Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in South Wilmington, IL 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 South Wilmington 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 South Wilmington isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. We carry full general liability coverage and are licensed to operate throughout South Wilmington, IL, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a South Wilmington, IL warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
