Water damage in Boulder rarely waits for a convenient hour, and neither does our dispatch line. Our Boulder-based teams roll out with extraction and drying gear already loaded, not scrambling to gather it after the call.


Hirex Water Damage didn't start as a franchise looking for a new zip code to expand into — it started because Boulder homeowners kept describing the same frustrating experience: a national hotline, a long hold, and a subcontractor nobody vetted. Every technician you'll meet is a direct Hirex Water Damage employee, not a subcontractor pulled from an app.
Each senior tech on our Boulder roster is IICRC-certified and has handled everything from a clean supply-line break to a full Category 3 sewage loss, which is why Structural Drying in Boulder is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. We carry full liability coverage and hold active licensing to operate throughout Boulder, CO.
Because our gear is staged locally rather than shipped in, Boulder response times run well ahead of a typical national franchise.
Talk to a Boulder 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 Boulder technicians go through regular continuing education, because a method that was standard five years ago may not be the best option today.

Not every water problem looks dramatic — some of the costliest Boulder repairs began as a barely-noticeable issue. Here's what tells our team a Boulder 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 Boulder team before it spreads.
From a single flooded closet to a three-story commercial building, our Boulder crews scale the response to match the actual damage. Every service below reflects a specific piece of equipment or protocol, not just a marketing category.
Our Boulder 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.
Our drying plans rely on moisture meters and thermal imaging to target air movers exactly where hidden Boulder moisture is trapped, with daily logs so you can watch the numbers improve.
For Boulder homeowners, that means flood-cut drywall removal, subfloor assessment, and content pack-out for anything salvageable, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
Boulder businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage — a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants has to move fast.
When a Boulder job involves sewage backup, our team suits up fully, applies EPA-registered antimicrobials, and disposes of porous materials that can't be saved.
On top of standard drying, our Boulder crews apply antimicrobial treatment and will tell you plainly if a section needs specialist attention.
You'll see a written estimate before any equipment runs on your Boulder property, not a mystery total after the fact.
Because equipment is staged inside Boulder, most calls see a technician on-site in under an hour.
We document every Boulder job with photos and moisture logs and can speak directly with your adjuster.
We don't call a Boulder job finished until the meter agrees, and if it doesn't, we return at no additional cost.
Our Boulder team asks just enough to send the right-sized crew, not a generic single technician every time.
A licensed technician heads to your Boulder address with extraction and drying equipment already loaded.
Standing water comes out first, then we map moisture and position air movers based on the readings.
Daily moisture checks continue on every Boulder job until each material reads dry, and you get a full report at the end.

Our Boulder 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.
You'll find that exact guarantee printed on your Boulder paperwork, not only spoken over the phone. If a follow-up visit is ever needed, we send a technician familiar with the original job whenever scheduling allows, so you're not re-explaining the situation to someone new.
Trust matters, but in restoration work, documented moisture readings matter more, and that's what our Boulder guarantee is built on.
