Professional Odour Removal in St. John's: Smoke, Mold, Sewage and Pet Odours Eliminated
St. John's Restoration Co. provides certified odour removal & deodorization in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. Certified odour elimination for St. John's homes: thermal fogging, ozone treatment, and hydroxyl generation for smoke, mold, sewage, and persistent odour sources. We provide complete insurance documentation and bill all major NL insurers directly — including Intact, Aviva, and TD Insurance.
Persistent odours in a home are more than unpleasant. They're almost always the symptom of an underlying contamination that surface cleaning and air fresheners cannot touch. Smoke odour penetrates porous materials to the depth that smoke reached. Mold odour is the volatile organic compound signature of active mold growth. Sewage odour following a backup event indicates residual bacterial contamination. All of these require professional treatment, not masking.
St. John's Restoration Co. provides certified odour elimination using three professional methods: thermal fogging (which matches the penetration depth of smoke odour, neutralizing it inside the material rather than at the surface), ozone treatment (which oxidizes odour-causing compounds at the molecular level), and hydroxyl generation (which continuously destroys odour compounds and is safe for occupied spaces).
The right method depends on the odour source. We assess the source, select the appropriate technology, and provide a treated environment, not a masked one. Odour removal is both a standalone service and a standard component of our fire, mold, and sewage remediation scopes.
What's Included
- Odour source identification and assessment
- Thermal fogging for smoke and fire-related odour, penetrating porous materials
- Ozone shock treatment for severe odour events (unoccupied spaces)
- Hydroxyl generation for odour treatment in occupied or continuously ventilated spaces
- Antimicrobial treatment where odour source is biological (mold, sewage, pet)
- Duct system deodorization where odour has distributed through HVAC
- Post-treatment verification to confirm odour elimination, not masking
- Documentation for insurance claims where odour results from a covered event
When You Need Odour Removal & Deodorization
- Smoke odour persisting after a fire (even a small fire creates deep odour penetration)
- Musty mold odour that returns after cleaning, indicating active mold growth
- Sewage or drain odour following a backup event or after cleanup
- Pet odour requiring professional treatment beyond surface cleaning
- Decomposition odour following an unattended death or hoarding situation
Our Process
Source identification
Odour source confirmed and assessed. The treatment method depends on the source.
Source remediation
Where possible, the source (mold, soot, contaminated material) is removed before deodorization begins.
Treatment selection
Thermal fogging, ozone, or hydroxyl selected based on odour type, severity, and occupancy.
Deodorization
Professional treatment applied throughout the affected space; ductwork treated if odour has distributed.
Verification
Post-treatment assessment confirms odour elimination before job is closed.
