Smoke odor after a fire in Ellicott City, MD is not a surface problem. It's a structural one. Odor compounds are embedded in the same pathways smoke traveled - porous materials, wall cavities, duct linings. Our thermal fogging treatment carries neutralizing agents into these pathways directly, followed by hydroxyl generation that continues working for 24 hours. The result is genuine elimination, not masking.
