If you need immediate help securing your home, call

Many homeowners do not realize how easily wildlife can enter a home. Animals squeeze through small gaps, chew through weak materials, and create new openings that allow moisture, drafts, and pests to enter. These issues often go unnoticed until the damage becomes severe. Trying to seal these areas without professional help can lead to temporary fixes that fail under pressure. Once animals discover a weak spot, they often return or create new openings nearby.
AWAE Restoration understands how stressful wildlife damage can be. Our prevention services focus on sealing vulnerable areas, reinforcing weak spots, and restoring the protective barriers that keep your home safe. We provide long-term solutions that stop animals from returning and help protect your home from future damage.
Understanding the Importance of Wildlife Damage Prevention
Wildlife damage prevention is essential for protecting your home from contamination, structural issues, and costly repairs. Once animals enter, they can cause significant damage that spreads beyond the initial entry point.
How Wildlife Finds Entry Points
Gaps in siding or rooflines
Openings around vents or utility lines
Cracks in the foundation
Loose soffits or fascia
Damaged attic vents
Weak or rotted wood
Unsealed roof edges
These small openings may seem harmless, but animals can squeeze through surprisingly tight spaces.
Home Sealing for Long-Term Protection
Home sealing is one of the most effective ways to help prevent wildlife from entering your home. Our team identifies and seals gaps, cracks, and openings using durable materials that withstand weather and animal pressure.
What Home Sealing Includes
Sealing cracks around the foundation
Closing gaps in siding or rooflines
Reinforcing attic openings and vents
Sealing utility entry points
Installing protective barriers
Using caulk, foam, mesh, and weather-resistant materials
These steps create a strong barrier that blocks wildlife from entering your home.
