We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the Port Townsend 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 +1-866-484-1409Meridian Smoke Damage isn't a franchise call center that farms your job out to a subcontractor you've never met. Our Port Townsend technicians show up, do the assessment, and stay on the job through reconstruction.
Because our crews work 98368 regularly, they already understand which Port Townsend permitting steps apply to fire reconstruction and roughly how long inspections take before drywall can go back up.
We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Port Townsend 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.
A real technician answers the Port Townsend line, any hour.
Certified technicians who've handled structural fire losses before.
We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.
We also keep a running photo log for every Port Townsend 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.
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.
Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.
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 Port Townsend, WA fire claims get partially denied.
None of these six signs get better with time. The Port Townsend 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 Port Townsend loss from spreading further.
We treat drywall, contents, and HVAC separately rather than running one blanket chemical wash across everything.
Phased scopes that let Port Townsend businesses reopen unaffected sections while the rest of the rebuild continues.
We rebuild to Port Townsend, WA code, with inspections scheduled as part of the project timeline, not an afterthought.
Hydroxyl generators and thermal fogging break down odor at the source instead of masking it with fragrance.

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.
Framing, drywall, and finish work carry a one-year guarantee.

We'd rather lose a job to a competitor's lower quote than win one by underselling what a Port Townsend fire loss actually requires — the guarantee only means something if the scope behind it is accurate to begin with.
