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 Edwardsville technicians show up, do the assessment, and stay on the job through reconstruction.
Working the 66111 66113 corridor day after day gives our team a working knowledge of Edwardsville code requirements that out-of-town crews simply don't have.

We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.
