Smoke Odor Removal in Pomona CA - Professional Smoke & Odor Remediation for Homes & Businesses


5 Highlights on Smoke Odor Removal Services

Targeted Smoke Odor Detection and Neutralization

Our technicians inspect all odor-affected zones - walls, ceilings, HVAC ducts, carpets, and upholstery - then apply professional-grade deodorizing agents and air treatments to neutralize smoke odor at its source. We use VOC detectors and thermal imaging to locate hidden soot pockets that cause persistent smell.

HEPA Air Filtration and Indoor Air Quality Restoration

We deploy HEPA air scrubbers and negative-air machines to filter airborne smoke particles, soot residues, and volatile compounds. This smoke odor removal step restores breathable, purified indoor air for Pomona homes and commercial spaces.

Non-Destructive Cleaning for Surfaces and Contents

Our smoke odor removal process includes thorough cleaning of walls, ceilings, furnishings, fabrics, carpets, and soft contents. We use enzyme-based odor eliminators and smoke-neutralizing detergents to deodorize materials - avoiding unnecessary demolition while restoring your property.

Residential and Commercial Smoke Odor Removal

We provide smoke odor removal for private homes, apartments, offices, retail shops, restaurants, and warehouses throughout Pomona. Our crews scale equipment and workflow to match property size - from single-family residences to multi-unit buildings with shared ventilation systems.

Documentation and Insurance-Ready Reporting

Every smoke odor removal project includes detailed documentation: before/after photos, treated areas, methods used, and clearance status. We generate Xactimate reports that insurance adjusters, landlords, and property managers require for claims processing.


Why Choose Our Smoke Odor Removal Services

Smoke odor persists long after flames are extinguished. It penetrates walls, HVAC systems, carpets, upholstery, and structural cavities. Clean and Dry Restoration provides professional smoke odor removal in Pomona for homeowners and commercial property managers who need complete odor elimination - not temporary masking.

Our certified technicians use ozone generators, hydroxyl radical processing, thermal fogging, and HEPA air scrubbing to neutralize embedded smoke compounds. We assess odor penetration thoroughly, then customize our remediation approach: air purification, surface decontamination, fabric deodorization, duct cleaning, and encapsulation sealing when needed.

For Pomona businesses, we coordinate smoke odor removal around operating hours to minimize downtime. For residential clients, we restore fresh, breathable indoor air so families can return to normal living. We understand Pomona's unique conditions - older homes with porous plaster, Inland Valley heat that reactivates odors, and wildfire smoke infiltration during Santa Ana wind events.

With Clean and Dry Restoration, smoke odor removal is a guaranteed, professional service - not guesswork or surface cleaning that fails.


Signs You Need Smoke Odor Removal Services

Persistent Smoke Smell After Fire or Smoke Exposure

If your Pomona property retains a smoky smell days or weeks after a fire, fireplace use, or wildfire smoke exposure - even after basic cleaning - smoke residues have penetrated walls, ductwork, insulation, or fabrics. Professional smoke odor removal is required.

Odor Returns After Ventilation or Surface Cleaning

When smoke smell returns after opening windows or wiping surfaces, residues are embedded in porous materials or circulating through your HVAC system. These deep odors require professional deodorization and air scrubbing to eliminate.

Stained Walls, Ceilings, or HVAC Vents with Acrid Odor

Yellowed ceilings, discolored walls, or dusty vents accompanied by a sharp, acrid smell indicate smoke residue buildup. This visible contamination signals the need for thorough smoke odor removal and surface decontamination.

Smoky Smell in Furnishings, Carpets, or Upholstery

Carpets, curtains, sofas, and rugs absorb smoke chemicals and volatile compounds. If these items reek of smoke even after cleaning, specialized odor neutralization and fabric treatment are necessary to eliminate the smell.

Headaches, Respiratory Irritation, or Allergy Symptoms Indoors

Lingering smoke odors correlate with poor indoor air quality and elevated particulate levels. If building occupants experience irritation, headaches, or allergy-like symptoms, air filtration and smoke odor removal should be addressed immediately to restore safe breathing conditions.


Our Smoke Odor Removal Process

Site Assessment and Odor Mapping

We inspect your Pomona property, test HVAC systems, walls, ceilings, fabrics, and air ductwork to map all smoke-affected areas. Using VOC detectors and thermal imaging, we identify hidden contamination zones - even those without visible soot residue.

