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. We dispatch Hillsborough units carrying industrial extraction pumps, air movers, and commercial dehumidifiers already loaded on the truck.
Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Hillsborough, CA kept telling us the same story: a national hotline picked up, put them on hold, and then subcontracted the job out to whoever was cheapest and closest. Every technician on our Hillsborough roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Our senior technicians are IICRC-certified and have worked everything from a clean supply-line break to a full sewage backup, so Water Removal in Hillsborough isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. Full liability coverage and Hillsborough, CA licensing back every job we take, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Hillsborough, CA warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Anyone in Hillsborough who has had a supply line fail overnight knows the real cost isn't the leak itself, it's how long the standing water sits before someone with the right equipment arrives. That's the gap Hirex Water Damage was built to close, one Hillsborough call at a time.
Water damage doesn't always look dramatic at first — some of the costliest Hillsborough jobs we've handled began as a small, easy-to-miss problem. Here's what tells us a property needs professional attention rather than a mop and a fan:
If you're nodding along to any of these, get ahead of it now rather than later — our Hillsborough dispatcher will give you an honest read on urgency, not a sales pitch.
Whether it's one bedroom carpet or an entire flooded commercial floor, our Hillsborough crews scale the response to match the loss — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Truck-mounted extraction equipment on every Hillsborough 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 families in Hillsborough, this covers flood-cut drywall removal, subfloor evaluation, and packing out salvageable belongings for cleaning, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
Hillsborough 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.
Category 3 blackwater calls for full PPE, antimicrobial treatment, and disposal of anything porous that touched the contamination — our Hillsborough crews are trained for exactly that protocol.
We apply antimicrobial treatment during every Hillsborough drying job specifically to head off mold before it starts, and we'll flag any area that needs deeper remediation.
Every Hillsborough estimate is written and explained before work begins — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.

Our paperwork is built to match what adjusters expect, and we'll speak with your insurer directly on your behalf.

Our Hillsborough 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.
You'll find that exact commitment printed on your Hillsborough paperwork, not just mentioned over the phone. If a second visit is ever needed, it comes from the same crew that handled the original job whenever scheduling allows, since they already know the property and the readings we started from.
