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 West Hollywood technicians show up, do the assessment, and stay on the job through reconstruction.
Because our crews work 90069 90046 90048 regularly, they already understand which West Hollywood 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 West Hollywood scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.

If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.
