Need Odor Removal?

Smoke odor can be a persistent problem in a home, especially after a fire. Removing smoke odor requires a multi-step process, but with persistence and the right techniques, it can be done. Here's how:

  1. Ventilation: Open windows and doors to allow fresh air to circulate and remove the smoke odor. Use fans to increase air flow and speed up the process.
  2. Clean Surfaces: Clean all surfaces, including walls, ceilings, floors, and furniture, to remove any residue from the smoke. Use a solution of water and a deodorizing cleaner, such as white vinegar or baking soda, to wipe down the surfaces.
  3. Laundry: Wash all linens, curtains, and clothing that have come into contact with the smoke to remove the odor. Use a deodorizing detergent and consider adding a fabric softener with a fresh scent.
  4. Carpet Cleaning: If your home has carpet, consider hiring a professional to deep-clean it. This will help to remove the smoke odor and any residue from the smoke.
  5. Air Filters: Change the air filters in your HVAC system to remove any smoke particles that may be circulating in the air.
  6. Deodorize with Baking Soda: Sprinkle baking soda on carpets and furniture, let it sit for several hours, and then vacuum it up. This will help to absorb any lingering smoke odor.
  7. Consider Professional Help: If the smoke odor is particularly strong, consider hiring a professional odor removal service. They will have specialized equipment and techniques to remove the odor effectively.

SERVPRO’s 4-Step Odor Removal Process


Green number 1

Remove the Odor Source

Debris containing odor-causing residues will continue to give off odors. That’s why we deal with the source of the odor first.

Green number 2

Clean Residues From Surfaces

After the source of the odor is removed, it’s important to thoroughly clean surfaces to deodorize them effectively. If not properly cleaned, tiny particles of the odor-causing residues will continue to smell.

Green number 3

Recreate the Conditions That Caused Odor Penetration

We apply deodorizer in a method similar to how the odor-causing substances originally penetrated a surface. If smoke created the smell, for instance, deodorizing smoke or fog might be most effective. 

Green number 4

Seal Surfaces Exposed To Unpleasant Odors

Severe situations may require sealing if odor removal would be insufficient.

What our
customers are saying

Five stars are not enough for the incredible support we received from SERVPRO after a tornado completely destroyed our storage unit. In the middle of such a stressful situation, Jamie was an absolute lifesaver. She was professional, courteous, and went completely above and beyond—answering our texts and emails immediately, even while she was away on vacation! Jamie successfully navigated communication with our sassy insurance adjuster with total professionalism, and she even greeted us with hugs when we came to collect our salvaged items. I cannot thank her enough for turning an incredibly unpleasant situation into a manageable one.

Heather Freda

ServPro cleaned our air ducts and did a fantastic job! Brent was kind and extremely professional. I'm amazed by the great work he did! The office staff also made it super easy to schedule an appointment. I would definitely recommend them!

Amy Roberts

We had our electric fireplace start on fire on Saturday, and soot was everywhere in our basement. Serv Pro was there on Monday to assess the situation and make a plan for clean up and rebuild. I cannot say enough about them and how helpful they were! Jamie answered all of my texts almost immediately! She is so knowledgeable and thorough! And Annie worked her butt off! Somehow she remembered what room all of our items were in! I don't know how... I hope this never happens again...but my 1st call will be to Serv Pro of Appleton. They made this awful situation easier to handle❣️

Gary Lallensack

The day after the tornado Servpro was at our condo bright and early to start what they do. Besides physical support they were moral support for me. Every time I had a question they did what they could to get me an answer. Always got a call back or a text. What a great company with great employees.

Betty Seaborne

I was blessed to have this company come !! They came from out of state to help with a severe storm that ravaged my area. I had major water damage due to not having power for 4 days . My sump pump overflowed and my lower level was a total loss! They truly helped with MAJOR clean out and were great to answer any questions! I highly recommend this company!
