Water damage in Matthews rarely waits for a convenient hour, and neither does our dispatch line. We built our Matthews dispatch around speed, because every extra hour of standing water costs more to repair.
Plenty of Matthews 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.
Our lead technicians hold IICRC water restoration certification and have worked jobs ranging from a single soaked bedroom to a fully flooded commercial floor, which is why Flood Damage Cleanup in Matthews is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. Full insurance and Matthews, NC licensing back every job we take in Matthews.
Equipment lives in a Matthews-area warehouse rather than being trucked in from three counties over, which shortens arrival time considerably.
Talk to a Matthews 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.
Our Matthews technicians go through regular continuing education, because a method that was standard five years ago may not be the best option today.
Plenty of the worst jobs we've walked into in Matthews started as something small that got put off for a few weeks. Here's what tells our team a Matthews 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 Matthews line and we'll give you a straight answer on urgency.
Whether it's a small residential leak or a large commercial loss, our Matthews teams size the crew and equipment to fit. Every service below reflects a specific piece of equipment or protocol, not just a marketing category.
Our Matthews 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 Matthews families, our scope covers flood-cut work, subfloor evaluation, and packing out belongings that can be cleaned and restored, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
Multi-unit and commercial properties in Matthews 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.
Category 3 blackwater calls for full PPE, antimicrobial treatment, and disposal of anything porous that touched the contamination — our Matthews crews are trained for that exact protocol.
We treat affected materials during every Matthews job specifically to lower mold risk, and flag anything that needs deeper remediation.
Every Matthews estimate is written and explained up front — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.

Our Matthews team asks just enough to send the right-sized crew, not a generic single technician every time.
A licensed technician heads to your Matthews address with extraction and drying equipment already loaded.
We extract immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where Matthews drying equipment needs to go.
We re-check moisture daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records.
Our Matthews 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.
We put the guarantee directly on the work order for every Matthews job, in writing. 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 Matthews property owners deserve more than a verbal assurance that a job is done — they deserve proof.
