Fire, soot, and the water used to put it out don't pause for morning. Meridian Smoke Damage keeps trucks positioned near Fort Recovery so a technician can be walking your property within the hour, not scheduling you in for next week.
Call +1-866-484-1409We opened in the Fort Recovery area because too many homeowners were getting a two-week wait for a "24/7" restoration company. Our trucks stage locally so that promise actually means something.

An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.
Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.

Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons Fort Recovery, OH fire claims get partially denied.

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.

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 Fort Recovery inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
