Yes. In most cases. Our nicotine cleaning can completely remove, or at least significantly reduce yellow and brown staining from walls, ceilings, and other surfaces. In severe cases, we would recommend nicotine cleaning and then prepare the surfaces so they’re ready for sealing and repainting.

Our process neutralises smoke odours at the source rather than just masking them. This makes your property feel genuinely fresh again. However, please keep in mind that furniture and fabrics can retain the smell. We can recommend ways to get this sorted if you want to keep furniture etc.

Nicotine and tar residues contain toxins and carcinogens, sometimes called “third-hand smoke.” These can be absorbed into surfaces and re-released into the air, irritating the lungs and especially affecting children, the elderly, and people with asthma or allergies.

Absolutely. We use professional-grade cleaning products that are safe once dry. There are measures we can take to protect your home for everyone, and we ventilate the property thoroughly during and after cleaning.

The time it takes us to get in and out really depends on the property in question and the extent of the smoking. A home with heavy smokers for many decades will require more labour and cleaning products than a property that’s had a problem tenant for 6 months. We’ll give you a clear time estimate before starting.

Not always. Many customers are amazed at how fresh the walls and ceilings look after a deep clean. For very heavy staining, repainting may be recommended — but cleaning first ensures better paint adhesion and finish.

We always assess a property, but generally pricing depends on the size of the property and the level of staining. We’ll ask for pictures or a video of the property in the first instance and then either arrange a visit if required. Then you’ll receive a free no-obligation quote.
