Ah, the joys of homeownership. The leaky faucets, the creaky floors, and—if you’re particularly lucky—the unwelcome guest in your attic. And not just any guest. I’m talking about a raccoon. A masked bandit of the night, a fluff-tailed acrobat with a penchant for mischief. And, unfortunately for one homeowner, a critter with a rather dramatic exit.
The story begins like many do: with a strange smell. At first, it was a whiff—just enough to make you wonder if someone had left a forgotten snack behind the couch. But soon, it grew into a stench. A nose-wrinkling, air-freshener-defying cloud of ‘something is terribly wrong.’ It was as if the Ghost of Smells Past had taken up residence in the ceiling.
The culprit? Our dearly departed raccoon. How he got up there, no one knows. Perhaps he was on a solo mission, scouting out prime real estate, or maybe he just wanted a quiet place to practice his jazz hands. Raccoons, after all, are unpredictable.
Unfortunately, our furry friend had met his demise, and with it came the lingering odor of raccoon regret. This wasn’t just a ‘crack a window’ situation. No, this was a job for professionals. That’s where Klussman Home Remodeling came to the rescue!
Our team quickly assessed the situation, determining that only a few portions of the drywall needed to be replaced. Within a few hours, the stench was gone, the ceiling was fixed, and the homeowner could finally take off their clothespin nose clip. We handled the job with speed, precision, and perhaps just a bit of humor (because if you can’t laugh at a raccoon drama, what can you laugh at?).
