A cracked supply line or an overflowing appliance doesn't check the clock before it ruins a floor. Hirex Water Damage keeps Structural Drying crews and equipment staged inside Old Lyme so a technician can be at your door quickly.
We built Hirex Water Damage's Old Lyme 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.
Certification isn't just a logo on our site — our Old Lyme crew leads have logged real hours on clean, gray, and contaminated water losses, which is why Structural Drying in Old Lyme is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. Full insurance and Old Lyme, CT licensing back every job we take in Old Lyme.
Because our gear is staged locally rather than shipped in, Old Lyme response times run well ahead of a typical national franchise.
Talk to a Old Lyme 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.
Staying current on restoration techniques matters as much in Old Lyme as the equipment itself, which is why training isn't a one-time certification and done.
Not every water problem looks dramatic — some of the costliest Old Lyme repairs began as a barely-noticeable issue. Here's what tells our team a Old Lyme 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 Old Lyme line and we'll give you a straight answer on urgency.
We don't run a one-size response in Old Lyme — a contained bathroom leak gets a different crew than a flooded restaurant kitchen. Every service below reflects a specific piece of equipment or protocol, not just a marketing category.
Our Old Lyme units carry truck-mount extraction pumps that pull standing water out fast, cutting exposure time from days to hours. Moisture mapping follows every extraction so we know which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
Once extraction wraps, commercial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers go to work based on psychrometric readings, not a flat per-room count, with daily logs so you can watch the numbers improve.
For Old Lyme homeowners, that means flood-cut drywall removal, subfloor assessment, and content pack-out for anything salvageable, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
Multi-unit and commercial properties in Old Lyme get their own project manager plus enough drying equipment for the real square footage, not a token setup — a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants has to move fast.
Blackwater losses in Old Lyme get handled under strict Category 3 protocol from containment through documented disposal.
Every Old Lyme drying job includes preventive antimicrobial application aimed at heading off mold before it starts.
You'll see a written estimate before any equipment runs on your Old Lyme property, not a mystery total after the fact.
Local staging inside Old Lyme typically puts a tech at your door quickly, not after a long drive across the region.
We document every Old Lyme job with photos and moisture logs and can speak directly with your adjuster.
Final moisture readings have to hit dry-standard before we consider any Old Lyme job done, and getting there again is on us.
A short call tells us whether your Old Lyme job needs one technician or a full crew before anyone drives out.
Our nearest available Old Lyme crew is dispatched immediately with truck-mount gear on board.
We extract immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where Old Lyme drying equipment needs to go.
We don't close the Old Lyme file until the numbers confirm the structure is dry, with full photo and moisture documentation in hand.
Our Old Lyme technicians take moisture readings at the start and end of every job, and the final number has to hit dry standard before we leave. If a callback within 30 days shows lingering moisture from the same loss, we return and correct it at no additional charge.
You'll find that exact guarantee printed on your Old Lyme paperwork, not only spoken over the phone. 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.
A guarantee only means something if it's backed by documented numbers, which is why every Old Lyme job closes with instrument readings attached.
