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. Our Fort Washington-based teams arrive with truck-mount extractors, moisture meters, and drying gear staged and ready to go.
Too many Fort Washington, MD 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 Fort Washington operation differently. Every technician on our Fort Washington roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Our crew leads carry IICRC water restoration certifications and have logged real hours on Category 1, 2, and 3 losses, so Flood Damage Cleanup in Fort Washington isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists.
