Removed mold odor from a Venice Beach studio apartment

Remove mold smell in Venice Beach, CA - Odor Removal Experts
If you're familiar with Venice Beach, CA you know that many neighborhoods have an alley that runs behind the first row of houses. This home was right across the alley from the beach, basically one eighth of a block from the water. As a result, the are there is very, very humid and, with the addition of showers and cooking in a sealed up apartment, a mold problem is created. The shower in the bathroom was the obvious place to start. I had the property owner treat the shower with a spray bottle containing a diluted bleach solution. I had him spray this in the shower with particular attention to the grout because that is porous and retains moisture. Our treatment was to leave the treatment running overnight in order to kill all of the mold that creates the stuffy, moldy smell. The property…

Removed Cigarette Smell from Porsche 911 Turbo in Costa Mesa, CA

Remove cigarette smoke smell Porsche 911 T in Costa Mesa, CA
For this job we were contacted by a high end dealership to removed cigarette smell from Porsche 911 Turbo in Costa Mesa, CA. This person is a dealer who buys cars wholesale. I this case he had it sold twice, and it had come back twice. Apparently the issue was a VERY faint cigarette odor that could NOT be covered up with an air freshener even after this car had been detailed as part of their preparing the car for sale. In our experience, trying the air freshener trick never works. The moral of the story is this: car dealers, or car wholesalers, you can buy and sell previously smoked in, stinky cars, let us work on it because we can fix it so that you can sell it! Questions? Contact us at (714) 605-0846 or use our handy contact form.

Odor Removal on a 65’ power boat, a pleasure yacht in Marina del Ray Harbor

Boat odor, toilet smell removal - Marina del Ray Harbor - Odor Removal Experts
We got a call and went to Newport Shipyard to look at an odor removal job on a power boat, in this case a 65’ pleasure yacht, that the owner had just purchased. The problem was in the forward cabin, actually it was the head in the forward cabin that had a smell, a toilet smell. Based on the evidence that I could see, toilet paper residue, that there had been an overflow or a leak event that caused this odor issue. As with every job, no matter if it’s a boat, house, car or truck, our first job is to remove the source of the smell. Once that was cleaned up we could do our standard 24-hour ozone treatment and that removed all of the odor issues. Like all boat jobs we definitely check the bilge for problems as well. In this case…

Bilge and Rat Smells on a 50 ft Catalina in Shoreline Marina, Long Beach

Bilge & rat smell removal from 50 ft Catalina sailboat - Shoreline Marina, Long Beach CA
This was an interesting job in a couple of ways. The boat’s owner found us via our brochure at the Shoreline Marina bulletin board in Long Beach. After taking a look at his odor problems we knew we could help him once the sources of the odors were properly dealt with. The first order of business was to get the bilge cleaned out. This is a common source of boat odors and while we don’t clean bilges ourselves, we do have some excellent, reliable providers of this service that we can recommend. During the course of inspecting the boat and determining the bilge smell issues, we discovered that there was a minor rat infestation as well. Boats are, unfortunately, usually pretty welcoming to rats. Once we got the bilge smell and the rat smell cleaned up we did our standard overnight treatment. The customer…

Rat Odor in a Tesla, Irvine, California

Rat smell in Tesla, Irvine Spectrum collision center
Rat smell in Tesla, Irvine Spectrum collision center We were brought to this job by an auto body shop in the Spectrum area of Irvine and that was a good thing because the infiltration of the rat required that the console be disassembled, cleaned and reassembled. We figured this out when we found a fur strip on each side of the console frame and pointed it out to their technicians. In a situation like this we remind the client that we can clean the “air only”. That means that the source of the odor must be removed in order for us to treat the smell. We came back two days later and they had removed the fur. We set up our machines, cleaned the air, everyone was happy. You would be surprised how big of a problem this is. Apparently some of the wiring…

Smoke Odor Removed from House & Garage, Mesa Verde, Costa Mesa, California

Cigarette smell odor removal Mesa Verda, Costa Mesa, CA
This job was at a very nice, pretty large house on Pitcairn Street in Costa Mesa in a development known as the Mesa Verde area of Costa Mesa. The home 2400 sq feet home was permeated with cigarette smoke odors. Doing the entire home took 24 hours and was done overnight. They were happy with the results and so they called me back to the garage. The garage also had a cigarette smoking odor. My customers were the new owners, they had just bought the house and they noticed that the smoke smell started to come out after a hot day. This is not uncommon, that smells become more prominent or perhaps noticeable, in warmer weather. Once the how was done they noticed that there was still a smell in garage and asked “Can you come back?”. The issue was that they had moved…

Removed the odor from a man cave in Lake Forest, CA!

Cigarette odor removal - Lake Forest, CA
We got a call to remove smoking smells from a "man cave" in Lake Forest, California. This was a recently purchased two-story, single family home that had become like a "club house" for the men in the neighborhood. It had beer lights, a complete bar,  and along with cigarette and cigar smoke smell, had begun to develop a stale bar smell as well. We brought in 2 machines for what we knew would be a tough odor removal job. We put one in the garage itself which was ground zero, the source of the smells and we put one machine in the rest of the house. Do you have a cigarette smell problem and need it removed? If you're a home or business owner in the Lake Forest area and need YOUR home, or your "man cave", freshened up please give us a call…

Odor Removal on a 42 foot power boat in San Pedro Harbor: success and happy customer!

42' sport fisher odor removal San Pedro harbor, CA
We did an Odor Removal job recently on a 42 foot sport fishing power boat in the Cabrillo Marina in San Pedro, California. He had tried everything to try to get the odor out but called us and we did a great job for him! To be honest, this boat owner had done literally everything right in trying to eliminate his odor problem by himself. First of all he had had the boat cleaned and detailed, his bilge emptied and cleaned. They had tried multiple dehumidifier tools as well but when the boat had been closed up for a while there was still a smell, a residual odor issue As you can see by the photos the boat is pristine. He had even replaced the carpeting fearing that the odor was trapped in there. It’s a family owned boat and one of the family…

Boat Odor Removal Newport Beach, CA

Boat Odor Removal Newport Beach
A local family purchased a relatively new, previous-owned 42’ motor yacht that had an unpleasant smell to it. They were told by their boat broker that it was due to a “head malfunction” wherein human waste got into the bilge of the boat. Their boat broker had hired a professional boat cleaning service to give it their standard cleaning mostly below decks and the sale was completed. After using the boat a couple of weekends the owner’s teenage children no longer wanted to get on the boat because the smell issue had returned. They called us, Odor Removal Experts, and we met them at their slip in Newport Beach. After a careful inspection we gave them a quote, it was accepted and we began work that same  day. We used our professional-grade, very powerful ozone generating equipment to solve their odor problem. Since ozone…
