We run our Minnetonka operation on IICRC-certified technicians and commercial-grade equipment, not a subcontractor list we pull from when the phone rings.
Local pricing means local pricing — our Minnetonka estimates reflect actual regional labor and material costs, not a national average that leaves you either overpaying or underinsured.
Homeowners dealing with a flood are stressed enough without technical jargon, so we train our crews to explain the process in plain terms from the first phone call.
Water damage rarely starts as a dramatic flood — it usually starts small, and these are the signs worth acting on before the damage spreads further.
Repainting over a recurring ceiling stain treats the symptom, not the leak still feeding it from above or behind the surface. The stain returning is the actual diagnosis.
A smell that gets stronger after rain is a strong hint that groundwater or a foundation crack is letting moisture in during wet weather.
Flooring that shifts slightly when you walk on it, even subtly, is worth a moisture reading before it gets worse.
A sudden increase in usage with no change in household habits is often the earliest sign of a slab leak, well before any visible water shows up.
Wallpaper that suddenly lifts at the seams after holding fine for years often signals a change in the humidity or moisture level inside that wall cavity.
Mold that returns after a bleach cleaning is a sign the moisture source behind it was never actually addressed.
Catching two or more of these signs at once usually means it's past time for a proper inspection.
Bouncing between an extraction company, a drying company, and a repair contractor is how small jobs turn into weeks-long headaches — we keep all three under one roof on purpose.
Every service below gets the same documentation standard, whether it's a single wet closet or a full commercial loss.
The first hour after a water loss decides how much of the structure is salvageable, which is why extraction is always the first truck-mount job, not an afterthought behind paperwork.
Daily drying logs track humidity and surface moisture at every checkpoint, giving you documented proof of progress instead of a verbal 'it's getting there.'
Blackwater intrusions call for full PPE, controlled removal of porous materials that can't be sanitized, and hospital-grade disinfection before any reconstruction starts.
We treat the 48-hour mold window as a deadline for our own drying timeline, not a talking point.
Once moisture readings confirm the structure is dry, the same team that documented and dried the loss hands off directly into drywall, insulation, and flooring repair.
We inventory and relocate contents that need to leave the affected area, then coordinate their return once the space is verified dry.
This is the same sequence every job follows, whether it's a single flooded room or a full commercial loss.
A live dispatcher, not a voicemail tree, takes your call and asks a few quick questions about the source and severity so the crew rolls out prepared.
Skipping or rushing this step is how hidden moisture pockets turn into a mold problem months down the line.
Extraction and drying run as one continuous process rather than two separate scheduled visits.
Every affected area gets re-tested before we call the job complete — no shortcuts on the sign-off.
We built the checklist below around the actual complaints people have about restoration companies in general, then made sure Aqua Guard Water Damage doesn't repeat them.
Licensing and insurance aren't paperwork we keep in a drawer; they're what let us stand behind the work if something doesn't go as planned.
Regionally staged trucks mean a crew often arrives before a national chain's call center finishes the intake questionnaire.
You get a written estimate before equipment turns on, not a surprise invoice after the fact.
Every job closes with a documented re-inspection, not a handshake and an invoice.
Every job closes with documented moisture verification, because a promise without data behind it isn't much of a promise.
This isn't marketing copy — it's the actual checklist our crews sign off against before a job is marked complete.

"What stood out was how calm the technician stayed while explaining a genuinely stressful situation — that mattered more than I expected."
Renee A., Minnetonka"They found mold starting behind our baseboards before it spread and handled containment properly instead of painting over it like a previous company tried."
Owen D., Minnetonka"The sewage backup in our basement bathroom got the full PPE-and-disinfection treatment, and they walked me through exactly why certain materials had to go."
Fatima J., Minnetonka"Every cost question got a straight answer, even the awkward ones, which is more than I can say for the last two contractors I dealt with."
Lucas P., Minnetonka"The thermal scan caught damage behind a cabinet that could have turned into a much bigger mold problem if it went unnoticed."
Grace T., Minnetonka"Our office flooded overnight and industrial equipment was already running before our staff arrived for the morning shift."
Nathaniel W., Minnetonka"A cracked supply line under our kitchen sink went unnoticed for days, and by the time we called, the subfloor was saturated. They only replaced what actually tested wet, not the whole floor."
Bianca H., Minnetonka"They explained the crawl space drainage issue in plain terms instead of technical jargon, and fixed it on the spot rather than scheduling a separate trip."
Derek S., Minnetonka"They found the actual source of the leak instead of just drying the surface damage, which saved us from the same problem happening again in a month."
Melissa C., Minnetonka"A dishwasher supply line failed while we were on vacation and came home to a soaked kitchen floor. They handled the extraction, drying, and coordination with our property manager without us having to fly back early."
Victor N., Minnetonka
