Soot & Odor

Soot, Smoke Odor & Specialized Removal in Kensington, MD

The visible soot on Kensington, MD walls and ceilings is just a fraction of the contamination after a fire. If it isn't removed from all penetrated surfaces simultaneously, the smell returns within weeks and the invisible health risk persists indefinitely.

Smoke odor compounds are volatile organic molecules that bond to porous materials throughout the structure. Fire Damage Doption uses a multi-technology approach to smoke odor that attacks the compounds on every surface and in every void. Air fresheners, candles, and single-pass fogger treatments do not eliminate smoke odor. They mask it temporarily while the underlying contamination continues.

  • Ozone therapy that reaches smoke compounds in walls, floors, and hidden cavities of Kensington, MD homes
  • Hydroxyl machine treatment - safe for occupied areas during ongoing remediation
  • Thermal fog reaching every odor particle in hard-to-access areas of your Kensington, MD property
  • Non-abrasive dry ice blasting for ornate woodwork and sensitive surfaces in Kensington, MD homes
  • Post-fire mold prevention treatment for Kensington, MD properties with firefighting water exposure
  • Items restoration: electronics, photos, important documents, and irreplaceable belongings in Kensington, MD
