Call +1-866-484-1409Meridian Smoke Damage isn't a franchise call center that farms your job out to a subcontractor you've never met. Our White Sands technicians show up, do the assessment, and stay on the job through reconstruction.
Local experience in 88002 means our estimators aren't guessing — they've seen how White Sands's building department handles fire-damage permits dozens of times before.
Meridian Smoke Damage is bonded and insured to operate in White Sands, NM, and our White Sands jobs always start with a signed, itemized scope rather than a verbal ballpark.

If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.
Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.
Cabinetry and flooring can swell within 24 hours once firefighting water sits without proper extraction.
Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.
Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
White Sands, NM insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
Every one of these problems compounds the longer they sit untreated — soot turns more corrosive, odor works deeper into materials, and insurance documentation gets harder to establish after the fact.
First priority is always stopping additional loss: boarding openings, tarping the roof, and pulling standing water.

Our guarantee is signed, not just implied in a sales conversation.

A verbal promise doesn't help you three weeks into a job, so our guarantee goes in writing before we start. If a section of the agreed scope isn't done to standard, we come back and correct it at no charge.
The number we quote after inspection is the number on the final invoice, barring written change orders you approve.
Framing, drywall, and finish work carry a one-year guarantee.
You won't be bounced between five different subcontractors on this job.
A guarantee is only as good as the scope it's attached to, which is why we spend extra time getting the initial White Sands inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
