We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the Kendall 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 Kendall roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.
Working the 33173 33176 33156 33116 33256 33283 33296 corridor day after day gives our team a working knowledge of Kendall code requirements that out-of-town crews simply don't have.
We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Kendall scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.
Full coverage on every job we run in Kendall, FL.
No voicemail loop — someone picks up and dispatches immediately.
Fire and smoke restoration credentials, not general labor.

We also keep a running photo log for every Kendall job — before, during, and after — so there's never a dispute over what condition the property was in at each stage.

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.
Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.
Soot residue is acidic enough to corrode faucets, hinges, and electronics within about two days if left untreated.
Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.
Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons Kendall, FL fire claims get partially denied.
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.

We talk to your adjuster directly and send documentation they can act on.
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.
Reconstruction work is covered against defects for a full year after completion.
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 Kendall inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
