Smoke odor that returns after cleaning
Why it happens here
In older Donaldsonville homes, smoke penetrates plaster and balloon framing, and humidity pulls odor back out. Surface cleaning alone does not reach the source, so the smell comes back when the weather changes.
Our approach
We locate the source with thermal imaging and odor detection, remove charred materials, and use ozone and hydroxyl generators to break down odor molecules. We also seal porous surfaces with encapsulant to lock in any remaining odor.
