You walk into your office or home and actually smell nothing. Not that fake floral cover-up scent, not that lingering pet accident from last month, not the cigarette smoke that’s been haunting your property for years.
Just clean air. That’s what happens when odor removal is done right.
Most people try the DIY route first. Baking soda, vinegar, those expensive candles that promise miracles. But here’s the thing: those solutions push odor molecules deeper into your carpets, walls, and furniture. You’re not solving the problem—you’re making it worse.
Real odor removal means finding the source and eliminating it completely. Whether it’s pet urine that’s soaked into subflooring, smoke particles embedded in your HVAC system, or mold creating that musty smell, we locate where it’s actually coming from and break down the molecules causing the problem.
Team Alpha Cleaning Services is a family-run operation that launched with one goal: provide the kind of deep clean that actually gets results. We’re not another general cleaning company trying to do everything—we specialize in problems that regular cleaning can’t handle.
Our team serves Merchantville and surrounding South Jersey communities with professional-grade equipment and techniques. We’re licensed, insured, and committed to getting results you can actually smell—or rather, stop smelling.
What makes us different in the Merchantville market is simple: we don’t cut corners. When other companies mask odors with perfumes or rush through the job, we take the time to identify every contaminated area and treat it properly. That’s why we can offer a 30-day guarantee on our work.
First, we identify the odor source through inspection and testing. This isn’t guesswork—we use moisture meters and UV detection lights to locate where the smell is actually coming from, whether it’s deep in carpet padding, inside walls, or absorbed into subflooring.
Next, we apply the right treatment for your specific situation. Pet urine gets enzyme treatments and extraction. Smoke damage requires ozone generators and thermal fogging. Musty smells from mold need specialized decontamination. Each odor type requires different chemistry, and we have the equipment to handle all of them.
Finally, we verify the results with testing to make sure the odor is completely eliminated, not just covered up. Most jobs are completed in 2-4 hours, with results immediately noticeable. We use EPA-approved products that are safe for occupied homes, and if any treated odor comes back within 30 days, we return at no charge.

Every odor removal service includes source identification, professional-grade treatment, and verification testing. You get our specialized equipment including moisture meters, UV detection lights, ozone generators, and commercial-grade extraction tools—not the rental-grade stuff you’d find at the hardware store.
We handle the three most common odor problems in Merchantville properties: pet urine removal with enzyme treatments and extraction, smoke odor removal using ozone and thermal fogging, and musty smell removal from mold or mildew sources. All treatments use safe, non-toxic products approved for homes with children and pets.
Here’s something most companies won’t tell you: professional odor removal typically costs 10-20% of what you’d spend replacing carpets, furniture, or flooring. A typical room treatment ranges from $200-500, while replacing carpet and padding in the same room often costs $2,000-4,000. Even expensive treatments for whole-house smoke damage usually cost less than replacing all affected furnishings. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees, and first-time customers receive a discount on their initial service.
Most odor removal jobs are completed in 2-4 hours, with results immediately noticeable. However, the timeline depends on the source and severity of the odor problem.
Simple surface odors from spills or light pet accidents can often be resolved in a single visit. More complex situations—like smoke damage that’s penetrated your HVAC system or pet urine that’s crystallized in subflooring—may require multiple treatments over several days.
For ozone treatments, we do require the space to be unoccupied during application and for a few hours afterward, but this is only needed for severe smoke or chemical odors. Most of our enzyme treatments and deodorizers are safe to use while you’re in the building.
When done correctly, professional odor removal eliminates the source permanently. Unlike air fresheners or home remedies that mask smells, we break down the actual molecules causing the odor.
However, if the source isn’t completely removed—like urine that’s soaked into subflooring—the smell can return. That’s why we use moisture meters and UV lights to find all contaminated areas, not just the visible spots.
We guarantee our work for 30 days and will return free if any treated odor comes back. This rarely happens because we locate and treat the actual source of the problem, not just the symptoms you can smell.
Yes, we use EPA-approved products and methods that are safe for occupied homes. Our enzyme treatments and most deodorizers are non-toxic and biodegradable.
For ozone treatments, we do require the space to be unoccupied during application and for a few hours afterward, but this is only needed for severe smoke or chemical odors. We always explain which products we’re using and any temporary precautions needed.
All of our solutions are safe for children, pets, and the environment. We prioritize your family’s safety, which is why we use plant-based products whenever possible and follow strict safety protocols for any specialized treatments.
Professional odor removal typically costs 10-20% of what you’d spend replacing carpets, furniture, or flooring. A typical room treatment ranges from $200-500, while replacing carpet and padding in the same room often costs $2,000-4,000.
Even expensive treatments for whole-house smoke damage usually cost less than replacing all affected furnishings. The cost varies based on factors like the source and severity of the odor, the size of the affected area, and the methods required to completely eliminate the smell.
We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees, and many clients find the investment pays for itself by avoiding replacement costs or protecting their security deposit. First-time customers receive a discount on their initial service.
Yes, even old pet urine can be successfully treated, though it requires more intensive methods. Urine that’s been present for months has usually crystallized and soaked deep into padding and subflooring.
We use specialized extraction equipment to remove contaminated materials and apply enzyme treatments that break down these crystallized deposits. The process involves identifying all affected areas with UV detection lights, since old urine stains aren’t always visible to the naked eye.
This type of treatment typically takes longer than fresh accidents and may require multiple applications, but we can eliminate even the most stubborn pet odors. Our 30-day guarantee covers this work, so if any smell returns, we’ll come back at no charge.
