Fire, soot, and the water used to put it out don't pause for morning. Meridian Smoke Damage keeps trucks positioned near Negaunee so a technician can be walking your property within the hour, not scheduling you in for next week.
Call +1-866-484-1409We opened in the Negaunee 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.
