Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Scranton crews are already moving. We dispatch Scranton units carrying industrial extraction pumps, air movers, and commercial dehumidifiers already loaded on the truck.

Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Scranton, PA 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 Scranton 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 Scranton isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. Full liability coverage and Scranton, PA licensing back every job we take, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Our Scranton, PA-based equipment cache means drying gear is already close by, not stuck in a truck three states away.
Anyone in Scranton 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 Scranton call at a time.

Not every leak announces itself with a flooded floor. A lot of the worst damage we see in Scranton started small and got ignored for weeks. 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 Scranton line and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-day emergency or something we can schedule.
We size the Scranton 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 Scranton 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 Scranton, 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.
Scranton 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.
When a Scranton job involves sewage backup, our team suits up in full PPE, applies EPA-registered antimicrobials, and safely disposes of porous materials that can't be saved.
We apply antimicrobial treatment during every Scranton drying job specifically to head off mold before it starts, and we'll flag any area that needs deeper remediation.

You get a written estimate before any equipment runs, not a mystery total handed to you after the fact.
Because our equipment cache sits inside Scranton, PA, most Scranton calls see a technician on-site in under 60 minutes.
We photograph and log every step specifically so your claim moves faster and you're not the one arguing with the insurance company.
Final moisture readings have to hit dry-standard before we consider a Scranton job done, and getting there again is on us, not you.
Tell our Scranton 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 Scranton property with equipment staged and ready.
We remove standing water first, then map moisture and position air movers and dehumidifiers based on the readings.
We don't close the file until the numbers confirm the structure is dry, and you leave with full photo and moisture documentation.

We measure moisture with instruments, not guesswork, and we won't sign off on a Scranton 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 Scranton work order, not just in an ad. If a second visit is ever needed, it comes from the same crew that handled the original job whenever scheduling allows, since they already know the property and the readings we started from.
