Whether it's a slow drip that finally gave out or a sudden flood at midnight, Chico residents call one number and get a real answer. Our Chico-based teams roll out with extraction and drying gear already loaded, not scrambling to gather it after the call.
Hirex Water Damage didn't start as a franchise looking for a new zip code to expand into — it started because Chico homeowners kept describing the same frustrating experience: a national hotline, a long hold, and a subcontractor nobody vetted. Every technician you'll meet is a direct Hirex Water Damage employee, not a subcontractor pulled from an app.

If any of that sounds familiar, don't wait for it to get worse — call our Chico line and we'll give you a straight answer on urgency.
We don't run a one-size response in Chico — a contained bathroom leak gets a different crew than a flooded restaurant kitchen. We list these as distinct services because each genuinely requires different tools and training, not interchangeable labor.
Our Chico units carry truck-mount extraction pumps that pull standing water out fast, cutting exposure time from days to hours. Moisture mapping follows every extraction so we know which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
We calculate drying needs using humidity and temperature data rather than guessing at equipment placement, with daily logs so you can watch the numbers improve.

Our Chico technicians take moisture readings at the start and end of every job, and the final number has to hit dry standard before we leave. If a callback within 30 days shows lingering moisture from the same loss, we return and correct it at no additional charge.
