Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Houlton crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your Houlton address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.
We built our Houlton branch after hearing the same complaint over and over from Houlton, WI property owners — the "24/7" number that never actually answers. Every technician on our Houlton roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Our crew leads carry IICRC water restoration certifications and have logged real hours on Category 1, 2, and 3 losses, so Basement Flooding in Houlton isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. Full liability coverage and Houlton, WI licensing back every job we take, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Houlton, WI warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Talk to a Houlton 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 Houlton call at a time.
Not every leak announces itself with a flooded floor. A lot of the worst damage we see in Houlton started small and got ignored for weeks. Here's what tells us a property needs professional attention rather than a mop and a fan:
Recognizing one of these signs early is the difference between a contained repair and a gutted room, so call our Houlton team and get a straight answer on how urgent it is.
From a single soaked bedroom to a commercial building with three flooded floors, our Houlton teams are equipped to scale up or down — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
We arrive with submersible pumps and truck-mount extractors that get standing water out of a Houlton property before it soaks deeper into the subfloor. Every extraction job includes moisture mapping so we know exactly which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
Once water is out, we bring in commercial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers, positioned using psychrometric readings rather than guesswork, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
For Houlton homeowners, that means drywall removal at the flood cut line, subfloor assessment, and content pack-out for anything that can be saved, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
Houlton 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.
When a Houlton job involves sewage backup, our team suits up in full PPE, applies EPA-registered antimicrobials, and safely disposes of porous materials that can't be saved.
We apply antimicrobial treatment during every Houlton drying job specifically to head off mold before it starts, and we'll flag any area that needs deeper remediation.
Every Houlton estimate is written and explained before work begins — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.
Our Houlton, WI warehouse keeps drying equipment close, which typically puts a Houlton tech at your door inside an hour.
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 Houlton dispatcher tells us whether this is a one-room job or a multi-crew response before anyone drives out.
The closest available technician is routed to your Houlton property with equipment staged and ready.
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.
Our Houlton technicians use moisture meters at the start and the end of every job, and the final number has to hit the dry standard before we leave. If a callback shows lingering moisture within 30 days of a completed job, we return and correct it at no additional charge.
You'll find that exact commitment printed on your Houlton paperwork, not just mentioned over the phone. If a second visit is ever needed, it comes from the same crew that handled the original job whenever scheduling allows, since they already know the property and the readings we started from.

Drying time varies with material and how quickly extraction started, but 3 to 5 days is typical for most Houlton jobs.
