Answers About Removing Death Odor in Lake Davis / Greenwood, Orlando, FL

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.

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.

Does warm weather make the odor worse?

Yes. Heat speeds the changes behind the odor and makes it stronger and wider spreading. A closed home with the air conditioning off can hold a strong smell. The steps stay the same, but acting soon after the scene is released helps.

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.

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.

Can the smell spread to other rooms or apartments?

Yes. Odor moves through vents, door gaps and shared walls. A closed unit can pass a smell to a hallway or the next apartment. Crews trace the path and treat every area the smell reached.
