Water damage in Lima rarely waits for a convenient hour, and neither does our dispatch line. Hirex Water Damage keeps Structural Drying crews and equipment staged inside Lima so a technician can be at your door quickly.


We built Hirex Water Damage's Lima operation after hearing the same complaint over and over: the "24/7" number that never actually answers when it matters. Every technician you'll meet is a direct Hirex Water Damage employee, not a subcontractor pulled from an app.
Each senior tech on our Lima roster is IICRC-certified and has handled everything from a clean supply-line break to a full Category 3 sewage loss, which is why Structural Drying in Lima is treated as a specialty, not a side offering. We carry full liability coverage and hold active licensing to operate throughout Lima, OH.
Equipment lives in a Lima-area warehouse rather than being trucked in from three counties over, which shortens arrival time considerably.
Ask any Lima property manager who's dealt with an overnight pipe failure and they'll tell you the real cost isn't the leak itself — it's how long standing water sits before someone with the right equipment shows up. That gap between a fast, equipped response and a slow, improvised one is exactly what Hirex Water Damage was built to close.
We also invest in ongoing technician training, since restoration methods and equipment keep evolving and a Lima crew running outdated techniques does the property a disservice.

Plenty of the worst jobs we've walked into in Lima started as something small that got put off for a few weeks. Here's what tells our team a Lima property needs a professional look rather than a mop and a fan:
If you're nodding along, get ahead of it now — our Lima dispatcher will tell you honestly whether it's urgent or something we can schedule.
We don't run a one-size response in Lima — a contained bathroom leak gets a different crew than a flooded restaurant kitchen. Each item on this list corresponds to an actual step in our process, not a generic label.
Truck-mount extraction on every Lima rig means high-volume pickup starts the same day, not the next. Moisture mapping follows every extraction so we know which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
Once extraction wraps, commercial air movers and LGR dehumidifiers go to work based on psychrometric readings, not a flat per-room count, with daily logs so you can watch the numbers improve.
For Lima homeowners, that means flood-cut drywall removal, subfloor assessment, and content pack-out for anything salvageable, with photo documentation at every stage for your insurance file.
Lima businesses and property managers get a dedicated project lead, after-hours crews, and equipment scaled to square footage — a flooded lobby or a leaking unit above tenants has to move fast.
When a Lima job involves sewage backup, our team suits up fully, applies EPA-registered antimicrobials, and disposes of porous materials that can't be saved.
We treat affected materials during every Lima job specifically to lower mold risk, and flag anything that needs deeper remediation.
We quote every Lima job before equipment gets plugged in, so there's no surprise charge buried in the final invoice.
Local staging inside Lima typically puts a tech at your door quickly, not after a long drive across the region.
We photograph and log every step so your Lima claim moves faster and you're not arguing with an insurer alone.
If moisture readings aren't where they should be at the end of a Lima job, we come back and keep drying at no extra charge.
Tell our Lima dispatcher what's happening — a few quick questions get the right equipment on the first trip.
The closest available Lima technician is routed to you with equipment staged and ready.
We extract immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where Lima drying equipment needs to go.
We re-check moisture daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records.

Our Lima 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.
That commitment is written into every Lima work order we issue, not just mentioned in a sales pitch. If a follow-up visit is ever needed, we send a technician familiar with the original job whenever scheduling allows, so you're not re-explaining the situation to someone new.
We built this guarantee because Lima property owners deserve more than a verbal assurance that a job is done — they deserve proof.
