Who We Are

Why Privateer Property Owners Keep Our Number Saved

Every technician on our Privateer roster holds current IICRC fire and smoke restoration certification — the same credential adjusters look for when reviewing a claim file.

Working the 29154 corridor day after day gives our team a working knowledge of Privateer code requirements that out-of-town crews simply don't have.

We carry full liability coverage and workers' compensation, and we put every Privateer scope of work in writing before demolition starts — including what's included, what's excluded, and the expected timeline.

Licensed & Insured

State-licensed for fire mitigation and reconstruction work.

Live Dispatch

A real technician answers the Privateer line, any hour.

III

IICRC Trained

Fire and smoke restoration credentials, not general labor.

Adjuster-Ready Files

Documentation built to match what Privateer, SC carriers expect.

We also keep a running photo log for every Privateer job — before, during, and after — so there's never a dispute over what condition the property was in at each stage.

Don't Wait On These

What Gets Worse By The Hour After A Privateer Fire

Smoke Odor That Won't Fade

An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.

Soot Around Vents

Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.

Swelling Floors Or Cabinets

Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.

Pitting On Metal Hardware

Soot residue is acidic enough to corrode faucets, hinges, and electronics within about two days if left untreated.

Ongoing Respiratory Irritation

Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.

A Claim Filing Deadline

Privateer, SC 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.

Core Services

What Privateer Customers Actually Get With Fire Damage Removal

Emergency Mitigation

First priority is always stopping additional loss: boarding openings, tarping the roof, and pulling standing water.

Residential Soot & Smoke Cleanup

Thermal fogging paired with HEPA filtration clears residue that surface cleaning alone would leave behind.

Commercial Restoration

Phased scopes that let Privateer businesses reopen unaffected sections while the rest of the rebuild continues.

Structural Rebuild

We rebuild to Privateer, SC code, with inspections scheduled as part of the project timeline, not an afterthought.

Odor Elimination

Hydroxyl generators and thermal fogging break down odor at the source instead of masking it with fragrance.

Contents & Pack-Out

Inventoried pack-out with ultrasonic cleaning for salvageable belongings while the Privateer property is under repair.

Our Guarantee

What Meridian Smoke Damage Promises Every Privateer Customer

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.

No Surprise Line Items

Change orders require your written sign-off — nothing gets added to the bill without it.

One-Year Workmanship

Reconstruction work is covered against defects for a full year after completion.

Single Point Of Contact

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 Privateer inspection right rather than rushing to a number.
