Water damage in Ann Arbor rarely waits for a convenient hour, and neither does our dispatch line. Hirex Water Damage keeps Water Removal crews and equipment staged inside Ann Arbor so a technician can be at your door quickly.
Plenty of Ann Arbor 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 Ann Arbor crew leads have logged real hours on clean, gray, and contaminated water losses, which is why Water Removal in Ann Arbor is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. We carry full liability coverage and hold active licensing to operate throughout Ann Arbor, MI.
Because our gear is staged locally rather than shipped in, Ann Arbor response times run well ahead of a typical national franchise.
Talk to a Ann Arbor 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 Ann Arbor technicians go through regular continuing education, because a method that was standard five years ago may not be the best option today.
The Ann Arbor jobs that end up gutting a room almost always started quiet, not with a flood. Here's what tells our team a Ann Arbor 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 Ann Arbor team before it spreads.
We don't run a one-size response in Ann Arbor — a contained bathroom leak gets a different crew than a flooded restaurant kitchen. Every service below reflects a specific piece of equipment or protocol, not just a marketing category.
We arrive with submersible pumps and truck-mount extractors built to clear a flooded Ann Arbor room before water soaks deeper into the subfloor. Moisture mapping follows every extraction so we know which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
We calculate drying needs using humidity and temperature data rather than guessing at equipment placement, with daily logs so you can watch the numbers improve.
On the residential side in Ann Arbor, we handle the flood cut, subfloor checks, and content pack-out so the home is ready for rebuild, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
Multi-unit and commercial properties in Ann Arbor 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 Ann Arbor crews are trained for that exact protocol.
On top of standard drying, our Ann Arbor crews apply antimicrobial treatment and will tell you plainly if a section needs specialist attention.

Our Ann Arbor team asks just enough to send the right-sized crew, not a generic single technician every time.
Our nearest available Ann Arbor crew is dispatched immediately with truck-mount gear on board.
Standing water comes out first, then we map moisture and position air movers based on the readings.
We re-check moisture daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records.
Our Ann Arbor 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.
That commitment is written into every Ann Arbor work order we issue, not just mentioned in a sales pitch. We try to return the same crew for any callback so the person handling it already knows the property and the original readings.
A guarantee only means something if it's backed by documented numbers, which is why every Ann Arbor job closes with instrument readings attached.
