Need Odor Removal?

Say Goodbye to Bad Smells

Sometimes odors can be worse than an unwelcome guest—they linger and are hard to get rid of. While there are many products and tricks you can try, the vast majority aren't as effective as you may like. Fortunately, our team at SERVPRO of Alexander, Caldwell, Burke and Catawba Counties has worked with many property owners in the Lenoir, Morganton and Hickory, NC communities, so we are confident in our ability to completely remove offensive odors. For example, we have successfully eliminated the following types of odors:

  • Skunk spray
  • Cigarette smoke
  • Decomposing animals
  • Rotten food
  • Pet urine

SERVPRO’s 4-Step Odor Removal Process


1.svg

Remove the Odor Source

Debris containing odor-causing residues will continue to give off odors. That’s why we deal with the source of the odor first.

Clean Residues From Surfaces

After the source of the odor is removed, it’s important to thoroughly clean surfaces to deodorize them effectively. If not properly cleaned, tiny particles of the odor-causing residues will continue to smell.

Recreate the Conditions That Caused Odor Penetration

We apply deodorizer in a method similar to how the odor-causing substances originally penetrated a surface. If smoke created the smell, for instance, deodorizing smoke or fog might be most effective.

Seal Surfaces Exposed To Unpleasant Odors

Severe situations may require sealing if odor removal would be insufficient.

Commercial Odor Removal Services

Removing persistent smells from your commercial property—office, warehouse, hospital, apartments, and more—can be quite a challenge. Unpleasant smells can drive customers away and make things difficult for employees. Getting rid of the odor, completely and quickly, can avoid interruption of your normal operations. 

Our uniquely trained professionals will work with you to get your company smelling fresh and back to business as quickly as possible, keeping downtime and lost revenue to a minimum.

What our
customers are saying

Alan at Servpro was very responsive to assess the damage from an exploded lithium-ion battery. He gave proper quotes and estimates and was able to mobilize the team quickly. Juana and her team did a great job cleaning out the mess and thoroughly getting into all the places where the smoke had left soot. Thank you all for your work to help me get back to normal.

When I had a mold issue in my home, Andrew and Mick came out and immediately placed air scrubbers and de-humidifiers. Then their team wiped everything down. Servpro really made me feel like I was the only customer they had! They were efficient and knowledgeable about my situation. I can't say enough about how much they put me at ease. I highly recommend this company!

Appalachian Stone

Alan and the team worked hard to get a tough job completed. I appreciate the fact that Alan came out and reviewed the jobsite, took feedback on a few items, and allocated additional time to ensure the job was completed in its entirety.

Jonathan always answered any questions that I had. The work was done the next day from when I called. Would use ServPro again.

On Sept 3rd 2025 at 2am we had a terrible house fire. We lost half of our belongings and our house had to be gutted from foundation up. ServPro came in ready Monday at 7 rocking and rolling ready to go. These ladies worked nonstop. Hard as a crew of men, excuse me, HARDER then the crew who rebuilt our house. Lol. Amazing, caring, kind, supportive and more. The head lady, Kaitlyn, over Packing at ServPro and her team, Jeslin & Araceli busted butt! Throwing away items damaged, packing item possibly salvagable and comforting us, making us laugh, showing kindness and professionalism all in one. We couldn't have done this without their awesome help. The special cleaning crew Ana, Maribel, Ingrid, Dania professionaly cleaned our clothes, shoes, books, picture frames to my China and dinner set and silverware. Unbelievable! We had nothing but the clothes on our backs when we left our home at 4am that early morning. Our State State Farm Adjuster & Tammy Gragg got ahold of our agent who gave us Emerg.money to buy clothes, food, medications. This amazing Business needs to be recognized in Lenoir News, given an Award for Esteemed Service for such an amazing job they do for the citizens in our Community and ALL over. We couldn't have been more BLESSED with such a great group of hard wrking women. Tammy Gragg, be Proud of your team!

April Baker

We had an exceptional experience with SERVPRO of Alexander, Caldwell & Burke Counties, especially during the busy turn season. Tammy, the team lead, was incredibly organized, professional, and flexible when navigating the typical challenges that come with turn. Ingrid, Leyda, Juana, Kaitlyn, and Maricruz were absolutely amazing! They were thorough, hardworking, and paid close attention to detail. The entire team went above and beyond to make sure the cleaning was done properly and to a high standard. We truly appreciate their professionalism, communication, and willingness to work with us throughout the process. We would highly recommend SERVPRO of Alexander, Caldwell & Burke Counties, to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and hardworking cleaning team!

About Us

Our Story

Hi, we’re Kim and Randy Williams, the proud owners of SERVPRO of Alexander, Caldwell, Burke and Catawba Counties.

After years in the restoration and cleanup industry, we decided to start our own SERVPRO franchise, which we incorporated in January 2009, just after the recession hit. While it was a slow start, we took every job and treated our customers with empathy and respect. Today, we have over 70 employees and operate four franchises that serve the entire Unifour region, including Lenoir, NC; Morganton, NC; Hickory, NC; Newton, NC; and Conover, NC. Our employees take to the streets 24/7/365 to meet the disaster restoration needs of our customers. We are here to help and make any size disaster “Like it never even happened.”

Our Employees

Our mission is to develop a team of quality people who focus on excellent service, fairness and mutual respect. This simple concept has driven our growth and we believe will continue to do so for years to come. All of our employees are uniformed, energetic, and ready to respond to emergencies. We are also a Clean Trust (IICRC) Certified Firm, and all of our Crew Chiefs are certified technicians!

Because we are part of a nationwide system of qualified franchises, no damage is too large or too small for our team of heroes!

Our Services

We offer a wide range of services to our communities with a 98% satisfaction rate from surveys conducted with our customers. Our local services include, but are not limited to: commercial and residential fire, smoke and soot damage, water restoration, mold mitigation and remediation, biohazard cleanup, deodorizing and much more.

In the last few years, we have performed fire damage cleanup and restoration and/or water damage mitigation for Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Valley Hills Mall, South Park Mall in Charlotte, Hildebran town hall and Bernhardt Furniture in Lenoir.

We are also certified as an LLRT (large loss restoration team) through SERVPRO corporate and have deployed teams to disasters such as Superstorm Sandy, the floods of Chicago and the devastation of our east coast by Hurricane Florence.

We are a preferred vendor for large insurance companies and participate by invitation in structured vendor programs and contracts.

Our State-of-the-Art Equipment

We operate an on-site textile cleaning facility and warehouse for recovering damaged items from fire and smoke damage. The cleaning room has commercial washers, dryers and an Esporta cleaning system (capable or restoring over 85% of items previously considered non-restorable).

We also have ultrasonic equipment, an ozone room and a heated drying chamber to properly dry materials. The ultrasonic machines allow us to clean items that previously would have been claimed unsalvageable!

Community Involvement

We serve our community beyond our cleanup and restoration services; we encourage our employees to become involved in community activities and groups. We are active participants in community events such as the NC Fire and Safety Bowl competition, local festivals and parades. We support and participate in local causes that benefit schools, first responders and charitable community organizations.

We also strive to educate our clients and customers through CE classes offered quarterly at no cost, as well as “lunch and learns” periodically to increase knowledge of services offered.

Certifications

We make sure that we provide the best results for our customers, so we obtained the following qualifications:

  • Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting
  • Lead Renovation Certified Firm
  • Clean Trust (IICRC) Certified Firm
  • Certified Microbial Remediation Supervisor (from the American Council for Accredited Certification and the Indoor Air Quality Association)
  • NADCA member with two ASCS on staff
