Most of our Lester Prairie business comes from referrals, not advertising — the kind of trust that only builds after a company handles someone's worst week correctly.
Every technician who walks into a Lester Prairie job holds an active IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — not a general contractor license stretched to cover something it wasn't meant for.

Meridian Smoke Damage carries full liability and workers' comp coverage, and every Lester Prairie job starts with a signed, written scope before any demolition happens.
We also don't subcontract the technical work out to whoever's available that week — the Lester Prairie crew you meet at inspection is usually the same crew handling mitigation and, in most cases, the reconstruction.

Persistent headaches or coughing after a fire usually means airborne residue is still present.
Lester Prairie, MN policies typically expect documented mitigation within a set window, or the claim can get disputed.
