HOW TO TAKE OFF CIGARETTE SMELL FROM RUBBER PROFESSIONAL
We hired professional cleaners to wash the tongue and groove and tree trucks in the great room (this is a cabin style house), tore out carpets and curtains, washed every single surface including windows and door hinges, used two coats of smell blocking primer and then painted, used shellac on the wood, replaced the furnace and a/c and had ducts cleaned, ripped out the kitchen and replaced cabinets and flooring, replaced anything and everything with a motor or that generated heat (including outlets and switches), left nothing undone - the house still smelled like an ashtray. Unfortunately, when houses are being sold well above asking and there are dozens of offers on one house, they would not consider anyone who wanted an inspection. He was actually guaranteeing fresh air in the great room. We only spent 30 or so minutes in the house, and one of the family members was there constantly opening and closing the door, saying he was waiting for UPS. We did not get an official inspection although an engineer looked at the mechanics and build. The market here has been tight for several years, we already sold our house and were living in a Residence Inn with two big dogs. They painted over nicotine and aired it out before we came. We bought a smoker's house without realizing it, three years ago.
