Odors can be a nuisance, but, it can also be the root of a bigger problem.
Is there an area in your home that has a musty odor or other strange smell? Odor comes from the process in which organic compounds are breaking down. This is why you can sense an odor.
Odor Removal
To remove odor you must first remove the source. From smoke odors, spilt liquids, foods, and other sources the materials should be removed. Once the source has been removed, the odor control processes can continue by neutralizing the air and other materials with various methods and EPA registered cleaning products.
The Problem With Odors
When it comes to odors, there can be a bigger problem than just the smell. With some odors the result of organic compounds breaking down can cause a mold issue. If this is untreated it can spread and create an unhealthy environment in your home or office.
Other odors like the ones that come from smoke can be harmful due to carcinogens. The particles from these gases build up on building materials and other items unless they are cleaned properly.

As restoration professionals we are trained in the proper techniques and procedures to handle these types of problems. Safety is important to us and there can be serious health concerns if mold is handled improperly. Someone that is untrained can improperly handle the mold removal processes or not complete the process itself. This can lead to contaminating other areas of the property, further damages to the structure, and the risk to the health of themselves and others.
