Whether it's a slow drip that finally gave out or a sudden flood at midnight, Carlton residents call one number and get a real answer. We built our Carlton dispatch around speed, because every extra hour of standing water costs more to repair.


Hirex Water Damage didn't start as a franchise looking for a new zip code to expand into — it started because Carlton 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 Carlton crew leads have logged real hours on clean, gray, and contaminated water losses, which is why Structural Drying in Carlton is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. Full insurance and Carlton, MN licensing back every job we take in Carlton.
Because our gear is staged locally rather than shipped in, Carlton response times run well ahead of a typical national franchise.
Ask any Carlton 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 Carlton as the equipment itself, which is why training isn't a one-time certification and done.

The Carlton jobs that end up gutting a room almost always started quiet, not with a flood. Here's what tells our team a Carlton property needs a professional look rather than a mop and a fan:
If you're nodding along, get ahead of it now — our Carlton dispatcher will tell you honestly whether it's urgent or something we can schedule.
From a single flooded closet to a three-story commercial building, our Carlton crews scale the response to match the actual damage. We list these as distinct services because each genuinely requires different tools and training, not interchangeable labor.
Truck-mount extraction on every Carlton 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.
For Carlton homeowners, that means flood-cut drywall removal, subfloor assessment, and content pack-out for anything salvageable, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
Multi-unit and commercial properties in Carlton get their own project manager plus enough drying equipment for the real square footage, not a token setup — 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 Carlton crews are trained for that exact protocol.
On top of standard drying, our Carlton crews apply antimicrobial treatment and will tell you plainly if a section needs specialist attention.
You'll see a written estimate before any equipment runs on your Carlton property, not a mystery total after the fact.
Local staging inside Carlton typically puts a tech at your door quickly, not after a long drive across the region.
We document every Carlton job with photos and moisture logs and can speak directly with your adjuster.

Our Carlton team asks just enough to send the right-sized crew, not a generic single technician every time.
The closest available Carlton technician is routed to you with equipment staged and ready.
We extract immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where Carlton drying equipment needs to go.
We re-check moisture daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records.

Our Carlton 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.
You'll find that exact guarantee printed on your Carlton paperwork, not only spoken over the phone. A repeat visit under this guarantee means picking up exactly where the last one left off, not starting from scratch.
Trust matters, but in restoration work, documented moisture readings matter more, and that's what our Carlton guarantee is built on.
