We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the Los Alamos 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 +1-866-484-1409We opened in the Los Alamos 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.
Local experience in 87544 87545 means our estimators aren't guessing — they've seen how Los Alamos's building department handles fire-damage permits dozens of times before.
We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Los Alamos 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.
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 Los Alamos 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.
Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.
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 Los Alamos, NM fire claims get partially denied.
None of these six signs get better with time. The Los Alamos 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.
Same-day securing of the structure — board-up, tarping, water removal — before the damage compounds.
Thermal fogging paired with HEPA filtration clears residue that surface cleaning alone would leave behind.
We plan around your operating hours wherever the damage allows partial reopening during the rebuild.
We rebuild to Los Alamos, NM code, with inspections scheduled as part of the project timeline, not an afterthought.
Persistent odor after a Los Alamos fire usually needs equipment-based treatment, which is what this service actually is.
Inventoried pack-out with ultrasonic cleaning for salvageable belongings while the Los Alamos property is under repair.
A real person answers and gets the crew moving right away.
Structural safety, moisture, and soot readings get documented before any work starts.
Work follows the plan you signed off on, with daily photo updates.
Nothing gets closed out until you've confirmed the work in person.
A scope and number in writing before any work starts on your Los Alamos property.
Same-day arrival is realistic because we're already positioned near Los Alamos.
We talk to your adjuster directly and send documentation they can act on.
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.
Change orders require your written sign-off — nothing gets added to the bill without it.
Framing, drywall, and finish work carry a one-year guarantee.
One coordinator manages your Los Alamos job from the first call to the final walkthrough.
A guarantee is only as good as the scope it's attached to, which is why we spend extra time getting the initial Los Alamos inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
