Consultant Cigarette Smoke Odour Removal Services

How does thirdhand smoke affect a property’s value?

Thirdhand smoke in a property can create difficulties for potential buyers or tenants, leading to lower demand and ultimately decreasing the property's value. Cigarette odours can infiltrate walls, carpets, curtains, and other porous materials, making them challenging to remove.

Additionally, it can cause discolouration and staining on surfaces, such as walls, ceilings, and furniture, making the property appear unclean and poorly maintained, further reducing its desirability and value.

Individuals who do not smoke may not want to consider or invest in a property with thirdhand smoke exposure. Thirdhand smoke carries health concerns that also make it challenging to attract potential buyers or tenants.

These concerns can discourage people from choosing a property contaminated with thirdhand smoke, further decreasing demand, and lowering property values.

Property owners may need to invest in professional cleaning services, treat contaminated materials, and conduct extensive renovations to eliminate smoke damage.

These expenses can deter potential buyers or tenants who may not be willing or able to pay them, resulting in a decline in property values, often up to 29%.

Can you test for invisible smoke residue?

While several devices on the market claim to detect smoke particles in the air, it is crucial to remain cautious and consider their accuracy and reliability.

Do all smoking products produce thirdhand smoke?

Indoor use of smoking products such as cigarettes, cigars, vapes, smoking pipes, marijuana, water pipes or hookahs releases harmful chemicals in the smoke.

These chemicals, including nicotine, tar, and carbon monoxide, can cause severe harm to both smokers and those exposed to the smoke. It is important to note that any form of smoking can lead to thirdhand smoke, not just cigarettes.

Even though vaping or e-cigarettes don't leave a strong odour, the chemicals in the vapour can still cling to surfaces and pose health risks.
