A cracked supply line or an overflowing appliance doesn't check the clock before it ruins a floor. We built our Olema dispatch around speed, because every extra hour of standing water costs more to repair.


Plenty of Olema families have dialed a big national number and waited through hold music before a random contractor showed up hours later, and Hirex Water Damage exists specifically to fix that pattern. 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 Olema crew leads have logged real hours on clean, gray, and contaminated water losses, which is why Water Damage Repair in Olema is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. We carry full liability coverage and hold active licensing to operate throughout Olema, CA.
Equipment lives in a Olema-area warehouse rather than being trucked in from three counties over, which shortens arrival time considerably.
Ask any Olema property manager who's dealt with an overnight pipe failure and they'll tell you the real cost isn't the leak itself — it's how long standing water sits before someone with the right equipment shows up. 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 Olema as the equipment itself, which is why training isn't a one-time certification and done.

The Olema jobs that end up gutting a room almost always started quiet, not with a flood. Here's what tells our team a Olema property needs a professional look rather than a mop and a fan:
Recognizing one of these early is the difference between a contained repair and a gutted room, so reach out to our Olema team before it spreads.
Whether it's a small residential leak or a large commercial loss, our Olema teams size the crew and equipment to fit. We list these as distinct services because each genuinely requires different tools and training, not interchangeable labor.
Our Olema 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 Olema 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.
Olema businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage — a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants has to move fast.
Category 3 blackwater calls for full PPE, antimicrobial treatment, and disposal of anything porous that touched the contamination — our Olema crews are trained for that exact protocol.
On top of standard drying, our Olema crews apply antimicrobial treatment and will tell you plainly if a section needs specialist attention.
We quote every Olema job before equipment gets plugged in, so there's no surprise charge buried in the final invoice.
Because equipment is staged inside Olema, most calls see a technician on-site in under an hour.
We document every Olema 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 Olema job done, and getting there again is on us.
Tell our Olema dispatcher what's happening — a few quick questions get the right equipment on the first trip.
The closest available Olema technician is routed to you with equipment staged and ready.
We extract immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where Olema drying equipment needs to go.
We re-check moisture daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records.

Every Olema job closes based on instrument readings, not a visual check, and we won't call it finished until the numbers say so. 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 Olema paperwork, not only spoken over the phone. We try to return the same crew for any callback so the person handling it already knows the property and the original readings.
We built this guarantee because Olema property owners deserve more than a verbal assurance that a job is done — they deserve proof.

Yes, we regularly respond to commercial and multi-unit losses in Olema, including retail, restaurants, and offices.

We cover Olema and the surrounding zip codes listed below, plus nearby communities throughout Olema, CA.
Not necessarily — many Olema customers arrange access for our daily check-ins while they're at work, and we coordinate scheduling around that.
Beyond Olema itself, coverage extends across nearby zip codes, with additional Olema, CA crews available for large-scale or commercial losses. If your address falls inside or near Olema, a Hirex Water Damage crew can typically respond the same day.
Local familiarity helps, since Olema's building stock varies enough by neighborhood that a one-size approach to diagnostics doesn't always fit.
