SERVPRO is an Expert Water Damage Restoration Team in Downtown Chicago that Can Combat Unpleasant Odor in your Home

The first step in getting rid of an unpleasant odor is to find the root cause. Sometimes the reason may be apparent such as in a sewer back up or microbial infestation. At other times, it may be challenging to find the exact source. SERVPRO is here to help residents:

• Burst pipes
• Water damage remediation
• Cleaning up after sewer backup

Removing the odor is a core part of water damage restoration in your Downtown Chicago home. Determining precisely the source and remedy of each odor would require an encyclopedic knowledge of chemistry and a vast array of equipment. To keep our restoration service time-efficient, we use a multiple methods approach that works to remove odor.

• Masking agents come as product additives or time releasing beads. We use these to reduce odor until it disperses naturally from home.
• Disinfectants and sanitizers are used to destroy odor-causing microorganisms such as bacteria common in water intrusion events.
• Electrically generated deodorizers like Ozone gas breakdown odors at a molecular level but are rarely used in residential properties.
