Common Causes
of Persistent Smoke Odor
Smoke odors can come from all kinds of sources, and each case is different. The type of smoke and the materials affected are important factors that we evaluate on each job to customize a solution for your property.
- Building Fires: Fires produce complex odors from burning building materials, insulation, wood, and plastics.
- Kitchen or Protein Fires: Cooking accidents, especially grease fires or burning proteins, can leave a greasy residue with a strong odor that is hard to clean.
- Furnace Puffbacks: Oil-burning furnaces can malfunction and spread a sooty, oily residue throughout a building with a very strong, distinctive odor.
- Tobacco Smoke: Secondhand smoke from years of indoor smoking can become embedded in walls, ceilings, furniture, and belongings, with yellowing stains and odors.
- Wildfires: Smoke from outdoor wildfires can blow into a property through open windows or an HVAC system, making the whole building smell like a campfire.

Frequently Asked Questions About Smoke Odor Removal
How long does it take to remove smoke odors?
The answer depends on how strong the smell is and how big the property is. Minor cases usually take one to two days, while more severe jobs, especially in larger properties, may take three to five days.
Are the deodorizing chemicals safe?
Yes. When applied by professionals, all of our methods are safe. Some treatments, like ozone, temporarily require the space to be empty, but we make sure it is safe before you return.
Will the smoke odor return later?
No. Our process eliminates the smell permanently instead of just covering it up with chemicals.
What if the smoke from a neighbor’s fire got into my house?
We can help with that too. Smoke from another property can enter a home through vents and open windows, but our process removes it as if the fire happened in your house.
Will insurance cover smoke odor removal?
Yes, most standard homeowners, business, and facility insurance policies will cover smoke odor removal, even if the fire started elsewhere. We are happy to review your policy and help you with the claim.
Why is professional smoke odor removal important?
Commercially available cleaning products and air fresheners may mask smoke odors for a while, but they rarely provide a lasting solution. Professional treatment is needed to effectively target the odor at its source. Our technicians have advanced tools and specialized products to locate and neutralize smoke particles trapped in construction materials and furnishings. This prevents the smoke smell from returning. Smoke residue also contains toxic chemicals that can affect the health of your family, employees, or customers, which is why our process removes contaminants to restore clean air quality to your property. Painting over smoke damage or simply covering the smell with fragrances will not prevent it from coming back. We make sure all surfaces are professionally cleaned and sealed when necessary. We use advanced odor-removing technology like thermal foggers, ozone generators, and hydroxyl machines to safely and completely eliminate odors for long-lasting results.
