A cracked supply line or an overflowing appliance doesn't check the clock before it ruins a floor. Our Staples-based teams roll out with extraction and drying gear already loaded, not scrambling to gather it after the call.
Hirex Water Damage didn't start as a franchise looking for a new zip code to expand into — it started because Staples 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.
Certification isn't just a logo on our site — our Staples crew leads have logged real hours on clean, gray, and contaminated water losses, which is why Emergency Water Damage in Staples is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. You're protected from the moment our truck reaches your Staples address, thanks to full coverage and proper Staples, MN licensing.
Because our gear is staged locally rather than shipped in, Staples response times run well ahead of a typical national franchise.
Ask any Staples 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.
Staying current on restoration techniques matters as much in Staples as the equipment itself, which is why training isn't a one-time certification and done.
Not every water problem looks dramatic — some of the costliest Staples repairs began as a barely-noticeable issue. Here's what tells our team a Staples property needs a professional look rather than a mop and a fan:
If you're nodding along, get ahead of it now — our Staples dispatcher will tell you honestly whether it's urgent or something we can schedule.
Whether it's a small residential leak or a large commercial loss, our Staples teams size the crew and equipment to fit. Each item on this list corresponds to an actual step in our process, not a generic label.
We arrive with submersible pumps and truck-mount extractors built to clear a flooded Staples room before water soaks deeper into the subfloor. 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.
For Staples families, our scope covers flood-cut work, subfloor evaluation, and packing out belongings that can be cleaned and restored, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
Staples 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 Staples crews are trained for that exact protocol.
On top of standard drying, our Staples crews apply antimicrobial treatment and will tell you plainly if a section needs specialist attention.
We quote every Staples job before equipment gets plugged in, so there's no surprise charge buried in the final invoice.
Local staging inside Staples typically puts a tech at your door quickly, not after a long drive across the region.
We photograph and log every step so your Staples claim moves faster and you're not arguing with an insurer alone.
If moisture readings aren't where they should be at the end of a Staples job, we come back and keep drying at no extra charge.
A short call tells us whether your Staples job needs one technician or a full crew before anyone drives out.
A licensed technician heads to your Staples address with extraction and drying equipment already loaded.
We extract immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where Staples drying equipment needs to go.
We re-check moisture daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records.
Our Staples 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 Staples job, in writing. A repeat visit under this guarantee means picking up exactly where the last one left off, not starting from scratch.
A guarantee only means something if it's backed by documented numbers, which is why every Staples job closes with instrument readings attached.

Commercial response is a regular part of our Staples work — restaurants and multi-unit buildings included.
Most Staples residential jobs dry out in 3 to 5 days depending on how much material got wet.
Not if it's addressed quickly — mold generally needs 24-48 hours of sustained moisture to establish.
