Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our New Athens crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your New Athens address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.
Too many New Athens, IL families have called a big national number only to get bounced through hold music before a random subcontractor shows up hours later, so Hirex Water Damage built its New Athens operation differently. Every technician on our New Athens roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Each lead tech holds an IICRC Water Restoration Technician certification and has personally handled clean-water, gray-water, and contaminated black-water losses, so Basement Flooding in New Athens isn't a side service we tacked on β it's the reason the company exists.
