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 Cornish units carrying industrial extraction pumps, air movers, and commercial dehumidifiers already loaded on the truck.

Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Cornish, ME 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 Cornish roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Each lead tech holds an IICRC Water Restoration Technician certification and has personally handled clean-water, gray-water, and contaminated black-water losses, so Basement Flooding in Cornish isn't a side service we tacked on β it's the reason the company exists. Full liability coverage and Cornish, ME 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 Cornish, ME warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Ask any Cornish property manager who has dealt with a burst supply line at 3am β 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 Cornish call at a time.

Water damage doesn't always look dramatic at first β some of the costliest Cornish 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:
Recognizing one of these signs early is the difference between a contained repair and a gutted room, so call our Cornish team and get a straight answer on how urgent it is.
From a single soaked bedroom to a commercial building with three flooded floors, our Cornish teams are equipped to scale up or down β nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Our Cornish units run truck-mount extraction pumps that pull thousands of gallons per hour, cutting standing-water time from days to hours. 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.
On the residential side in Cornish, we handle the flood-cut, subfloor checks, and content pack-out so your home is ready to rebuild, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
Cornish businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage rather than a single-crew response β 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 β our Cornish crews are trained for exactly that protocol.
We apply antimicrobial treatment during every Cornish drying job specifically to head off mold before it starts, and we'll flag any area that needs deeper remediation.

Every Cornish estimate is written and explained before work begins β no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.

Daily moisture checks continue until every affected material reads dry, and you get a complete report at the end.

Our Cornish 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.
That's not a marketing line β it's written into every Cornish work order we issue. We try to send the original technician back for any follow-up so you're not re-explaining the job to someone new.
