Troy, Mich.-based InStar Services Group (InStar), a national disaster restoration and reconstruction firm with 22 offices throughout the country, announced today the opening of two new locations. The Seattle office is located at 605 W. Main Street in Centralia, Wash., and the Southern California office is located at 420 Apollo Street, Unit C in Brea, Calif. InStar President and CEO Mark W. Davis made the announcement.
The Seattle office space, which opened in late August, houses water extraction and drying equipment, and the employees working out of this office specialize in commercial construction. The Southern California office space, which opened in September, specializes in commercial disaster recovery covering Southern California, Arizona and Nevada.
"This West Coast expansion has filled a market void for InStar," said Davis. "Seattle and Southern California are plagued with wildfires, flooding, earthquakes and landslides. InStar will now be strategically located to provide disaster restoration services to business owners and homeowners on the West Coast at a moments notice."
Owned by private equity firm BlackEagle Partners, InStar's financial strength, geographic footprint, experience, vendor relationships, manpower and resources will serve as a solid backing for the West Coast expansion, which is part of InStar's aggressive growth plan. With more than 300 employees strategically located throughout the country, the company plans to open four to five new locations per year, including InStar Latin America.
