About 11% of homes in Fayette County are vacant, and a smell inside a closed house may go unnoticed until a neighbor or an owner stops by. With about 50 inches of rain a year in Bear Rocks, damp air can hold odor longer inside a closed house, so drying and air treatment matter.

Death Odor Removal Frequently Asked Questions in Bear Rocks, PA

Can I sell or rent a home after the smell was removed?

Yes, once it has been cleaned and any repairs are done. Questions about what must be disclosed are best answered by a real estate attorney or agent. A cleanup team can provide records of the work.

What should I ask a death odor removal company before hiring?

Ask how it finds the source, what it removes and what equipment it uses. Ask how it disposes of waste, what the price includes and what happens if a smell remains after treatment.

Do I need to be at the property?

Usually not. Ask the team how keys and access can be arranged. A landlord, property manager or representative can often meet the crew. You can ask the team to set aside keepsakes and papers for you.

How long does the smell of death last?

It lasts until the source is removed. Fluids in carpet, padding and subfloor give off odor for weeks or longer, and warm weather makes it stronger. Opening windows helps for a short time. A cleanup team removes the source and treats the air.

Can I use air fresheners, vinegar or baking soda?

They may cover the smell for a short time, but they do not reach fluids in padding or subfloor. Household products also leave the contamination behind. Source removal and professional treatment are what end the odor.

What methods remove death odor?

Teams use a mix of source removal, disinfection, sealing and air treatment. Equipment can include ozone generators, hydroxyl units, thermal foggers and air scrubbers. Which method fits depends on how far the smell has spread and what the surfaces are made of.
