A burst supply line, an overflowing tub, or a storm surge under the back door doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your Cortez address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.
We built our Cortez branch after hearing the same complaint over and over from Cortez, CO property owners — the "24/7" number that never actually answers. Every technician on our Cortez 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 Water Damage Repair in Cortez isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. Full liability coverage and Cortez, CO licensing back every job we take, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Cortez, CO warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Ask any Cortez 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 Cortez call at a time.
Water damage doesn't always look dramatic at first — some of the costliest Cortez jobs we've handled began as a small, easy-to-miss problem. 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 Cortez line and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-day emergency or something we can schedule.
We size the Cortez 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 Cortez 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 Cortez 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.
For commercial Cortez accounts, we assign a project lead, run crews after normal hours to reduce downtime, and bring equipment sized to the actual footprint — 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 Cortez crews are trained for exactly that protocol.
Every Cortez 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.
We quote the job before equipment gets plugged in, so there's no surprise line item buried in the final invoice.
Our Cortez, CO warehouse keeps drying equipment close, which typically puts a Cortez tech at your door inside an hour.
Our paperwork is built to match what adjusters expect, and we'll speak with your insurer directly on your behalf.
Final moisture readings have to hit dry-standard before we consider a Cortez job done, and getting there again is on us, not you.
A short call with our Cortez 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 Cortez 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.
Our Cortez technicians use moisture meters at the start and the end of every job, and the final number has to hit the dry standard before we leave. 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 Cortez 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.

Most Cortez residential jobs dry out in 3 to 5 days depending on how much material got wet and how long it sat before extraction.
