Smoke and Odour Deep Cleaning in Al Bateen
Smoke and stale smells sit in a film on walls, ceilings and fabric. That film is washed off hard surfaces with a degreasing cleaner, and soft furnishings are vacuumed and wet cleaned. In Al Bateen, we send a villa crew or an apartment team to suit the home. A supervisor visits first, and the written quotation follows before any work begins.

What is included
A complete clean of every room, surface, fitting and fixture in the home, scoped in writing and signed off against fourteen checks. Deep cleaning reaches what weekly housekeeping leaves behind: the tops of wardrobes, AC grilles, window tracks, the grease line behind the cooker and the limescale that hard water leaves on glass and chrome. A supervised crew from The MELLS works through the home in a fixed order so nothing is missed and nothing is cleaned twice.
- Source of the smell traced before any product is chosen
- Walls, ceilings and doors washed with a degreasing cleaner
- AC grilles and washable filters removed, washed and dried
- Curtains, upholstery and carpets vacuumed, then wet cleaned if agreed
How we carry out smoke and odour deep cleaning
Cigarette, shisha and cooking smoke leave a sticky yellow film that holds the smell. Airing a room does not shift it. The crew washes ceilings, walls, doors, window frames and light fittings with a degreasing cleaner, changing the water often, and rinses each area. Inside cupboards and wardrobes are wiped as well, since smoke gets into closed spaces. AC grilles and washable filters come out and are washed. Curtains, sofas, mattresses and carpets are HEPA vacuumed and, where agreed, extraction cleaned.
In a closed, air conditioned home the same air passes through the AC many times a day, so the coil, ducts and filters take up smoke and feed it back. Fragrance sprays and fogging on their own cover a smell for a short while and then it returns. Some sources lie beyond cleaning: smoke soaked into matt paint, carpet underlay or foam may need repainting or replacement. At the site visit we trace where the smell is strongest and tell you plainly what cleaning can and cannot do.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Site visit and written quotation. A supervisor visits, measures and records every room, surface and extra. The written quotation that follows sets out the scope, with no hourly meter and nothing added on the day.
- Protect and prepare. Lifts, floors and furniture are protected and delicate finishes are logged on a surface register before any product is opened.
- Dry before wet, top before bottom. Dust is lifted with HEPA filtered vacuums from ceilings and fittings downwards. Each zone is then wet cleaned with chemistry matched to its finish.
- Detail work and floors. Tracks, switches, skirtings, handles and glass are finished by hand. Floors are machine scrubbed last so nothing is walked back in.
- Inspection and report. The supervisor signs all fourteen checks, photographs the result and sends you the report within the hour.
Smoke and Odour Deep Cleaning in Al Bateen: what we plan for
Al Bateen runs along the western shore of Abu Dhabi island, south of the Corniche, and is one of the city's oldest prime addresses. Large private villas fill the inland streets. The waterfront holds Al Bateen Park with its villas, townhouses and low rise Plaza apartments, the Marasy and Bloom Marina buildings around the marina, hotel residences, and the separate villa island of Nareel.
Sea air comes off the marina and the open water to the west, so glass, railings and outdoor AC units collect a salt film within days. Mature gardens drop leaves and pollen into pools and gutters, and irrigation on the older plots leaves white mineral rings on boundary walls and paving. Large Al Bateen villas are walked room by room before a programme is written, with majlis areas, staff quarters and outdoor kitchens listed as separate items. On the waterfront, salt is rinsed off glass and frames with clean water before the squeegee goes on, because wiping dry salt drags it across the pane.
Al Bateen Park, Nareel Island and the marina buildings have gate security, so the resident registers our team in advance. Apartments need a work permit and a service lift booking. Exterior work may need master community approval, identified at the site visit; we prepare the paperwork.

Questions about smoke and odour deep cleaning in Al Bateen
What does smoke and odour deep cleaning include?
Smoke and stale smells sit in a film on walls, ceilings and fabric. That film is washed off hard surfaces with a degreasing cleaner, and soft furnishings are vacuumed and wet cleaned. The work includes source of the smell traced before any product is chosen; walls, ceilings and doors washed with a degreasing cleaner; aC grilles and washable filters removed, washed and dried.
Can you remove a cigarette smell completely?
No honest contractor can promise that. Washing the film off hard surfaces, cleaning the fabric and washing the AC filters reduces it a great deal in most homes. Where smoke has soaked into paint or foam, repainting or replacing those items is what finishes the job.
Would an air freshener or fogging treatment do the same job?
Not on its own. A fragrance or fog treats the air while the residue stays on the walls, the fabric and the AC filters, so the smell comes back as soon as the scent fades. We take the residue off by washing and extraction, which is slower but lasts longer.
How much does smoke and odour deep cleaning cost in Al Bateen?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size of the property and number of rooms; condition, and how long since the last deep clean. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.

How long does smoke and odour deep cleaning take?
Typically 4 to 8 hours for most apartments, and 1 to 2 days for most villas with a crew of four to six. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Is sofa, carpet or mattress cleaning included?
Soft furnishings are quoted as optional extras so you only pay for what you need. Most clients add them to the same visit because the crew and machines are already on site.
What is the difference between deep cleaning and regular cleaning?
Regular cleaning keeps visible surfaces tidy. Deep cleaning removes the build up that regular cleaning cannot reach, including grease behind appliances, limescale on glass and chrome, dust on high ledges and inside cabinets, and sand packed into window tracks. It uses machines, specialist chemistry and a larger supervised crew.
How often should a home in Al Bateen be deep cleaned?
Twice a year suits most homes in Abu Dhabi. Homes near the coast, near construction or with pets, young children or allergy sufferers benefit from a deep clean every three to four months.
