Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Old Lyme crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your Old Lyme address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.

Too many Old Lyme, CT 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 Old Lyme operation differently. Every technician on our Old Lyme roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Each lead tech holds an IICRC Water Restoration Technician certification and has personally handled clean-water, gray-water, and contaminated black-water losses, so Structural Drying in Old Lyme 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 Old Lyme, CT, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
We keep a stocked warehouse inside Old Lyme, CT 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.
Anyone in Old Lyme who has had a supply line fail overnight knows the real cost isn't the leak itself, it's how long the standing water sits before someone with the right equipment arrives. That's the gap Hirex Water Damage was built to close, one Old Lyme call at a time.

The most expensive Old Lyme 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:
If any of that sounds familiar, don't wait for it to get worse — call our Old Lyme line and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-day emergency or something we can schedule.
From a single soaked bedroom to a commercial building with three flooded floors, our Old Lyme teams are equipped to scale up or down — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Our Old Lyme 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 families in Old Lyme, this covers flood-cut drywall removal, subfloor evaluation, and packing out salvageable belongings for cleaning, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
Multi-unit and commercial Old Lyme 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.
Category 3 blackwater calls for full PPE, antimicrobial treatment, and disposal of anything porous that touched the contamination — our Old Lyme crews are trained for exactly that protocol.
On top of standard drying, our Old Lyme 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 Old Lyme, CT warehouse keeps drying equipment close, which typically puts a Old Lyme tech at your door inside an hour.
We document everything with photos and moisture logs and work directly with your adjuster so you're not stuck translating restoration jargon.
If moisture readings aren't where they should be at the end of the job, we come back and keep drying at no extra charge.
Tell our Old Lyme dispatcher what's happening — we'll ask a few quick questions to send the right equipment on the first trip.
The closest available technician is routed to your Old Lyme property with equipment staged and ready.
We remove standing water first, then map moisture and position air movers and dehumidifiers based on the readings.
Daily moisture checks continue until every affected material reads dry, and you get a complete report at the end.

We measure moisture with instruments, not guesswork, and we won't sign off on a Old Lyme 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.
We put that guarantee directly on the Old Lyme work order, not just in an ad. We try to send the original technician back for any follow-up so you're not re-explaining the job to someone new.
