A burst supply line, an overflowing tub, or a storm surge under the back door doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our Millbrae-based teams arrive with truck-mount extractors, moisture meters, and drying gear staged and ready to go.
Too many Millbrae, CA 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 Millbrae operation differently. Every technician on our Millbrae roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Our senior technicians are IICRC-certified and have worked everything from a clean supply-line break to a full sewage backup, so Water Damage Repair in Millbrae isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. Full liability coverage and Millbrae, CA licensing back every job we take, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
We keep a stocked warehouse inside Millbrae, CA so equipment never has to be trucked in from another region, which is the difference between a 45-minute arrival and a next-day one.
