Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our San Mateo crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your San Mateo address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.
Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in San Mateo, CA 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 San Mateo 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 Flood Damage Cleanup in San Mateo isn't a side service we tacked on β it's the reason the company exists. We're fully insured and licensed to work anywhere in San Mateo, CA, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Our San Mateo, CA-based equipment cache means drying gear is already close by, not stuck in a truck three states away.
Talk to a San Mateo property manager who's lived through an overnight pipe failure and they'll tell you exactly why a crew that arrives already equipped matters β every extra minute is more water in the framing. That's the gap Hirex Water Damage was built to close, one San Mateo call at a time.
Water damage doesn't always look dramatic at first β some of the costliest San Mateo 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 any of that sounds familiar, don't wait for it to get worse β call our San Mateo line and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-day emergency or something we can schedule.
We size the San Mateo response to the actual damage β a single-room extraction gets a two-person crew, a commercial loss gets the full fleet β nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Truck-mounted extraction equipment on every San Mateo 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.
For families in San Mateo, this covers flood-cut drywall removal, subfloor evaluation, and packing out salvageable belongings for cleaning, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
San Mateo businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage rather than a single-crew response β we know a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants below has to move fast.
Blackwater losses in San Mateo get handled under strict Category 3 protocol: containment, PPE, antimicrobial application, and documented disposal of contaminated materials.
Every San Mateo job includes a preventive antimicrobial application, and if we spot conditions that need full remediation we tell you plainly instead of quietly hoping it clears up.
We quote the job before equipment gets plugged in, so there's no surprise line item buried in the final invoice.

Our San Mateo team asks a handful of targeted questions so the truck that shows up already has the right gear loaded.
Our nearest available San Mateo crew is dispatched immediately with truck-mount extraction gear on board.
Extraction happens immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where the drying equipment needs to go.
We don't close the file until the numbers confirm the structure is dry, and you leave with full photo and moisture documentation.
Every San Mateo job gets closed based on instrument readings, not a visual check, and we won't call it finished until the numbers say it's finished. 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 β it's written into every San Mateo work order we issue. We try to send the original technician back for any follow-up so you're not re-explaining the job to someone new.
