You light your oud because it connects you to your culture and brings peace to your home. But when that beautiful fragrance turns into stubborn odors that cling to everything, it stops being a blessing and starts being a problem.
Regular cleaning doesn’t touch oud residue. The sticky resin particles burrow deep into your carpets, walls, and fabrics where household cleaners can’t reach them. You end up with a house that smells like artificial flowers mixed with old smoke.
After our Arabic Oud cleaning service, you walk through your front door and breathe easily. No more worrying about what guests think. No more choosing between your traditions and a clean-smelling home. The deep, penetrating odors are completely gone, and your home feels light and welcoming again.
Team Alpha Cleaning Services specializes in what most cleaning companies avoid – the unique challenges that come from regular oud and incense use. We’re not a national franchise with rotating staff who treat your home like just another job.
We’re a local family business serving Mullica and surrounding New Jersey communities. Our team receives specific training on cultural sensitivity around oud practices because we understand these aren’t just “air fresheners” but important traditions that deserve respect.
Most cleaning companies try to handle oud smoke like any other odor, which is why they fail. We’ve invested in professional-grade equipment and techniques designed specifically for resin-based smoke removal.
First, we assess your home to identify where smoke and odors have settled. Oud doesn’t just affect the room where you burn it – the resin particles travel through your HVAC system and settle in unexpected places throughout your house.
Next, we use specialized cleaning solutions designed specifically for breaking down agarwood compounds. These aren’t your typical household cleaners. We treat surfaces, fabrics, and air circulation systems with techniques that eliminate embedded odors instead of just covering them up.
Finally, we run professional-grade air purification equipment that removes odor molecules from the air itself. This prevents the smell from returning and gives you a truly fresh starting point. The whole process typically takes 4-6 hours, and you’ll notice the difference immediately.

Your Arabic Oud cleaning service covers every surface where smoke particles settle. We clean walls, ceilings, fabrics, carpets, and upholstery using methods that won’t damage your belongings while completely eliminating embedded odors.
HVAC system cleaning is included because oud smoke gets pulled into your air ducts and blown back out into rooms you’ve already cleaned. That’s why many people feel like odors return quickly after other cleaning attempts. We clean the air ducts, vents, and filters where residue accumulates.
Many Mullica residents are surprised to learn how far oud smoke travels through their homes. The resin particles stick to everything and keep releasing odors long after burning stops. Our professional air purifier service runs throughout the process, capturing microscopic particles that regular ventilation misses.
Arabic Oud creates thick, oily resin when burned that’s completely different from regular incense or candle smoke. This agarwood resin sticks to surfaces and penetrates deep into fabrics, creating buildup that standard cleaning products can’t remove.
Regular house cleaning will just move the residue around or temporarily mask the odors. We use specialized solutions designed specifically for breaking down agarwood compounds and removing them completely, not just covering them up with air fresheners.
We also include air purification as part of every service, something most cleaning companies don’t offer. The difference is permanent results versus temporary masking.
Absolutely not. We respect that burning Arabic Oud is part of your cultural or spiritual practices, and we’d never ask you to stop. Our cleaning process is designed so you can continue using oud while maintaining a fresh-smelling home.
We’ll show you simple maintenance steps that slow down residue buildup between professional cleanings. The goal is balance – you keep your traditions, and your home stays comfortable for everyone who lives there or visits.
Most clients see significant improvement for 3-6 months with regular oud burning, compared to the overwhelming buildup they had before our service.
Most Arabic Oud cleaning services take 4-6 hours depending on your home size and how long odors have been building up. We start with a quick assessment to give you an accurate timeframe.
Homes with heavy resin buildup or multiple rooms affected may take longer, but we’ll let you know upfront. The process can’t be rushed if you want lasting results – we need time to properly treat surfaces and address your ventilation system.
You can typically use your rooms normally within a few hours of completion, though full air circulation improvement continues for 24-48 hours after we finish.
Yes, our cleaning products are designed to be safe around families and pets while still being powerful enough to eliminate stubborn resin residue. We use professional-grade equipment that doesn’t require harsh chemicals that could create new health concerns in your home.
Many of our Mullica clients have young children and appreciate that our process improves their indoor air quality without introducing new toxins. We ensure proper ventilation throughout the process, and you don’t need to leave your home during our service.
Our team is also fully bonded and insured, with background checks required for all team members before they enter client homes.
Our pricing depends on your home’s size and the extent of odor penetration, but most residential oud cleaning services range from $200-500. This includes complete surface cleaning, fabric treatment, air purification, and HVAC system cleaning – not just spraying air freshener and calling it done.
We offer first-time customer discounts to make it easier to try our service. The cost covers professional equipment and techniques that homeowners don’t typically have access to, solving a problem you probably can’t fix yourself.
Consider that this prevents potential damage to your home’s value from persistent odors and lets you continue enjoying your cultural practices without worry.
Most families who regularly burn oud or incense benefit from professional cleaning every 3-6 months, but it depends on how frequently you burn these products and your home’s ventilation. If you burn oud daily, you might need service more often.
We apply protective treatments that slow down new residue accumulation, so even when you do need another cleaning, it won’t be as intensive as the first time. Many families find they can go much longer between professional cleanings once we’ve removed the existing buildup.
We can recommend a maintenance schedule based on your specific usage patterns and help you with simple techniques to prevent excessive buildup between visits.
