Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Rice crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your Rice address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.
Too many Rice, 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 Rice operation differently. Every technician on our Rice 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 Rice 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 Rice, MN, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Rice, MN warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Ask any Rice 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 Rice call at a time.
Not every leak announces itself with a flooded floor. A lot of the worst damage we see in Rice 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 Rice line and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-day emergency or something we can schedule.
We size the Rice 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.
Truck-mounted extraction equipment on every Rice rig pulls high volumes of standing water fast, so drying starts the same day instead of the next. Every extraction job includes moisture mapping so we know exactly which materials are still holding water once the visible flooding is gone.
We place industrial dehumidifiers and air movers based on actual psychrometric calculations, not a standard equipment count per room, with daily drying logs so you can see the numbers improving, not just take our word for it.
For Rice homeowners, that means drywall removal at the flood cut line, subfloor assessment, and content pack-out for anything that can be saved, with clear photo documentation at every stage for your insurance claim.
Rice 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.
Category 3 blackwater calls for full PPE, antimicrobial treatment, and disposal of anything porous that touched the contamination — our Rice crews are trained for exactly that protocol.
Every Rice job includes a preventive antimicrobial application, and if we spot conditions that need full remediation we tell you plainly instead of quietly hoping it clears up.
Every Rice estimate is written and explained before work begins — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.
Local staging inside Rice, MN means Rice response times usually beat the national average by a wide margin.
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 Rice job done, and getting there again is on us, not you.
A short call with our Rice dispatcher tells us whether this is a one-room job or a multi-crew response before anyone drives out.
The closest available technician is routed to your Rice property with equipment staged and ready.
We remove standing water first, then map moisture and position air movers and dehumidifiers based on the readings.
Daily moisture checks continue until every affected material reads dry, and you get a complete report at the end.
We measure moisture with instruments, not guesswork, and we won't sign off on a Rice 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 Rice work order we issue. We try to send the original technician back for any follow-up so you're not re-explaining the job to someone new.

We rely on moisture meters and psychrometric readings, not a guess, before signing off on a Rice job as complete.
Blackwater and sewage response is a core part of what our Rice team does, not a job we sub out.
Cut power to the affected area if there's standing water near outlets, and avoid walking through it until our Rice tech confirms it's safe.
Yes, we regularly respond to commercial and multi-unit losses in Rice, including retail, restaurants, and office space.
Most Rice residential jobs dry out in 3 to 5 days depending on how much material got wet and how long it sat before extraction.
Quick extraction and drying in Rice significantly lowers mold risk, since spores need sustained moisture over roughly a day or two to establish.
