Has a Tenant Left Behind a Nicotine Mess?

If a tenant has smoked inside your rental property, ordinary repainting may not be enough.

We help landlords and property managers restore nicotine-stained walls and ceilings so the property can be properly prepared for its next tenant.

Why Proper Preparation Matters

Painting directly over nicotine damage can allow nicotine stains and odour to bleed back through the new paint.

We thoroughly clean the affected surfaces, apply a high-performance stain-blocking sealer and repaint them with durable interior paint.
