Fire, Smoke & Soot Cleanup in Century Village

About the area

Cleanup tailored to Century Village's condos

Century Village in west Boca Raton is one of the area's best-known 55+ active-adult communities — roughly 5,700 one- and two-bedroom condominiums across more than 100 low-rise buildings, built between about 1970 and 1995. With thousands of residents living in compact, stacked units of 600 to 1,500 square feet, the construction era and the density are exactly what make fire, smoke, and soot cleanup here different from a detached home.

A few realities shape our work in Century Village:

• Tightly shared buildings. With units stacked and sharing walls, floors, and ventilation, smoke odor moves between condos readily. A single kitchen mishap or a smoker in one unit can leave neighbors dealing with the smell.
• Original kitchens and appliances. Many units retain older ranges and wiring, and cooking and grease fires are the most common incident we're called for here.
• Frequent unit turnover. As condos change hands, removing years of cigarette or cooking odor before a sale or new resident is one of our most common Century Village requests.

What we see most here

• Stovetop and grease fires in original condo kitchens
• Smoke odor passing between adjacent or stacked units
• Candle and cooking soot on condo walls and ceilings
• Pre-sale and turnover deodorization for units being resold

Working respectfully in a 55+ community

We approach Century Village work with the care it deserves — minimizing disruption, keeping the space safe and clean, and communicating clearly with residents, families, and association management as needed. West Boca's humidity keeps smoke residue and odor active, and the buildings' shared HVAC spreads it, so we treat the full affected area rather than just the visible spot. Sitting in unincorporated west Boca, Century Village is served by Palm Beach County Fire Rescue; our work begins once the scene is safe.
