We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the Five Points 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 +1-866-484-1409Every technician on our Five Points roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.

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.
Five Points, NC 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 Five Points 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.
First priority is always stopping additional loss: boarding openings, tarping the roof, and pulling standing water.
We treat drywall, contents, and HVAC separately rather than running one blanket chemical wash across everything.
Phased scopes that let Five Points businesses reopen unaffected sections while the rest of the rebuild continues.
