We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the Sonoma 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 Sonoma technicians show up, do the assessment, and stay on the job through reconstruction.
Working the 95476 corridor day after day gives our team a working knowledge of Sonoma code requirements that out-of-town crews simply don't have.
Homeowners, landlords, and Sonoma, CA adjusters trust our paperwork because it's consistent: photo logs, moisture readings, and a written scope on every single Sonoma job.
Full coverage on every job we run in Sonoma, CA.
A real technician answers the Sonoma line, any hour.
Certified technicians who've handled structural fire losses before.
We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.
Every Sonoma 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.
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.
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.
Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons Sonoma, CA fire claims get partially denied.
None of these six signs get better with time. The Sonoma 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.
We treat drywall, contents, and HVAC separately rather than running one blanket chemical wash across everything.
A dedicated project manager keeps commercial Sonoma jobs on a schedule instead of an open-ended timeline.
We rebuild to Sonoma, CA code, with inspections scheduled as part of the project timeline, not an afterthought.
We treat smoke odor as a chemical problem, not a scent problem — hydroxyl and ozone equipment gets used accordingly.
Inventoried pack-out with ultrasonic cleaning for salvageable belongings while the Sonoma property is under repair.
A real person answers and gets the crew moving right away.
Full scope gets assessed and photographed for your insurance file.
Board-up, extraction, and soot removal proceed against the written scope you approved.
Nothing gets closed out until you've confirmed the work in person.
No verbal ballpark that turns into a different invoice later.
Trucks staged near 95476 mean faster arrival than a crew driving in from another city.
We talk to your adjuster directly and send documentation they can act on.
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.
Reconstruction work is covered against defects for a full year after completion.
One coordinator manages your Sonoma 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 Sonoma inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
Our garage caught fire from an old freezer around 2am, and someone from Meridian Smoke Damage was already boarding up the side door before the fire department finished their report. — Homeowner, Sonoma
The smoke smell in our Sonoma rental had survived two other cleaning attempts before we called Meridian Smoke Damage. Their fogging treatment finally got rid of it for good. — Landlord, Sonoma
Not having to relay messages between the adjuster and the contractor made the whole process easier. Reconstruction wrapped in about five weeks. — Homeowner, Sonoma, CA
After a kitchen fire at our bakery, they phased the work so the front counter reopened in about ten days while the kitchen was still under repair. — Business Owner, Sonoma
What stood out most was that the invoice matched the original written scope down to the dollar, with nothing added along the way. — Homeowner, Sonoma, CA
We never had an actual fire, just smoke migration from a neighboring unit, but the crew still fully treated our space and eliminated the odor. — Tenant, Sonoma

Job size doesn't matter — the same process applies whether it's one room or the whole structure.
