Odor Removal After Fire
Lingering smoke odor lives in carpet pad, upholstery, and ductwork long after the flames are out. We use thermal foggers, hydroxyl generators, and charcoal odor absorbers to neutralize the source instead of masking it. Most homes pass the sniff test in three to five days.

Soot Removal
Soot is oily and acidic. Wipe it wrong and you smear it deeper into the wall. We use dry chemical sponges first, then wet cleaning agents matched to the surface, and we seal what cannot be cleaned with a smoke sealant so stains do not bleed back through the paint.

Fires leave behind more than char. Here are the four problems we hear about most from El Toro families, and how we fix them.
Ask a pro →That smell is residue in the wall cavities, carpet pad, and ductwork. We locate the source with thermal imaging, treat it with thermal foggers and hydroxyl generators, and replace what cannot be cleaned. If the odor returns, we come back at no charge.
Painting over soot without sealing it traps the oils in the drywall. We clean with soot sponges, apply a shellac-based smoke sealant, and only then prime and paint. That is why our walls stay white instead of turning brown in a month.
