We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the Havelock properties that got burned twice — once by the fire, once by a slow restoration company. Our crews are staged locally specifically to close that gap.
Call +1-866-484-1409Every technician on our Havelock roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.
Because our crews work 28533 28532 regularly, they already understand which Havelock permitting steps apply to fire reconstruction and roughly how long inspections take before drywall can go back up.
We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Havelock scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.

A real technician answers the Havelock line, any hour.
Fire and smoke restoration credentials, not general labor.
We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.
We also keep a running photo log for every Havelock job — before, during, and after — so there's never a dispute over what condition the property was in at each stage.
