Available Deodorization Services for Independence
Musty Odor Removal
A musty smell that keeps coming back usually means wet materials are still in place. Those areas are found with meters and dried or removed.
Chemical Odor Removal
The source of a chemical smell is found first. Some spills may need a hazardous materials contractor before deodorizing can begin.
Pet Odor Elimination
Surface sprays only cover pet odor for a while. Removing the soaked pad and treating the subfloor deals with the cause.
Water Damage Deodorization
After water damage, soaked materials can trap odor long after the water is gone. Wet carpet pad and drywall are removed and the area is dried.
Sewage Odor Cleanup
After a sewage backup, contaminated materials are removed and surfaces are disinfected. Deodorizing follows once the source is gone.
