Odour Removal

Homework is equipped to remove unpleasant odours, including that of cigarette smoke, from your home. By combination of ozone treatment, activated charcoal, steam cleaning, Ozium®, baking soda, air purification, fogging, and other techniques, Homework is able to reduce or eliminate odours that have contaminated your living space.

Consider these services before you move into a home with a noticeable odour, or before you either attempt to sell your home or move out of a rental property. Do not move your belongings into a house that reeks of cigarette smoke; procure odour removal services first so as to minimize the expense and mitigate possible contamination of, or damage to, your possessions.

Homework strongly recommends that you do not smoke in your home. Smoking inside exposes all occupants to second hand smoke, will yellow your ceiling, and will cause a decrease in your home’s value. If you choose to smoke in your home, we recommend limiting this activity to a single room in the house and the installation of a ventilation system with an air exchanger and air purifier.

Please note that if you are booking routine cleaning services and your home has been heavily smoked in, scheduling will be more restrictive. Homework chooses to schedule services for homes that have a strong smell of smoke on the same day each week to avoid introducing these contaminants to other clients’ homes. Whether Homework is providing routine cleaning services or odour removal services in a space that has been smoked in, you may notice our employees wearing face masks or respirators for their own protection. To preserve the health and safety of its employees, Homework will not clean a home while homeowners or guests actively smoke within it.
