Why Odor Removal Varies So Much in Price

Odor removal is not deodorizing — it is chemical, biological, and atmospheric remediation.

Pricing varies because:
• Some odors are surface-level, some are molecularly bonded
• Some require enzymes, others require vapor treatment
• Some require multiple cycles
• Some require breaking into wall cavities or flooring (optional)

HazWash™ uses hospital-grade oxidizers that penetrate deeper than ozone, foggers, sprays, or DIY methods.

Why DIY Odor Removal Fails Every Time

Store-bought sprays and ozone machines can’t reach:

❌ subfloor penetration

❌ wall cavities

❌ ductwork

❌ insulation

❌ carpet padding

❌ structural materials

Odor is a molecular problem, not a surface problem.
Until the molecules are broken down, neutralized, or oxidized, the smell always returns.

DIY and Store sprays don’t reach the molecular level. That’s why odors return in few days or weeks. The HazWash™ system breaks the chemical structure of odor compounds permanently.

Odor Removal FAQ – Everything Detroit Homeowners Ask Most

❓ What determines the cost of odor removal?
Odor removal pricing is based on:
  • Total square footage
  • Odor type (pet, smoke, decomposition, skunk, etc.)
  • Severity level
  • How many rooms are affected
  • Whether materials are penetrated (subfloor, drywall, HVAC)
The worse the saturation, the more treatment time + materials required.
❓ What are your actual price ranges?
For a 1,000 sq ft home, average costs are:
  • Freshen & Fog™: $250–$500
  • Whole-Home Odor Reset™ (24 hrs): $500–$750
  • Rapid Odor Reset™ (12 hrs): $1,000–$1,500
Severe biohazard, hoarding, or decomposition odors may exceed $5,000–$15,000 depending on contamination.
❓ Why do some companies charge less than you?
Many low-priced companies are not certified for hazmat, biohazard, or regulated waste. This exposes homeowners & property managers to fines of $16,000–$93,000+ per incident. HazWash™ is fully certified, insured, and compliant with:
  • OSHA HAZWOPER 40
  • Bloodborne Pathogens
  • DOT Hazmat
  • RCRA & EGLE waste rules
Paying less upfront can cost far more in liability.
❓ Why does urine or pet odor cost more to remove?
Pet urine penetrates:
  • Carpet fibers
  • Padding
  • Subfloor
  • Baseboards
Each layer must be treated or sealed. Severe cat urine jobs often require high-intensity oxidizer cycles and multi-stage enzymes.
❓ Does square footage affect the price?
Yes — all three services are priced per sq ft. oxidizing vapors must fill the entire air volume of the structure, not just the rooms that smell.
❓ Do severe odors always cost more?
Yes. Severe odors require:
  • Longer treatment cycles
  • Higher oxidizer concentration
  • Enzyme pre-treatment
  • Post-cleaning or sealing (if needed)
Mild odors can be solved cheaply — severe contamination cannot.
❓ Is demo included in odor removal pricing?
No — these services do NOT include demo:
  • Freshen & Fog™
  • Whole-Home Odor Reset™
  • Rapid Odor Reset™
Demo is only recommended if materials are irreversibly saturated.
❓ Is cleaning included?
No — odor removal ≠ cleaning. Heavy cleaning, hoarding, feces removal, or debris handling is billed separately.
❓ Why is skunk odor removal more expensive?
Skunk thiols bind aggressively to carpet, fabrics, insulation, and HVAC systems. They require high-density oxidizer cycles and deeper penetration than typical odors.
❓ Do smoke or nicotine odors cost more to treat?
Yes — smoke molecules bond to:
  • Paint
  • Drywall
  • Insulation
  • HVAC pathways
Multi-stage cleaning + oxidizer cycles are required.
❓ How fast can you provide a price quote?
Use our 30-second online survey. We call you back in 60 seconds or less and get:
  • What your current issues are.
  • Recommended treatment
  • Same-day scheduling
❓ Can odor removal be financed?
Yes — we offer financing options including:
  • Installment plans
  • Pay-over-time options
Many homeowners choose financing for severe odor remediation.
❓ Why can’t I just use ozone generators?
Ozone:
  • Damages electronics, rubber, and plastics
  • Does not penetrate materials
  • Leaves harmful VOCs
Our oxidizing vapors are deeper, safer, and more effective.
❓ Does insurance cover odor removal?
Sometimes. Insurance may cover:
  • Decomposition odor
  • Biohazard odor
  • Trauma scenes
  • Accidental discharge (HVAC smoke, fire, etc.)
Pet or nicotine odor is usually not covered.
❓ How do I schedule an in-person estimate?
Use our online survey or call us. A certified hazmat technician can be on-site in under 60 minutes for Metro Detroit clients.
