When a pipe bursts or a storm backs up your drain lines, waiting on hold is the last thing you can afford. Our Tontogany-based crews carry moisture meters and truck-mount extraction equipment on every rig so the drying process starts the moment we knock on your door.

Aqua Guard Water Damage built its Tontogany operation around one standard: arrive fast, document everything with moisture readings and thermal imaging, and communicate the drying plan in plain language before we touch a single wall.
Being local to Tontogany means our estimators know the going rate for drywall and flooring replacement in your area, so the quote you get reflects your market instead of a national average that never quite matches your invoice.
We invest in ongoing training as drying standards and equipment evolve, rather than treating a technician's initial certification as the finish line.
Ceiling stains near a bathroom or kitchen almost always trace back to a plumbing failure rather than a roof leak, which means the source is often closer and easier to fix than homeowners assume.
If opening windows and running a fan doesn't clear the smell within a day, the moisture source is still active and needs professional extraction, not just ventilation. A smell that returns after cleaning is a strong sign the moisture is still present.
Hardwood that's cupping at the edges or laminate that's separating at the seams is a classic sign of moisture intrusion from below, whether that's a slab leak or groundwater seepage. The longer it sits, the harder the flooring is to salvage.
If your usage climbs but nothing in your household routine changed, a hidden leak behind a wall or under the foundation is worth investigating immediately, since slab leaks rarely announce themselves any other way.
Bubbling near a window or exterior wall frequently points to a flashing or seal failure letting water into the wall cavity a little at a time.
Any visible mold, even a small patch in a corner or along a baseboard, means conditions behind that surface have supported growth for a while and the moisture source needs to be found, not just the mold wiped away.
Our Water Damage Repair process covers every stage of a water loss, from the first extraction pass to the final coat of paint, so you're never left coordinating separate contractors mid-project.
Standing water gets removed with commercial extraction equipment first, then we run moisture readings across every affected surface so the drying plan targets what's actually still wet, not what looks dry on the surface.
Drying logs track humidity, surface moisture, and airflow at every checkpoint, so you get documented proof the structure is dry before we close out the job — useful for your insurance claim too.
Our sewage cleanup protocol follows IICRC S500 contamination standards, isolating the affected area, removing unsalvageable materials, and disinfecting every surface that had contact with blackwater.
If mold has already taken hold, our containment and remediation process isolates the affected zone with negative air pressure before any demolition begins, keeping spores from spreading to unaffected rooms.
The same team that documented the damage and dried the structure hands off directly to reconstruction, which keeps the whole timeline shorter and the paperwork simpler.
We inventory and pack out contents that need to leave the affected area during drying, then coordinate their return once the space is verified dry and repairs are complete.
A real person answers, gathers the details of your water loss, and routes the closest available crew immediately.
The assessment sets the entire plan — skipping it or rushing it is how jobs end up with hidden moisture pockets months later.
Standing water comes out first with truck-mount equipment, then air movers and dehumidifiers go to work based on the psychrometric numbers we recorded.
Once moisture readings confirm the structure is dry, we hand you documentation and move into any needed reconstruction.
Insurance and licensing aren't just paperwork here — they're what let us stand behind the work if something doesn't go as planned.
A crew close by isn't a marketing line — it's the difference between drying equipment running in an hour versus waiting half a day.
We'd rather explain the cost clearly upfront than have that conversation after the job is already underway.
If a drying target isn't met on the first pass, we extend equipment placement at no extra charge until moisture readings confirm the structure is dry.
We'd rather run drying equipment an extra day at our own cost than close out a job with a moisture reading we're not confident in.
Our technicians don't get paid faster by closing jobs early, which keeps the incentive aligned with actually finishing the drying properly.

"I called in a panic at 11pm and someone actually picked up. The tech here in Tontogany had air movers set up before midnight and explained exactly what they were doing and why."
James R., Tontogany"They caught mold starting behind our drywall before it spread and contained it properly instead of just painting over the problem like a previous contractor did."
Denise M., Tontogany"They didn't cut corners on the contaminated water cleanup even though it would have been faster to skip the sanitization step — that mattered to me given we have young kids in the house."
Marcus T., Tontogany"Every question I asked got a straight answer, even the ones about cost, which is rare after dealing with two other contractors who kept dodging the pricing conversation."
Priya S., Tontogany"Drying logs were shared with us daily so we always knew exactly where the job stood, not just a vague 'it's drying' update."
Carlos V., Tontogany"Coordinating a commercial job around our operating hours could have been a nightmare, but their crew worked around our schedule without us having to ask twice."
Angela F., Tontogany"The tech explained exactly which boards needed to come out and which ones tested dry enough to keep, so we didn't pay to replace more than necessary."
Tyrone B., Tontogany"Storm runoff got into our crawl space and the smell alone told us something was wrong. The crew found the vapor barrier had failed and fixed the actual cause, not just the symptom."
Wendy K., Tontogany
