We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the Cleary 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 Cleary roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.
Working the 39073 corridor day after day gives our team a working knowledge of Cleary code requirements that out-of-town crews simply don't have.
We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Cleary scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.
State-licensed for fire mitigation and reconstruction work.
No voicemail loop — someone picks up and dispatches immediately.
Fire and smoke restoration credentials, not general labor.
Documentation built to match what Cleary, MS carriers expect.
Every Cleary 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.
Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.
Cabinetry and flooring can swell within 24 hours once firefighting water sits without proper extraction.
Soot residue is acidic enough to corrode faucets, hinges, and electronics within about two days if left untreated.
Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.
Cleary, MS 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.
Board-up, tarping, and extraction dispatched the same day to stop a Cleary loss from spreading further.
We treat drywall, contents, and HVAC separately rather than running one blanket chemical wash across everything.
Phased scopes that let Cleary businesses reopen unaffected sections while the rest of the rebuild continues.
We rebuild to Cleary, MS 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.
We photograph and log every item before pack-out, then clean or store it depending on what's actually salvageable.
A real person answers and gets the crew moving right away.
Full scope gets assessed and photographed for your insurance file.
Work follows the plan you signed off on, with daily photo updates.
Nothing gets closed out until you've confirmed the work in person.
A scope and number in writing before any work starts on your Cleary property.
Same-day arrival is realistic because we're already positioned near Cleary.
We talk to your adjuster directly and send documentation they can act on.
Our guarantee is signed, not just implied in a sales conversation.

Every Cleary job carries the same written guarantee regardless of size — if our work doesn't match the documented scope, fixing it is on us.
The number we quote after inspection is the number on the final invoice, barring written change orders you approve.
Framing, drywall, and finish work carry a one-year guarantee.
You won't be bounced between five different subcontractors on this job.
A guarantee is only as good as the scope it's attached to, which is why we spend extra time getting the initial Cleary inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
A freezer fire in our garage started around 2am, and the crew had the side door boarded up before the fire department even wrapped up their report. — Homeowner, Cleary
We'd tried two other cleaning companies on the smoke smell in our rental with no luck. Meridian Smoke Damage's fogging treatment actually solved it. — Landlord, Cleary
They dealt with our adjuster directly so we didn't have to play messenger between two companies. Reconstruction took about five weeks and the trim work came out better than the original. — Homeowner, Cleary, MS
Our Cleary bakery had a fire in the back kitchen on a Sunday morning. Meridian Smoke Damage phased the rebuild so the front counter reopened within ten days. — Business Owner, Cleary
What stood out most was that the invoice matched the original written scope down to the dollar, with nothing added along the way. — Homeowner, Cleary, MS
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, Cleary
