A cracked supply line or an overflowing appliance doesn't check the clock before it ruins a floor. Hirex Water Damage keeps Flood Damage Cleanup crews and equipment staged inside San Rafael so a technician can be at your door quickly.


We built Hirex Water Damage's San Rafael operation after hearing the same complaint over and over: the "24/7" number that never actually answers when it matters. Every technician you'll meet is a direct Hirex Water Damage employee, not a subcontractor pulled from an app.
Our lead technicians hold IICRC water restoration certification and have worked jobs ranging from a single soaked bedroom to a fully flooded commercial floor, which is why Flood Damage Cleanup in San Rafael is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. We carry full liability coverage and hold active licensing to operate throughout San Rafael, CA.
Because our gear is staged locally rather than shipped in, San Rafael response times run well ahead of a typical national franchise.
Talk to a San Rafael landlord who's lived through a burst supply line at 3am and they'll confirm that response speed, not just skill, determines how much a job ends up costing. That gap between a fast, equipped response and a slow, improvised one is exactly what Hirex Water Damage was built to close.
We also invest in ongoing technician training, since restoration methods and equipment keep evolving and a San Rafael crew running outdated techniques does the property a disservice.

Plenty of the worst jobs we've walked into in San Rafael started as something small that got put off for a few weeks. Here's what tells our team a San Rafael property needs a professional look 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 give you a straight answer on urgency.
We don't run a one-size response in San Rafael — a contained bathroom leak gets a different crew than a flooded restaurant kitchen. Each item on this list corresponds to an actual step in our process, not a generic label.
Truck-mount extraction on every San Rafael rig means high-volume pickup starts the same day, not the next. Moisture mapping follows every extraction so we know which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
Our drying plans rely on moisture meters and thermal imaging to target air movers exactly where hidden San Rafael moisture is trapped, with daily logs so you can watch the numbers improve.
On the residential side in San Rafael, we handle the flood cut, subfloor checks, and content pack-out so the home is ready for rebuild, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
For commercial San Rafael accounts, we assign a lead, run crews outside normal hours to limit downtime, and size equipment to the actual footprint — a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants has to move fast.
When a San Rafael job involves sewage backup, our team suits up fully, applies EPA-registered antimicrobials, and disposes of porous materials that can't be saved.
Every San Rafael drying job includes preventive antimicrobial application aimed at heading off mold before it starts.

Our nearest available San Rafael crew is dispatched immediately with truck-mount gear on board.
We extract immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where San Rafael drying equipment needs to go.
Daily moisture checks continue on every San Rafael job until each material reads dry, and you get a full report at the end.

Every San Rafael job closes based on instrument readings, not a visual check, and we won't call it finished until the numbers say so. If a callback within 30 days shows lingering moisture from the same loss, we return and correct it at no additional charge.
We put the guarantee directly on the work order for every San Rafael job, in writing. If a follow-up visit is ever needed, we send a technician familiar with the original job whenever scheduling allows, so you're not re-explaining the situation to someone new.
