What's Included

Advanced Odor Elimination Technology

Odors are caused by airborne molecules — VOCs, mercaptans, pyrolysis byproducts, biological waste compounds. Air fresheners and ozone alone only mask or partially oxidize them. We use hydroxyl generators (the same OH radical that cleans the atmosphere), ozone shock treatment for unoccupied spaces, and thermal fogging to penetrate porous materials. The molecules are destroyed, not perfumed over — and the result is permanent.

Smoke Odor Removal

Cigarette, cigar, marijuana, fire, and wildfire smoke — sealing of structural surfaces, HVAC and ductwork cleaning, ozone or hydroxyl treatment, and contents deodorization.

Pet Odor Elimination

Urine, feces, and dander odor — enzyme treatment to break down uric acid crystals, sub-floor and pad treatment, and full air space deodorization.

Mold & Mildew Odor

Source remediation paired with hydroxyl treatment — eliminating the musty 'wet basement' smell that lingers even after surface cleaning.

Decomposition & Biohazard Odor

Following biohazard remediation, hydroxyl and thermal fog treatment penetrate every porous material — wood, drywall, insulation, HVAC — for complete elimination.

Sewage & Mildew Odor

After Category 3 water remediation, residual sewage odor is addressed with antimicrobial fogging and hydroxyl treatment to neutralize hydrogen sulfide and amine compounds.

HVAC Decontamination

Odor frequently lives in your air handler, ducts, and evaporator coil. Network contractors clean and treat the entire HVAC system — without it, the odor returns the next time the system runs.

Professional Odor Removal — Common Questions

Straight answers to the questions we get most often. Don't see yours? Call us — we are happy to talk through your situation.

What is the difference between hydroxyl and ozone treatment?
Both are oxidizing technologies but with different applications. Ozone is more aggressive — kills odor at the molecular level fast — but is unsafe in occupied spaces and can damage rubber, leather, and some fabrics with prolonged exposure. Hydroxyl generators produce the same OH radical that cleans Earth's atmosphere; they are safe to run in occupied spaces continuously and work more slowly but more gently. We choose based on occupancy, materials present, and odor type.
Will the odor really be gone permanently?
Yes — when the source is also addressed. If the odor source remains (active mold, urine in subfloor, smoke residue in HVAC), even the best deodorization is temporary. Our process always identifies and treats the source. We back our work with a written satisfaction guarantee — if the odor returns within the warranty period, we re-treat at no charge.
Can you remove smoke odor from a house I just bought?
Yes. Smoke odor in a recently purchased home — from a previous smoker, fire history, or marijuana use — is one of our most common jobs. Treatment typically involves HVAC cleaning, sealing of structural surfaces (walls and ceilings), contents deodorization, and ozone or hydroxyl treatment. Most homes are odor-free in 3 to 5 days.
Is ozone treatment safe for pets and plants?
No — ozone treatment requires the space to be unoccupied. Pets, plants, and people must be out for the duration of treatment plus a 4 to 8 hour airing-out period. Hydroxyl treatment is safe in occupied spaces and is what we use when the home cannot be vacated.
How long does odor removal take?
Light residential odor jobs take 1 to 3 days. Heavy smoke or biohazard odor with HVAC contamination can take 5 to 10 days including verification. Time depends on odor compound, materials affected, and occupancy. Our network partners provide a written timeline at the start.
How much does professional odor removal cost?
Pricing varies with scope — single-room treatment may run $300 to $800, while whole-house deodorization with HVAC and contents work can range from $2,000 to $6,000. Smoke and biohazard odor remediation is often covered by insurance as part of the broader claim. Our network partners provide a flat-rate quote with no surprises.
