Fire, soot, and the water used to put it out don't pause for morning. Meridian Smoke Damage keeps trucks positioned near Puhi so a technician can be walking your property within the hour, not scheduling you in for next week.
Call +1-866-484-1409Every technician on our Puhi roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.
Working the 96766 corridor day after day gives our team a working knowledge of Puhi code requirements that out-of-town crews simply don't have.
We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Puhi scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.
State-licensed for fire mitigation and reconstruction work.
No voicemail loop — someone picks up and dispatches immediately.
Certified technicians who've handled structural fire losses before.
We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.
Every Puhi job gets logged with dated photos at each stage, which has saved more than one homeowner an argument with their insurer over what was already damaged versus what happened during repairs.

If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.
Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.
Cabinetry and flooring can swell within 24 hours once firefighting water sits without proper extraction.
Soot residue is acidic enough to corrode faucets, hinges, and electronics within about two days if left untreated.
Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
Puhi, HI insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
None of these six signs get better with time. The Puhi properties that come through a fire loss with the least long-term damage are almost always the ones where someone called within the first few hours, not the first few days.
Board-up, tarping, and extraction dispatched the same day to stop a Puhi loss from spreading further.
We treat drywall, contents, and HVAC separately rather than running one blanket chemical wash across everything.

If part of the scope isn't right, we return and fix it at no extra cost.

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.
One coordinator manages your Puhi job from the first call to the final walkthrough.
We'd rather lose a job to a competitor's lower quote than win one by underselling what a Puhi fire loss actually requires — the guarantee only means something if the scope behind it is accurate to begin with.
