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 Palouse technicians show up, do the assessment, and stay on the job through reconstruction.

Reconstruction work is covered against defects for a full year after completion.
