Smoke smell from renter
Rental unit smells like smoke. Tenants lived there over 10 years and smoked. Carpet was absolutely nasty and disintegrating when removed. Painted walls, ceilings with 2 coats of oil base primer and finish coat. Left the kitchen cabinets, but painted them (the face, not inside). Still smells. Also installed new windows which i think has no effect. Replaced air filters but didn't have ducts cleaned. Maybe paint the subfloor before installing new flooring? Anyone have experience with this? submitted by /u/After-Advisor-8936 [link] [comments]
