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

Too many Lake Elmo, MN 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 Lake Elmo operation differently. Every technician on our Lake Elmo 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 Flood Damage Repair in Lake Elmo 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 Lake Elmo, MN, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Lake Elmo, MN warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Ask any Lake Elmo property manager who has dealt with a burst supply line at 3am — the difference between a crew that shows up ready and one still loading a truck at the shop is measured in gallons of water soaking into your subfloor. That's the gap Hirex Water Damage was built to close, one Lake Elmo call at a time.

The most expensive Lake Elmo 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 Lake Elmo line and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-day emergency or something we can schedule.
We size the Lake Elmo 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.
Our Lake Elmo 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.
Once water is out, we bring in commercial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers, positioned using psychrometric readings rather than guesswork, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
On the residential side in Lake Elmo, we handle the flood-cut, subfloor checks, and content pack-out so your home is ready to rebuild, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
Lake Elmo businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage rather than a single-crew response — we know a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants below has to move fast.
Blackwater losses in Lake Elmo get handled under strict Category 3 protocol: containment, PPE, antimicrobial application, and documented disposal of contaminated materials.
On top of standard drying, our Lake Elmo crews treat affected materials to reduce mold risk and will be upfront if a section needs specialist remediation.

We quote the job before equipment gets plugged in, so there's no surprise line item buried in the final invoice.

We measure moisture with instruments, not guesswork, and we won't sign off on a Lake Elmo 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.
That's not a marketing line — it's written into every Lake Elmo work order we issue. A repeat visit under this guarantee doesn't mean starting over — we pull the original moisture logs and pick up exactly where the last visit left off.
