Repairs are most effective when paired with exclusion-minded planning. Borland focuses on repairing damage in ways that also help reduce future access opportunities.
