Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Urbandale crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your Urbandale address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.
Too many Urbandale, IA 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 Urbandale operation differently. Every technician on our Urbandale 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 Emergency Water Damage in Urbandale isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. Full liability coverage and Urbandale, IA 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 Urbandale, IA warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Talk to a Urbandale 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 Urbandale call at a time.

If you're nodding along to any of these, get ahead of it now rather than later — our Urbandale dispatcher will give you an honest read on urgency, not a sales pitch.
From a single soaked bedroom to a commercial building with three flooded floors, our Urbandale teams are equipped to scale up or down — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Our Urbandale units run truck-mount extraction pumps that pull thousands of gallons per hour, cutting standing-water time from days to hours. Every extraction job includes moisture mapping so we know exactly which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
We place industrial dehumidifiers and air movers based on actual psychrometric calculations, not a standard equipment count per room, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
For Urbandale 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.
Multi-unit and commercial Urbandale properties get their own project manager plus enough drying equipment to cover the real square footage, not a token setup — we know a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants below has to move fast.

Standing water comes out first; drying equipment gets placed only after we've mapped exactly where moisture is hiding.
We don't close the file until the numbers confirm the structure is dry, and you leave with full photo and moisture documentation.
We measure moisture with instruments, not guesswork, and we won't sign off on a Urbandale job until those readings match the dry standard for the materials involved. If a callback shows lingering moisture within 30 days of a completed job, we return and correct it at no additional charge.
That's not a marketing line — it's written into every Urbandale work order we issue. We try to send the original technician back for any follow-up so you're not re-explaining the job to someone new.
