Removing smoke odors and nicotine stains
Did you know that the tar and nicotine in tobacco cause yellowish stains on walls and ceilings? Not only is this unsightly, but it can also cause a foul odor. The toxic substances in smoke literally seep into the surfaces and continue to emit a foul odor, no matter how often you open the windows to air out the room.
It's worth the effort to clean up cigarette smoke and nicotine stains. Your home will smell fresher because you know it's clean, and (if you plan to) it will sell more easily.
A smoke-filled home creates an unhealthy living environment. Residents are exposed to it 24/7. You can’t let that happen!
In this video, you’ll see how we use a three-motor vacuum cleaner to remove nicotine from a ceiling. Before we do this, we spray the ceiling (or wall) with a special industrial cleaning solution to loosen the nicotine. Finally, we use an ozone treatment to ensure that the odor is 100% gone.

How to Remove Nicotine Stains: Here's How We Do It
To tackle this time-consuming task effectively, we’ll follow a series of steps to rid your space of cigarette smoke.
- We thoroughly cover the area to be cleaned as needed. This means we cover the floor and any carpeting that is being cleaned. We also cover the baseboards where necessary to prevent cleaning solution and dirty water from seeping between the wall and the baseboard.
- Since we do a lot of overhead work, our employees put on protective clothing and wear safety goggles and face masks.
- We use industrial cleaning products to effectively loosen the nicotine. We spray the surfaces with the cleaning solution. Then we use a special vacuum cleaner to remove the moisture from the ceiling or wall. If necessary, we repeat this step.
- Now the room needs to dry for at least 24 hours. A few days would be even better. After that, the walls will be ready for a new coat of paint.
- If it’s still necessary after that, we’ll resort to the ultimate solution: OZONE. This allows us to destroy the molecules that cause the odor. Our OZONE equipment is so powerful that it can eliminate even the smell of a decomposing body in a “split second.” This is purely specialized work that can only be performed by experts like 12B Clean under strict safety conditions.
