Death and Decomposition Odor Removal

Find the cause of decomposition odor before masking it

Our emphasis is on identifying materials associated with the odor and addressing the contamination source where remediation is appropriate. Fragrance alone is not a substitute for assessing a potentially affected property.

• Death odor source assessment
• Decomposition odor remediation
• Affected porous material evaluation
• Residential and rental properties
• Follow-up focused on source removal

Why decomposition odors can return

Air fresheners may make a room seem better temporarily while affected padding, flooring or furniture remains. Odor can migrate through an area, making the source difficult to identify without evaluating where contamination may have entered porous materials.

Odor treatment follows source remediation

We discuss the area and materials involved, whether blood or decomposition fluids were present, and which surfaces may need further investigation. Where appropriate, source cleanup and removal of non-remediable material should occur before considering additional odor control.

When an odor points to a larger cleanup problem

If the smell follows an unattended death, injury or other bodily-fluid incident, request a biohazard assessment rather than assuming a ventilation or fragrance treatment will solve it. We do not guarantee every odor can be eliminated without evaluating the site.
