We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the Arabi 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 Arabi technicians show up, do the assessment, and stay on the job through reconstruction.
Local experience in 70032 means our estimators aren't guessing — they've seen how Arabi's building department handles fire-damage permits dozens of times before.
Meridian Smoke Damage is bonded and insured to operate in Arabi, LA, and our Arabi jobs always start with a signed, itemized scope rather than a verbal ballpark.
State-licensed for fire mitigation and reconstruction work.
A real technician answers the Arabi line, any hour.
Certified technicians who've handled structural fire losses before.
Documentation built to match what Arabi, LA carriers expect.
Every Arabi 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.

An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.
Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.
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.
Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
Arabi, LA insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
Every one of these problems compounds the longer they sit untreated — soot turns more corrosive, odor works deeper into materials, and insurance documentation gets harder to establish after the fact.
Same-day securing of the structure — board-up, tarping, water removal — before the damage compounds.
Thermal fogging paired with HEPA filtration clears residue that surface cleaning alone would leave behind.
A dedicated project manager keeps commercial Arabi jobs on a schedule instead of an open-ended timeline.
Reconstruction crews handle everything from studs to trim, coordinated directly with Arabi permitting.

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