A cracked supply line or an overflowing appliance doesn't check the clock before it ruins a floor. Hirex Water Damage keeps Structural Drying crews and equipment staged inside Custar so a technician can be at your door quickly.


Hirex Water Damage didn't start as a franchise looking for a new zip code to expand into — it started because Custar homeowners kept describing the same frustrating experience: a national hotline, a long hold, and a subcontractor nobody vetted. Every technician you'll meet is a direct Hirex Water Damage employee, not a subcontractor pulled from an app.
Our lead technicians hold IICRC water restoration certification and have worked jobs ranging from a single soaked bedroom to a fully flooded commercial floor, which is why Structural Drying in Custar is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. We carry full liability coverage and hold active licensing to operate throughout Custar, OH.
Because our gear is staged locally rather than shipped in, Custar response times run well ahead of a typical national franchise.
Ask any Custar property manager who's dealt with an overnight pipe failure and they'll tell you the real cost isn't the leak itself — it's how long standing water sits before someone with the right equipment shows up. That gap between a fast, equipped response and a slow, improvised one is exactly what Hirex Water Damage was built to close.
Our Custar technicians go through regular continuing education, because a method that was standard five years ago may not be the best option today.

Plenty of the worst jobs we've walked into in Custar started as something small that got put off for a few weeks. Here's what tells our team a Custar property needs a professional look rather than a mop and a fan:
Recognizing one of these early is the difference between a contained repair and a gutted room, so reach out to our Custar team before it spreads.
We don't run a one-size response in Custar — a contained bathroom leak gets a different crew than a flooded restaurant kitchen. We list these as distinct services because each genuinely requires different tools and training, not interchangeable labor.
Truck-mount extraction on every Custar rig means high-volume pickup starts the same day, not the next. Moisture mapping follows every extraction so we know which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
Once extraction wraps, commercial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers go to work based on psychrometric readings, not a flat per-room count, with daily logs so you can watch the numbers improve.
On the residential side in Custar, we handle the flood cut, subfloor checks, and content pack-out so the home is ready for rebuild, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
Custar businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage — a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants has to move fast.
Category 3 blackwater calls for full PPE, antimicrobial treatment, and disposal of anything porous that touched the contamination — our Custar crews are trained for that exact protocol.
On top of standard drying, our Custar crews apply antimicrobial treatment and will tell you plainly if a section needs specialist attention.
Every Custar estimate is written and explained up front — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.
Local staging inside Custar typically puts a tech at your door quickly, not after a long drive across the region.
We document every Custar job with photos and moisture logs and can speak directly with your adjuster.
We don't call a Custar job finished until the meter agrees, and if it doesn't, we return at no additional cost.
Tell our Custar dispatcher what's happening — a few quick questions get the right equipment on the first trip.
A licensed technician heads to your Custar address with extraction and drying equipment already loaded.
Extraction happens right away, with drying equipment placed only after moisture mapping is complete.
Daily moisture checks continue on every Custar job until each material reads dry, and you get a full report at the end.

Our Custar technicians take moisture readings at the start and end of every job, and the final number has to hit dry standard before we leave. If a callback within 30 days shows lingering moisture from the same loss, we return and correct it at no additional charge.
We put the guarantee directly on the work order for every Custar job, in writing. We try to return the same crew for any callback so the person handling it already knows the property and the original readings.
A guarantee only means something if it's backed by documented numbers, which is why every Custar job closes with instrument readings attached.

"I didn't touch the insurance paperwork once — they sent it straight to our adjuster." — Marcus D.
"The daily drying logs actually made sense — I could watch the moisture numbers drop each day until it was done." — Priya K.
"They worked overnight so our restaurant wasn't closed any longer than necessary." — Aaron F.
"Sewage backup is not a fun call to make, but the crew was calm and explained the whole containment process clearly." — Lena V.

Because equipment is staged inside Custar, most calls see a technician on-site within 60 to 90 minutes.
We always quote first; you'll see a written estimate for the Custar job before drying equipment starts running.
Around-the-clock Custar coverage includes extraction, drying, and Category 3 sewage response — nothing on that list waits for morning.
Yes, we document everything with photos and moisture readings and can speak directly with your adjuster.
Dryness is confirmed with instrument readings against a documented standard, not by feel.
We regularly handle sewage backups in Custar using full containment and EPA-registered products.
If it's safe, shut off the water source, move valuables away from the affected area, and avoid standing water near outlets.
We scale crews and equipment for commercial Custar accounts and assign a dedicated project lead beyond a single unit.
Drying time varies by material and how fast extraction started, but 3-5 days is typical for most Custar jobs.
Mold isn't inevitable if extraction and drying start fast, which is why we treat speed as core to the Custar service.
Our Custar guarantee covers a 30-day callback window tied to the original loss.
See the zip codes and nearby cities listed below — our Custar crews cover that full radius.
You don't have to stay on-site the entire time equipment is running, though we do need periodic access for moisture checks.
Beyond Custar itself, coverage extends across nearby zip codes, with additional Custar, OH crews available for large-scale or commercial losses. If your address falls inside or near Custar, a Hirex Water Damage crew can typically respond the same day.
Knowing Custar's neighborhoods matters more than it might seem — older sections of town often have different plumbing and foundation quirks than newer developments, and our crews adjust accordingly.
