Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Cottonwood crews are already moving. Hirex Water Damage sends licensed technicians straight to your Cottonwood address with extraction equipment already loaded and running.

We built our Cottonwood branch after hearing the same complaint over and over from Cottonwood, MN property owners — the "24/7" number that never actually answers. Every technician on our Cottonwood roster is a Hirex Water Damage employee, not a gig-app contractor pulled from a random directory.
Our crew leads carry IICRC water restoration certifications and have logged real hours on Category 1, 2, and 3 losses, so Basement Flooding in Cottonwood 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 Cottonwood, MN, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Our Cottonwood, MN-based equipment cache means drying gear is already close by, not stuck in a truck three states away.
Talk to a Cottonwood property manager who's lived through an overnight pipe failure and they'll tell you exactly why a crew that arrives already equipped matters — every extra minute is more water in the framing. That's the gap Hirex Water Damage was built to close, one Cottonwood call at a time.

Water damage doesn't always look dramatic at first — some of the costliest Cottonwood 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:
Recognizing one of these signs early is the difference between a contained repair and a gutted room, so call our Cottonwood team and get a straight answer on how urgent it is.
Whether it's one bedroom carpet or an entire flooded commercial floor, our Cottonwood crews scale the response to match the loss — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Truck-mounted extraction equipment on every Cottonwood 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.
For Cottonwood 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.
Cottonwood 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 Cottonwood crews are trained for exactly that protocol.
We apply antimicrobial treatment during every Cottonwood drying job specifically to head off mold before it starts, and we'll flag any area that needs deeper remediation.

Every Cottonwood estimate is written and explained before work begins — no vague "we'll see how it goes" pricing.
Our Cottonwood, MN warehouse keeps drying equipment close, which typically puts a Cottonwood tech at your door inside an hour.
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 Cottonwood job done, and getting there again is on us, not you.
Tell our Cottonwood dispatcher what's happening — we'll ask a few quick questions to send the right equipment on the first trip.
A licensed technician heads to your Cottonwood address with extraction and drying equipment already loaded.
Extraction happens immediately, followed by a moisture survey that tells us precisely where the drying equipment needs to go.
We don't close the file until the numbers confirm the structure is dry, and you leave with full photo and moisture documentation.

Every Cottonwood job gets closed based on instrument readings, not a visual check, and we won't call it finished until the numbers say it's finished. 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 Cottonwood work order we issue. A repeat visit under this guarantee doesn't mean starting over — we pull the original moisture logs and pick up exactly where the last visit left off.
