Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Chama crews are already moving. We dispatch Chama units carrying industrial extraction pumps, air movers, and commercial dehumidifiers already loaded on the truck.
Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Chama, CO 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 Chama 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 Basement Flooding in Chama isn't a side service we tacked on — it's the reason the company exists. We carry full general liability coverage and are licensed to operate throughout Chama, CO, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Because our equipment lives in a Chama, CO warehouse rather than out of state, we're not waiting on a supply run before we can start extraction.
Anyone in Chama 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 Chama call at a time.
The most expensive Chama 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 you're nodding along to any of these, get ahead of it now rather than later — our Chama dispatcher will give you an honest read on urgency, not a sales pitch.
We size the Chama 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 Chama 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.
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 Chama, 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.
For commercial Chama 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.
Blackwater losses in Chama get handled under strict Category 3 protocol: containment, PPE, antimicrobial application, and documented disposal of contaminated materials.
On top of standard drying, our Chama 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.
Our Chama, CO warehouse keeps drying equipment close, which typically puts a Chama tech at your door inside an hour.
We document everything with photos and moisture logs and work directly with your adjuster so you're not stuck translating restoration jargon.
Final moisture readings have to hit dry-standard before we consider a Chama job done, and getting there again is on us, not you.
Tell our Chama 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 Chama 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 re-check moisture levels daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records or your insurer.
We measure moisture with instruments, not guesswork, and we won't sign off on a Chama 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.
You'll find that exact commitment printed on your Chama paperwork, not just mentioned over the phone. 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.

Upfront, written pricing is standard on every Chama job, not an add-on option.
Our Chama on-call rotation covers water extraction, drying, and blackwater cleanup any hour of the day or night.

Dryness is confirmed with instrument readings against a documented dry standard, not just by feeling the wall or carpet.
Yes, our Chama crews are trained and equipped for Category 3 blackwater response, including PPE and antimicrobial treatment.
If it's safe, shut off the water source, move electronics and valuables away from the affected area, and avoid the space if standing water is near outlets.
We scale crews and equipment for commercial Chama accounts and assign a dedicated project lead for anything beyond a single unit.
Drying time varies with material and how quickly extraction started, but 3 to 5 days is typical for most Chama jobs.
Mold isn't inevitable, but the window to prevent it is narrow, which is why we treat speed as part of the Chama service, not an upsell.
Our Chama guarantee covers a 30-day callback window — if moisture shows up again from the same loss, we come back free of charge.
We cover Chama and the surrounding zip codes listed below, plus neighboring communities throughout Chama, CO.
Beyond Chama itself, our coverage extends across nearby zip codes, with additional Chama, CO crews available for large-scale or commercial losses. If your address falls inside or near Chama, a Hirex Water Damage crew can typically respond the same day.
