Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Somerville crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your Somerville address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.
Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Somerville, MA 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 Somerville 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 Mold Remediation in Somerville isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. Full liability coverage and Somerville, MA 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 Somerville, MA warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Anyone in Somerville 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 Somerville call at a time.
Not every leak announces itself with a flooded floor. A lot of the worst damage we see in Somerville 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 you're nodding along to any of these, get ahead of it now rather than later — our Somerville dispatcher will give you an honest read on urgency, not a sales pitch.
From a single soaked bedroom to a commercial building with three flooded floors, our Somerville teams are equipped to scale up or down — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Our Somerville 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.
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.
On the residential side in Somerville, 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.
For commercial Somerville accounts, we assign a project lead, run crews after normal hours to reduce downtime, and bring equipment sized to the actual footprint — 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 Somerville crews are trained for exactly that protocol.
We apply antimicrobial treatment during every Somerville drying job specifically to head off mold before it starts, and we'll flag any area that needs deeper remediation.
Every Somerville estimate is written and explained before work begins — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.
Because our equipment cache sits inside Somerville, MA, most Somerville calls see a technician on-site in under 60 minutes.

Extraction happens immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where the drying equipment needs to go.
Daily moisture checks continue until every affected material reads dry, and you get a complete report at the end.
We measure moisture with instruments, not guesswork, and we won't sign off on a Somerville 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.
That's not a marketing line — it's written into every Somerville work order we issue. 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.
