Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Ray crews are already moving. We dispatch Ray units carrying industrial extraction pumps, air movers, and commercial dehumidifiers already loaded on the truck.
Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Ray, OH kept telling us the same story: a national hotline picked up, put them on hold, and then subcontracted the job out to whoever was cheapest and closest. Every technician on our Ray 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 Ray isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. We're fully insured and licensed to work anywhere in Ray, OH, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Ray, OH warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Talk to a Ray 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 Ray call at a time.
The most expensive Ray restoration jobs we run almost never started as a dramatic flood; they started as something small that got put off. 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 Ray team and get a straight answer on how urgent it is.
We size the Ray response to the actual damage — a single-room extraction gets a two-person crew, a commercial loss gets the full fleet — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
We arrive with submersible pumps and truck-mount extractors that get standing water out of a Ray 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.
Our drying plans use moisture meters and thermal imaging to target air movers exactly where hidden moisture is trapped, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
For Ray 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.
For commercial Ray accounts, we assign a project lead, run crews after normal hours to reduce downtime, and bring equipment sized to the actual footprint — we know a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants below has to move fast.
When a Ray 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.
On top of standard drying, our Ray crews treat affected materials to reduce mold risk and will be upfront if a section needs specialist remediation.
You get a written estimate before any equipment runs, not a mystery total handed to you after the fact.
Our Ray, OH warehouse keeps drying equipment close, which typically puts a Ray tech at your door inside an hour.
Our paperwork is built to match what adjusters expect, and we'll speak with your insurer directly on your behalf.
We don't call a job finished until the moisture meter agrees, and if it doesn't, we return at no additional cost.
Our Ray team asks a handful of targeted questions so the truck that shows up already has the right gear loaded.
The closest available technician is routed to your Ray 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 Ray 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 Ray paperwork, not just mentioned over the phone. We try to send the original technician back for any follow-up so you're not re-explaining the job to someone new.

Our Ray on-call rotation covers water extraction, drying, and blackwater cleanup any hour of the day or night.
Direct adjuster communication is standard — we send photo and moisture documentation formatted for a Ray insurance claim.
We take moisture meter readings on affected materials and compare them against the dry standard for that material type — a visual check alone isn't enough.

If it's safe, shut off the water source, move electronics and valuables away from the affected area, and avoid the space if standing water is near outlets.
Commercial response is a regular part of our Ray work — restaurants, offices, and multi-unit buildings included.
Typical drying time runs 3-5 days for a Ray home, though a job that sat unaddressed longer can take longer to fully dry.
Quick extraction and drying in Ray significantly lowers mold risk, since spores need sustained moisture over roughly a day or two to establish.
