A burst supply line, an overflowing tub, or a storm surge under the back door doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our Highland-based teams arrive with truck-mount extractors, moisture meters, and drying gear staged and ready to go.
Too many Highland, IL families have called a big national number only to get bounced through hold music before a random subcontractor shows up hours later, so Hirex Water Damage built its Highland operation differently. Every technician on our Highland roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Each lead tech holds an IICRC Water Restoration Technician certification and has personally handled clean-water, gray-water, and contaminated black-water losses, so Burst Pipe Cleanup in Highland isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. We're fully insured and licensed to work anywhere in Highland, IL, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Our Highland, IL-based equipment cache means drying gear is already close by, not stuck in a truck three states away.
Ask any Highland property manager who has dealt with a burst supply line at 3am — the difference between a crew that shows up ready and one still loading a truck at the shop is measured in gallons of water soaking into your subfloor. That's the gap Hirex Water Damage was built to close, one Highland call at a time.
Not every leak announces itself with a flooded floor. A lot of the worst damage we see in Highland started small and got ignored for weeks. Here's what tells us a property needs professional attention rather than a mop and a fan:
If any of that sounds familiar, don't wait for it to get worse — call our Highland line and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-day emergency or something we can schedule.
We size the Highland response to the actual damage — a single-room extraction gets a two-person crew, a commercial loss gets the full fleet — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
We arrive with submersible pumps and truck-mount extractors that get standing water out of a Highland property before it soaks deeper into the subfloor. Every extraction job includes moisture mapping so we know exactly which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
We place industrial dehumidifiers and air movers based on actual psychrometric calculations, not a standard equipment count per room, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
On the residential side in Highland, we handle the flood-cut, subfloor checks, and content pack-out so your home is ready to rebuild, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
Highland businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage rather than a single-crew response — we know a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants below has to move fast.
When a Highland job involves sewage backup, our team suits up in full PPE, applies EPA-registered antimicrobials, and safely disposes of porous materials that can't be saved.
Every Highland job includes a preventive antimicrobial application, and if we spot conditions that need full remediation we tell you plainly instead of quietly hoping it clears up.
Every Highland estimate is written and explained before work begins — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.
Because our equipment cache sits inside Highland, IL, most Highland calls see a technician on-site in under 60 minutes.
We photograph and log every step specifically so your claim moves faster and you're not the one arguing with the insurance company.
If moisture readings aren't where they should be at the end of the job, we come back and keep drying at no extra charge.
Our Highland team asks a handful of targeted questions so the truck that shows up already has the right gear loaded.
A licensed technician heads to your Highland address with extraction and drying equipment already loaded.
We remove standing water first, then map moisture and position air movers and dehumidifiers based on the readings.
We re-check moisture levels daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records or your insurer.
Our Highland technicians use moisture meters at the start and the end of every job, and the final number has to hit the dry standard before we leave. If a callback shows lingering moisture within 30 days of a completed job, we return and correct it at no additional charge.
That's not a marketing line — it's written into every Highland work order we issue. A repeat visit under this guarantee doesn't mean starting over — we pull the original moisture logs and pick up exactly where the last visit left off.

Most Highland dispatches are on-site within 60-90 minutes since our crews and equipment are based in-state, not flown or trucked in from elsewhere.
We always quote first. You'll see a written estimate for the Highland job before any drying equipment starts running.
Our Highland on-call rotation covers water extraction, drying, and blackwater cleanup any hour of the day or night.
Yes, we document everything with photos and moisture readings and can communicate directly with your adjuster.
We take moisture meter readings on affected materials and compare them against the dry standard for that material type — a visual check alone isn't enough.
Yes, our Highland crews are trained and equipped for Category 3 blackwater response, including PPE and antimicrobial treatment.
If it's safe, shut off the water source, move electronics and valuables away from the affected area, and avoid the space if standing water is near outlets.
Commercial response is a regular part of our Highland work — restaurants, offices, and multi-unit buildings included.
Most Highland residential jobs dry out in 3 to 5 days depending on how much material got wet and how long it sat before extraction.
Not if it's addressed quickly — mold generally needs 24-48 hours of sustained moisture, which is exactly why fast extraction matters.
We stand behind every Highland job with a documented dry-standard guarantee and a 30-day callback policy.