Air Filtration Setup and Safety Containment

We install HEPA air scrubbers, negative-air machines, and ZipWall containment barriers. This prevents odor particles and residual soot from spreading to unaffected zones during smoke odor removal and protects occupants in adjacent spaces.

Surface and Contents Cleaning

We clean hard surfaces, painted walls, ceilings, trim, and fixtures using soot sponges, degreasers, and smoke-neutralizing detergents. We deep-clean fabrics, carpets, upholstery, and curtains - extracting smoke-laden particles and applying enzyme-based odor eliminators.

Odor Neutralization and Air Treatment

We apply professional-grade odor neutralizers matched to your smoke type. Depending on severity, we use thermal fogging, ozone shock treatment, or hydroxyl generators to penetrate walls, ceilings, and ventilation systems - oxidizing embedded smoke compounds for complete elimination.

Final Air Quality Verification and Documentation

After treatment, we test indoor air quality, confirm smoke odor removal, and provide a detailed report. Documentation includes work performed, treated zones, equipment used, and clearance status - ready for insurance claims, landlords, or property management records.


Brands We Use

Phoenix

We use Phoenix air movers and dehumidifiers to circulate fresh air during smoke odor removal. These units promote ventilation and accelerate odor dissipation throughout treated spaces.

Dri-Eaz

Dri-Eaz air scrubbers filter airborne smoke particles and soot during cleanup. This HEPA-grade filtration is essential for restoring clean, breathable air in Pomona homes and commercial buildings.

FLIR

FLIR thermal imaging helps us detect heat-affected or moisture-laden zones where smoke odor has penetrated deeper into walls and structural cavities. This guides targeted smoke odor removal for complete remediation.

Kärcher

We deploy Kärcher wet/dry vacuums and extraction equipment to clean smoke-soaked surfaces, floors, and carpets. Removing soot residues before deodorization ensures treatments reach contaminated materials directly.

Mytee

Mytee carpet and upholstery extractors thoroughly clean fabrics and soft materials that absorbed smoke compounds. This deep extraction is necessary to eliminate embedded odors from sofas, curtains, and carpets.

Hydro-X

Hydro-X suction mats extract residual cleaning fluids and moisture from subfloors and padding. Preventing moisture buildup stops odor reactivation and mold growth after smoke odor removal.

ZipWall

We install ZipWall containment barriers to isolate treatment zones and protect unaffected areas during smoke odor removal. This containment is essential for occupied buildings and multi-unit properties.

Injectidry

Injectidry systems dry wall cavities, baseboards, and subfloors after cleaning. This targeted drying is critical when smoke residues mixed with moisture during fire suppression or cleanup.

Delmhorst

Delmhorst moisture meters confirm dryness of structural materials after smoke odor removal. Verified dryness prevents dampness from reactivating odors or supporting mold growth.

Xactimate

We document all cleaning, extraction, deodorization, and air filtration steps in Xactimate. This industry-standard software generates professional reports for insurance claims, landlords, and property managers.


FAQs About Smoke Odor Removal

Can smoke odor be completely removed from a property?

Yes. With professional air scrubbing, surface cleaning, odor neutralization through ozone or hydroxyl treatment, and HVAC decontamination, we eliminate smoke odor - even when it has penetrated walls, ductwork, insulation, or fabrics. Complete smoke odor removal is achievable with proper equipment and methods.

How long does smoke odor removal take?

Typical residential smoke odor removal takes 1-2 days. Larger commercial properties, extensive HVAC systems, or heavy smoke exposure may require 2-4 days depending on severity, property size, and the number of affected zones requiring treatment.

Do I need to replace carpets or furniture after smoke damage?

Not always. Many smoke-damaged items can be cleaned and deodorized successfully. We assess each item individually using odor testing and material inspection. If salvageable, we clean and treat; if not, we document contents for replacement through your insurance claim.

Can smoke smell return after cleanup?

Only if moisture remains trapped or odor-causing residues were not fully removed. Our smoke odor removal process combines cleaning, extraction, thorough drying, and air filtration to prevent lingering odors or recurrence. We verify results before completing the project.

Do you provide documentation for insurance claims?

Yes. We deliver complete reports via Xactimate listing treated areas, methods used, equipment deployed, before/after conditions, and clearance status. This documentation supports insurance claims, satisfies landlord requirements, and provides property management records.
