Odor Removal

A smell has a source. We find it.

A smell that will not leave is coming from something.

It could be soaked drywall, carpet pad, subfloor, insulation or the ductwork.

Air fresheners and candles cover a smell for a while.

The source keeps making it.

We find what is holding the odor and take it out or clean it.

Then we deodorize and seal.

If something had to be cut out, we rebuild that too.

When to call

Smells we deal with.

Any one of these is worth a call to (256) 624-8206. We answer 24 hours.

  1. Smoke odor

    It stays long after the fire, in drywall, insulation, fabric and ductwork.

  2. Musty or mildew smell

    It shows up after a leak, a flood or a damp crawlspace. Something never dried out.

  3. Pet odor

    Urine soaks through carpet and pad into the subfloor. Cleaning the top layer misses it.

  4. Sewage smell

    After a sewer backup, carpet and pad usually go. The smell can sit in the subfloor too.

  5. A smell from the vents

    If the odor comes on when the HVAC runs, the ductwork may be holding it.

How we handle it

How an odor job goes.

Bathroom floor torn out to the subfloor with the carpet rolled back
Basement mid-rebuild: new wall going up, floor covered, air scrubber running
  1. 01

    Find the source

    Call (256) 624-8206 any hour.

    We come to the house and follow the smell room by room.

  2. 02

    Take out what holds it

    Soaked carpet, pad, drywall or insulation that cannot be cleaned comes out.

    Leaving it behind means the smell stays.

  3. 03

    Clean and dry

    Floors, framing and hard surfaces that stay get cleaned.

    Air movers and dehumidifiers dry anything still damp.

  4. 04

    Deodorize and seal

    Once the source is gone, we deodorize the space.

    Cleaned framing and subfloor get sealed, so what is left behind stays sealed in.

  5. 05

    Rebuild what came out

    New drywall, paint, trim and flooring go back where we cut.

    You get a finished room, not a gutted one.

Close to home

Crawlspaces, basements and mobile homes.

Many homes here sit on crawlspaces or over basements.

Mobile homes are common too.

After a storm or a long rain, those are the spaces where musty smells often start.

We work across Etowah, Calhoun, St. Clair and Talladega counties, day or night.

5 out of 5 stars

We had Josh fix some paneling that had water and mold damage to it and he went above and beyond expectations. He was very communicative the whole time and showed up every single day on time. He dry walled two of our walls and painted them and they turned out stunning!! He worked hard every day and you can tell in the finished product. I will be recommending him to everyone I know! 5/5 ⭐️

Had two major home repairs this week back to back. In a panic, I was able to call both times and got help right away. Josh came out and fixed both my issues quick and efficiently. Definitely takes pride in his work and does an amazing job. I went from my whole basement flooded, to everything back dry and repaired very quickly. Highly recommended using! A huge life saver to me!

Questions

Odor questions.

Anything else? Call (256) 624-8206, day or night.

Why do air fresheners not work?

They cover a smell. They do not remove what makes it.

The source is still in the drywall, carpet, subfloor or ductwork.

Once it is removed or cleaned, the smell has nothing left to come from.

Can the smell go without tearing anything out?

Sometimes. If the source is on a surface, cleaning and deodorizing can be enough.

If it soaked into drywall, pad or subfloor, that material usually has to come out.

We tell you which before we start.

Do you handle smoke smell after a fire?

Yes. Smoke odor is part of our fire and smoke damage work.

We find where it settled, clean or remove it, then deodorize.

Do you give free estimates?

Yes. Call (256) 624-8206 and we will come look at it.
