Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Portsmouth crews are already moving. We dispatch Portsmouth units carrying industrial extraction pumps, air movers, and commercial dehumidifiers already loaded on the truck.

Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Portsmouth, RI 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 Portsmouth 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 Water Damage Repair in Portsmouth isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. We carry full general liability coverage and are licensed to operate throughout Portsmouth, RI, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Portsmouth, RI warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Talk to a Portsmouth property manager who's lived through an overnight pipe failure and they'll tell you exactly why a crew that arrives already equipped matters — every extra minute is more water in the framing. That's the gap Hirex Water Damage was built to close, one Portsmouth call at a time.

Water damage doesn't always look dramatic at first — some of the costliest Portsmouth jobs we've handled began as a small, easy-to-miss problem. 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 Portsmouth dispatcher will give you an honest read on urgency, not a sales pitch.
We size the Portsmouth response to the actual damage — a single-room extraction gets a two-person crew, a commercial loss gets the full fleet — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Truck-mounted extraction equipment on every Portsmouth rig pulls high volumes of standing water fast, so drying starts the same day instead of the next. Every extraction job includes moisture mapping so we know exactly which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
We place industrial dehumidifiers and air movers based on actual psychrometric calculations, not a standard equipment count per room, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
On the residential side in Portsmouth, 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.
Portsmouth businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage rather than a single-crew response — we know a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants below has to move fast.
Blackwater losses in Portsmouth get handled under strict Category 3 protocol: containment, PPE, antimicrobial application, and documented disposal of contaminated materials.
We apply antimicrobial treatment during every Portsmouth drying job specifically to head off mold before it starts, and we'll flag any area that needs deeper remediation.

You get a written estimate before any equipment runs, not a mystery total handed to you after the fact.
Local staging inside Portsmouth, RI means Portsmouth response times usually beat the national average by a wide margin.
We photograph and log every step specifically so your claim moves faster and you're not the one arguing with the insurance company.
We don't call a job finished until the moisture meter agrees, and if it doesn't, we return at no additional cost.
A short call with our Portsmouth dispatcher tells us whether this is a one-room job or a multi-crew response before anyone drives out.
A licensed technician heads to your Portsmouth address with extraction and drying equipment already loaded.
Standing water comes out first; drying equipment gets placed only after we've mapped exactly where moisture is hiding.
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 Portsmouth 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 Portsmouth work order we issue. A repeat visit under this guarantee doesn't mean starting over — we pull the original moisture logs and pick up exactly where the last visit left off.
