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 Shawmut-based teams arrive with truck-mount extractors, moisture meters, and drying gear staged and ready to go.
We built our Shawmut branch after hearing the same complaint over and over from Shawmut, ME property owners — the "24/7" number that never actually answers. Every technician on our Shawmut roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Our crew leads carry IICRC water restoration certifications and have logged real hours on Category 1, 2, and 3 losses, so Water Damage Repair in Shawmut isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. We carry full general liability coverage and are licensed to operate throughout Shawmut, ME, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Shawmut, ME warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Ask any Shawmut 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 Shawmut call at a time.
The most expensive Shawmut restoration jobs we run almost never started as a dramatic flood; they started as something small that got put off. 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 Shawmut line and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-day emergency or something we can schedule.
From a single soaked bedroom to a commercial building with three flooded floors, our Shawmut teams are equipped to scale up or down — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Truck-mounted extraction equipment on every Shawmut rig pulls high volumes of standing water fast, so drying starts the same day instead of the next. Every extraction job includes moisture mapping so we know exactly which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
Our drying plans use moisture meters and thermal imaging to target air movers exactly where hidden moisture is trapped, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
For Shawmut homeowners, that means drywall removal at the flood cut line, subfloor assessment, and content pack-out for anything that can be saved, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
Multi-unit and commercial Shawmut properties get their own project manager plus enough drying equipment to cover the real square footage, not a token setup — we know a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants below has to move fast.
When a Shawmut 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.
We apply antimicrobial treatment during every Shawmut drying job specifically to head off mold before it starts, and we'll flag any area that needs deeper remediation.
Every Shawmut estimate is written and explained before work begins — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.
Our Shawmut, ME warehouse keeps drying equipment close, which typically puts a Shawmut tech at your door inside an hour.
Our paperwork is built to match what adjusters expect, and we'll speak with your insurer directly on your behalf.
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.
Tell our Shawmut dispatcher what's happening — we'll ask a few quick questions to send the right equipment on the first trip.
A licensed technician heads to your Shawmut address with extraction and drying equipment already loaded.
Extraction happens immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where the drying equipment needs to go.
We re-check moisture levels daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records or your insurer.
We measure moisture with instruments, not guesswork, and we won't sign off on a Shawmut job until those readings match the dry standard for the materials involved. If a callback shows lingering moisture within 30 days of a completed job, we return and correct it at no additional charge.
We put that guarantee directly on the Shawmut work order, not just in an ad. 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.

Because our equipment is staged inside Shawmut, ME, most Shawmut calls see a technician on-site within 60 to 90 minutes of the initial call.
Upfront, written pricing is standard on every Shawmut job, not an add-on option.
Our Shawmut on-call rotation covers water extraction, drying, and blackwater cleanup any hour of the day or night.
Direct adjuster communication is standard — we send photo and moisture documentation formatted for a Shawmut insurance claim.
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.
Blackwater and sewage response is a core part of what our Shawmut team does, not a job we sub out.
Turn off the water supply if you can reach it safely, keep people and pets out of the flooded area, and don't run electrical devices near standing water.
Commercial response is a regular part of our Shawmut work — restaurants, offices, and multi-unit buildings included.
Typical drying time runs 3-5 days for a Shawmut home, though a job that sat unaddressed longer can take longer to fully dry.
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 Shawmut job with a documented dry-standard guarantee and a 30-day callback policy.
