Soot & Odor

Soot, Smoke Odor & Specialized Removal in Harwood, MD

The visible soot on Harwood, MD walls and ceilings is just a fraction of the contamination after a fire. If it isn't removed from all penetrated surfaces simultaneously, the smell returns within weeks and the invisible health risk persists indefinitely.

Industrial ozone generation, hydroxyl machine treatment, and thermal fog application - used in combination - are the only way to fully neutralize smoke odor in a Harwood, MD property. If another contractor tried to handle your Harwood, MD smoke odor without industrial equipment and you're still smelling it - call us.

  • Industrial ozone generator treatment for deep-penetrating smoke odor in Harwood, MD properties
  • Hydroxyl machine treatment - safe for occupied areas during ongoing remediation
  • Thermal fog reaching every odor particle in hard-to-access areas of your Harwood, MD property
  • Non-abrasive dry ice blasting for ornate woodwork and sensitive surfaces in Harwood, MD homes
