Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Fort Washington, MD 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 Fort Washington 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 Basement Flooding in Fort Washington isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists.
