Smoke Odour Removal Services
Complete smoke odour elimination using advanced ozone, hydroxyl, and thermal fogging technology. IICRC FSRT-certified technicians delivering verified, permanent results.
Our Smoke Odour Removal Process
Odour Source Identification
Our technicians conduct a comprehensive inspection to identify all odour sources including smoke-saturated materials, HVAC contamination, structural cavities, and porous surfaces. Thermal imaging and moisture meters help locate hidden odour reservoirs.
Surface Deodorisation
All accessible surfaces are cleaned and treated with professional-grade deodorising agents. Smoke-saturated soft furnishings, carpets, and textiles are treated or removed. Walls, ceilings, and hard surfaces receive chemical treatment to break down odour compounds.
Advanced Odour Technology
Industrial ozone generators, hydroxyl radical machines, and thermal fogging equipment are deployed to neutralise odour molecules at the molecular level. These technologies penetrate walls, cavities, fabrics, and HVAC systems where manual cleaning cannot reach.
Verification Testing
Post-treatment air quality testing confirms odour elimination meets acceptable standards. Follow-up inspections ensure no residual odour returns as temperature and humidity change. A clearance report is provided for your records.
Advanced Odour Removal Technologies
Ozone Generation Treatment
Industrial ozone generators produce activated oxygen that breaks down smoke odour molecules at the molecular level. Ozone penetrates every surface, cavity, and textile fibre for complete neutralisation.
Hydroxyl Radical Technology
Safe-to-occupy hydroxyl generators produce radicals that destroy odour compounds in the air and on surfaces. Unlike ozone, hydroxyl treatment allows continued occupancy during the deodorisation process.
Thermal Fogging
Heated deodorant fog penetrates the same microscopic spaces that smoke particles entered. The fog follows the same pathways as the original smoke, neutralising odours in walls, ceilings, and concealed cavities.
HEPA Air Scrubbing
Hospital-grade HEPA filtration removes airborne smoke particles down to 0.3 microns. Continuous air scrubbing during restoration ensures clean breathing air and prevents cross-contamination between treated areas.
Encapsulation Sealing
Specialist sealant coatings encapsulate residual odour compounds trapped deep within porous materials like timber, concrete, and masonry. This prevents future off-gassing without requiring full material replacement.
Air Quality Testing
Professional air quality monitoring before, during, and after treatment verifies odour elimination. We use calibrated instruments to measure particulate levels and volatile organic compounds to confirm safe re-occupancy.
Why DIY Odour Removal Fails
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does professional smoke odour removal take?
Treatment duration depends on the severity and extent of contamination. A single room may take 1-2 days. A full house typically requires 3-7 days for complete odour elimination including surface treatment, ozone or hydroxyl processing, and verification. Severely affected properties may require multiple treatment cycles over 2-3 weeks.
Can you remove cigarette smoke odour from a property?
Yes. Cigarette smoke odour is one of our most common requests. Years of cigarette smoke saturate walls, ceilings, carpets, curtains, and HVAC systems. We use a combination of surface cleaning, ozone treatment, encapsulation sealing, and HVAC decontamination to fully eliminate embedded cigarette smoke odour.
Does ozone treatment really work for smoke odour?
Yes, ozone is highly effective for smoke odour removal. Ozone (O3) is a powerful oxidiser that breaks down odour-causing molecules rather than masking them. However, ozone treatment must be performed by qualified professionals as high ozone concentrations are harmful to humans, pets, and plants. The property must be vacated during treatment.
Can you remove smoke odour from clothing and fabrics?
Yes. We offer professional textile restoration including ozone treatment, specialist dry cleaning, and wet cleaning for smoke-damaged clothing, curtains, bedding, and soft furnishings. Items are individually assessed and treated using the most appropriate method for each fabric type.
Do you guarantee complete odour removal?
We guarantee our work meets IICRC standards for smoke odour remediation. In the vast majority of cases, we achieve complete odour elimination. In rare instances where odour compounds have deeply penetrated structural materials, we may recommend targeted material replacement combined with encapsulation for a permanent solution.
