Troubled by paint odour in newly constructed / renovated house?

To get rid of paint odor from a post-construction house, you can try the following methods:

1. Ventilation: Open all windows and doors to allow fresh air to circulate throughout the house. Use fans to improve airflow and expedite the process. This will help dissipate the paint smell faster.

2. Activated Charcoal: Place bowls filled with activated charcoal in different rooms. Charcoal absorbs odors and can help neutralize the paint smell. Leave them overnight or for a few days before removing.

3. Baking Soda: Sprinkle baking soda on carpets, upholstery, or any fabric-covered surfaces affected by the paint odor. Let it sit for a few hours or overnight, then vacuum thoroughly to remove both the baking soda and trapped odors.

4. Vinegar: Fill bowls with white vinegar and place them in different rooms. Vinegar is known for its odor-absorbing properties and can help eliminate paint smells. Leave them out for a day or two and replace the vinegar as needed.

5. Coffee Grounds: Spread coffee grounds in shallow containers and place them around the house. Coffee absorbs odors effectively and can help mask the paint smell. Replace the coffee grounds every day or as needed.

6. Onions: Cut onions into quarters and place them in bowls of water. Onions are known to absorb strong odors. Leave them overnight to help neutralize the paint smell. Remember to discard the onions and water the next day.

7. Air Purifiers: Consider using air purifiers with activated carbon filters. These filters are specifically designed to trap and eliminate odors, including paint smells, from the air.

8. Fresh Paint: If there are specific areas with strong paint odor, you can consider applying a fresh coat of paint. This may help seal in the existing paint smell and provide a new, less odorous scent. Opt for low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) or odorless paint options.

Remember, the paint odor will gradually dissipate over time. With proper ventilation and the use of odor-absorbing techniques, you can help speed up the process and create a more pleasant environment in your newly constructed house.
