Whether it's a slow leak that's been eating your subfloor for weeks or a flooded basement at 2am, our Ponderosa crews are already moving. We dispatch Ponderosa units carrying industrial extraction pumps, air movers, and commercial dehumidifiers already loaded on the truck.

Hirex Water Damage started because homeowners in Ponderosa, NM 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 Ponderosa 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 Water Damage Repair in Ponderosa 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 Ponderosa, NM, so you're protected from the moment our truck pulls into the driveway.
Our Ponderosa, NM-based equipment cache means drying gear is already close by, not stuck in a truck three states away.
Anyone in Ponderosa 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 Ponderosa call at a time.

Water damage doesn't always look dramatic at first — some of the costliest Ponderosa 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 Ponderosa team and get a straight answer on how urgent it is.
From a single soaked bedroom to a commercial building with three flooded floors, our Ponderosa teams are equipped to scale up or down — nothing gets a cookie-cutter response.
Truck-mounted extraction equipment on every Ponderosa 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 Ponderosa 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.
Ponderosa 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.
Blackwater losses in Ponderosa get handled under strict Category 3 protocol: containment, PPE, antimicrobial application, and documented disposal of contaminated materials.
On top of standard drying, our Ponderosa crews treat affected materials to reduce mold risk and will be upfront if a section needs specialist remediation.

We re-check moisture levels daily until materials hit dry standard, then hand you full documentation for your records or your insurer.

Our Ponderosa 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.
You'll find that exact commitment printed on your Ponderosa paperwork, not just mentioned over the phone. We try to send the original technician back for any follow-up so you're not re-explaining the job to someone new.
