We built Meridian Smoke Damage around the The Hills 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 The Hills roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.
Local experience in 78738 means our estimators aren't guessing — they've seen how The Hills's building department handles fire-damage permits dozens of times before.
We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every The Hills 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.
We coordinate directly with your adjuster on your behalf.
Every The Hills 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.
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.
Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.
The Hills, TX insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
None of these six signs get better with time. The The Hills 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.
Thermal fogging paired with HEPA filtration clears residue that surface cleaning alone would leave behind.
A dedicated project manager keeps commercial The Hills jobs on a schedule instead of an open-ended timeline.
Reconstruction crews handle everything from studs to trim, coordinated directly with The Hills permitting.
Hydroxyl generators and thermal fogging break down odor at the source instead of masking it with fragrance.
Contents get sorted early so you're not paying to store items that were never going to survive the damage.
+1-866-484-1409 connects you to a live dispatcher, not a script.
Full scope gets assessed and photographed for your insurance file.
Board-up, extraction, and soot removal proceed against the written scope you approved.
Final walkthrough happens before we call the The Hills job complete.
No verbal ballpark that turns into a different invoice later.
Same-day arrival is realistic because we're already positioned near The Hills.
Paperwork built to match what The Hills, TX carriers actually ask for.
If part of the scope isn't right, we return and fix it at no extra cost.

Every The Hills 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 The Hills inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
