Yes. Formaldehyde removal services like SEMBO are designed for both pre-move and post-move scenarios. In fact, many of our customers only realize the problem after moving in — once they start spending time in the space.
Here’s what we do to ensure it’s safe and effective:
- We test your air quality first to detect current formaldehyde levels
- Our spray-based solution is non-toxic, odorless, and family-safe
- You do not need to move out for the treatment — just ventilate after
Even if your kids or elderly parents are already staying in the home, we can adjust the treatment timing and method to suit your comfort and schedule.
✅ Why It Still Works After You’ve Moved In
Formaldehyde doesn’t disappear overnight. In fact:
đź•’ “Studies show that formaldehyde can continue off-gassing for 3 to 12 months after renovation or new furniture installation.” — WHO, US EPA
This means even if you’ve been staying in the home for weeks or months, there’s still value in removing it now.
Our SEMBO service is designed to:
- Break down formaldehyde molecules in the air and on surfaces
- Work on existing furniture and fabrics (sofas, beds, carpets, curtains)
- Leave your home feeling fresher and safer — even if you’ve already moved in
👨‍👩‍👧 Is It Safe for Kids and Pets?
Absolutely. Our solution is:
- Free from harsh chemicals
- Safe to use around babies and pets
- Quick-drying and residue-free
- Tested and proven for indoor use
We may recommend temporary ventilation for 1–2 hours after treatment, but you don’t need to leave the house overnight or disrupt your routine. For surface, we recommend not cleaning and wiping the surface for 48 hours.
đź“Š Real Cases: Post-Move Formaldehyde Removal Works
Case A: Subang Jaya Condo (Moved in 2 Weeks Ago)
- Reported itchy eyes and strong chemical smell
- Initial reading: 0.23 ppm
- After 2 spray treatments: Reduced to 0.02 ppm
- Family felt relief within 1 day
Case B: Petaling Jaya Home Office (Renovated 3 Months Prior)
- Client had persistent cough
- Post-treatment, symptoms subsided within 48 hours
These are just a few examples — and they show it’s never too late to take action.
🔍 FAQ: Post-Move Formaldehyde Treatment
Q: Will I need to move my furniture out?
No. Our team sprays directly on your walls, sofas, curtains, and surfaces. No major rearranging required.
Q: Will the smell come back after a few days?
No. Our treatment breaks down the formaldehyde permanently. However, additional hidden sources (like new furniture arriving later) can reintroduce it — so ongoing monitoring is helpful.
Q: How long before I feel the difference?
Many clients report improved comfort within 1 day. Some symptoms (like sinus issues) may take a few days to clear up.
💬 Final Thoughts: Don’t Wait Until It Gets Worse
If you’ve already moved in and suspect the air doesn’t feel quite right, trust your body. Formaldehyde isn’t always noticeable — but its effects are.
At SEMBO, we’re here to help you create a safe, breathable space — no matter when you call us in. We believe clean air is a right, not a luxury.
