Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Franklin Lakes, NJ 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 Franklin Lakes 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 Flood Damage Repair in Franklin Lakes isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists.
