Hirex Water Damage didn't start as a franchise looking for a new zip code to expand into — it started because South San Francisco 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.
