Edmond Home Odor Crisis Resolved—Without the Hassle of Major Flooring Replacement
Situation: Unwelcome Surprise in a New Home
After moving into their dream home in Edmond, a new homeowner discovered an unpleasant surprise: stubborn, lingering pet odors caused by years of untreated pet urine that soaked deeply into carpets and subfloors. On humid Oklahoma days, the odor became especially unbearable.
Problem: DIY Failure and Flooring Fears
The homeowner had already tried every DIY trick and store-bought solution available, without success. They feared their only remaining option was a costly and disruptive full-floor replacement. Worse yet, they worried that professional help might simply mask rather than eliminate the odors completely.
What We Did: Strategic, Science-Backed Odor Removal
Accurate Detection of Odor Sources
We immediately went to work pinpointing the exact areas of contamination using UV lighting and moisture sensors, accurately identifying each problem area.
Targeted Treatment and Minimal Disruption
- 🧪 Enzymatic Cleaning: We carefully lifted carpets and treated both the underside and subfloor with specialized enzymes to eliminate odor-causing bacteria at its source.
- 🔨 Selective Replacement: Only small sections of damaged carpet padding were replaced, significantly reducing the scope and cost of the project.
Air Purification and Complete Neutralization
We utilized hydroxyl generators to thoroughly purify the air, effectively removing residual odors without any safety concerns—allowing the homeowner to comfortably remain in the home throughout the process.
Outcome: Completely Fresh, Significant Savings
The homeowner was thrilled as the stubborn odor disappeared completely, without needing extensive flooring replacements. Our targeted approach saved them thousands of dollars and gave them peace of mind.
