Deodorization

Beyond being unpleasant, foul odors in a home or building indicate unsanitary conditions — something we know you don’t want to live in or deal with.

At Choice Property Restoration, we use state-of-the-art tools to detect where odor-causing agents lie, as well as the source of moisture or other problems that lead to foul odors. We also have the right tools and cleaning agents to properly and thoroughly remove those odor-causing agents. Our technicians — trained and certified by the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification – also have the knowledge and skills to effectively deal with any and all odor issues.

The four principles to removing and controlling odors, as defined by the non-profit IICRC:

– Removing the source of the odor as much as is possible (removal of solid materials/absorption of liquid materials)
– Properly and thoroughly cleaning surfaces and materials affected by the odor-causing source
– Using counteractants to combat odor-causing compounds that penetrated surfaces and materials
– Sealing cleaned and deodorized surfaces where necessary and possible

Proper odor removal is a detailed process. And when Choice Property Restoration’s trained technicians complete that process, you’ll see (or, more, smell) significantly positive results.

Common Causes Of Odors In Homes And Businesses

Animal odors
Your new puppy keeps having accidents. Your beloved cat finds a place she likes to go outside her litter box, and no matter how diligently you’ve cleaned that spot, she keeps going back. Pet odors are frustrating and difficult to get rid of — particularly when your pets are repeat offenders.

Your furry family members aren’t the only odor contributors from the animal kingdom either — we’ve gotten more than a few calls from frantic homeowners whose dogs, after being sprayed by skunks, have run through the house rubbing on everything.

Animal odors are tough to combat, but it’s an important battle to take on, whether you’re living in the space or planning to sell. Pet odors can make living in a home and having visitors, feel unpleasant and embarrassing. And if your home or building is on the market, animal odors will quickly urge prospective buyers to search elsewhere.

Moisture problems
Moisture commonly leads to mold and mildew, and mold and mildew cause musty, murky odors that are impossible to ignore. Assessing and repairing the cause of a moisture issue is the starting point for removing those odors, followed by mold remediation processes and deodorization. Even if you don’t have mold, moisture can leave a serious odor that sticks. Professional cleaning and deodorization from Choice Property Restoration can make those odors a thing of the past.

Cigarette smoke
Tobacco smoke is one of the most tenacious, difficult-to-combat odors. We use proven techniques to effectively counteract that smoky smell.

Disaster contaminates
Floods, fires, trauma events and other disasters bring along damage, stains and odors that need to be dealt with. Deodorization is a part of our disaster response process — when you need all signs of a disaster removed, Choice Property Restoration can do the job right, start to finish.
