Everyone experiences foul odor in areas where they expect it, but when present in your home or business, it can leave an immediate bad impression for guests and potential customers.
The number one factor in odor removal is eliminating the source or cause of the odor. Products like Febreze are malodorous agents that only mask the odor so when dealing with an aggressive and persistent smell, give the professionals at Oasis Restoration a call to assess your home or business.
Step 1
ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION
During this phase, our experts will determine the extent of the odor by inspecting the affected areas and identifying the surfaces and materials most impacted. This is important because different items and materials may require different cleaning techniques.
Step 2
AIR PURIFICATION
Our crews then set up professional-grade air purifiers to filter those stubborn particles out of the air. They actively and effectively absorb those odorous particulates out of the air, and we monitor the progress throughout the restoration.
Step 3
SURFACE CLEANING & DECONTAMINATION
Aggressive odors permeate every crevice of the home, leaving behind a stubborn, sometimes sticky residue behind. To combat this, our dedicated crew assesses contamination levels, often necessitating the removal of carpets and padding. Employing specialized chemicals and sponges, we meticulously clean surfaces, ensuring the removal of the persistent smoke or other odor causing residue. Utilizing eco-friendly cleaners and specialized equipment, we sanitize walls, floors, and ceilings, leaving your space fresh and free from the lingering effects of smoke.
Step 4
ODOR NEUTRALIZATION & ENCAPSULATION
Ozone treatments are the best way to neutralize cigarette smoke and other aggressive odors. This high-tech deodorizing method uses ozone gas to break down and remove odor-causing molecules and bacteria. Oasis Restoration will repeat this process up to six times to permanently eliminate cigarette smoke from your home. For materials where odor and contaminants have penetrated into load bearing surfaces, Oasis Restoration will also utilize several different methods such as odor locking paint, thermal fogging, and Ultra Low Volume (ULV) disinfectants for safe measures.
Step 5
VENTILATION ENHANCEMENT
Ventilation is critical to remove odors and prevent contaminants from sticking around. Our crews will recommend and install added ventilation improvements such as exhaust fans and HVAC modifications to increase airflow and present smoke particle accumulation.
