Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our San Rafael crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your San Rafael address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.
Too many San Rafael, CA families have called a big national number only to get bounced through hold music before a random subcontractor shows up hours later, so Hirex Water Damage built its San Rafael operation differently. Every technician on our San Rafael 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 Structural Drying in San Rafael 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 San Rafael, CA, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Our San Rafael, CA-based equipment cache means drying gear is already close by, not stuck in a truck three states away.
Talk to a San Rafael property manager who's lived through an overnight pipe failure and they'll tell you exactly why a crew that arrives already equipped matters — every extra minute is more water in the framing. That's the gap Hirex Water Damage was built to close, one San Rafael call at a time.
Not every leak announces itself with a flooded floor. A lot of the worst damage we see in San Rafael started small and got ignored for weeks. 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 San Rafael 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 San Rafael teams are equipped to scale up or down — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
We arrive with submersible pumps and truck-mount extractors that get standing water out of a San Rafael property before it soaks deeper into the subfloor. Every extraction job includes moisture mapping so we know exactly which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
Once water is out, we bring in commercial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers, positioned using psychrometric readings rather than guesswork, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
For families in San Rafael, 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.
San Rafael 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 San Rafael crews are trained for exactly that protocol.
Every San Rafael job includes a preventive antimicrobial application, and if we spot conditions that need full remediation we tell you plainly instead of quietly hoping it clears up.
Every San Rafael estimate is written and explained before work begins — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.
Our San Rafael, CA warehouse keeps drying equipment close, which typically puts a San Rafael tech at your door inside an hour.
We photograph and log every step specifically so your claim moves faster and you're not the one arguing with the insurance company.
We don't call a job finished until the moisture meter agrees, and if it doesn't, we return at no additional cost.
A short call with our San Rafael dispatcher tells us whether this is a one-room job or a multi-crew response before anyone drives out.
Our nearest available San Rafael crew is dispatched immediately with truck-mount extraction gear on board.
Standing water comes out first; drying equipment gets placed only after we've mapped exactly where moisture is hiding.
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 San Rafael 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 San Rafael work order, not just in an ad. 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.
