Who We Are

The Team Behind the Truck

Aqua Guard Water Damage didn't parachute into Montrose with a rented truck and a stock script. Our technicians have worked this market long enough to know which neighborhoods sit low, which ones have older cast-iron plumbing, and which zip codes call in during every heavy storm.

Local pricing means local pricing — our Montrose estimates reflect actual regional labor and material costs, not a national average that leaves you either overpaying or underinsured.

We also keep documentation formatted the way insurance adjusters actually want to see it, since most of our jobs end up crossing an adjuster's desk at some point.

Worth a Second Look

Signs Your Property Needs Water Removal

Not every water problem announces itself with a flooded floor. Most start quietly, and catching one of these signs early is usually the difference between a same-day fix and a much bigger repair.

A Ceiling Stain That Keeps Coming Back

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 Basement That Smells Different Than It Used To

A musty note that wasn't there a season ago usually means microbial growth has started somewhere behind a wall or under flooring, well before you can see anything.

Flooring That Feels Different Underfoot

Hardwood cupping at the edges, laminate lifting at the seams, or carpet that stays spongy days after you last noticed water — all three point to moisture sitting against the subfloor.

A Water Bill That Jumped for No Reason

Catching a hidden leak through the water bill is far cheaper than waiting for it to surface as a flooded room.

Paint or Wallpaper Lifting Away From the Wall

Bubbling paint near a baseboard or exterior wall usually means moisture is pushing through from behind rather than a simple application defect.

Any Visible Mold, Even a Small Patch

A small patch of mold in a corner or along a baseboard means conditions behind that surface have supported growth for a while — the source needs to be found, not just wiped away.

Catching two or more of these signs at once usually means it's past time for a proper inspection.

Core Services

One Crew, Every Stage of Water Removal

Treating Water Removal as a single continuous job, rather than a series of handoffs, is what keeps timelines shorter and documentation consistent.

The equipment on our trucks scales up or down to the job, but the process — assess, extract, dry, verify, repair — doesn't change.

Emergency Extraction, First Hour Priority

We treat extraction speed as the single biggest variable we control — every additional hour of standing water raises the odds of secondary damage.

Structural Drying, Tracked With Real Numbers

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.'

Category 3 & Sewage Cleanup

Our sewage cleanup protocol follows IICRC S500 guidelines start to finish, including isolation of the affected zone and disposal documentation.

Mold Prevention Built Into the Drying Plan

We treat the 48-hour mold window as a deadline for our own drying timeline, not a talking point.

Reconstruction Under the Same Contract

One contract from extraction through reconstruction means you're not managing two separate companies and two separate invoices.

Content Pack-Out & Cleaning

Furniture, electronics, and documents get assessed on-site, with salvageable items cleaned and stored while the space dries.

How It Works

Our Water Removal Response, Step by Step

Four steps, no guesswork — here's exactly what happens between your call and a verified-dry structure.

Dispatch Picks Up

Real person, real questions, fast routing — the goal is getting a truck moving within minutes of hanging up.

Technician Maps the Damage

Moisture meters and thermal cameras trace exactly how far water has traveled, including inside walls and under flooring where it's invisible to the eye.

Extraction, Then Drying

Equipment placement follows the specific psychrometric numbers from assessment, not a generic pattern used on every job.

Verified Dry, Then Repaired

Final verification is where corners often get cut industry-wide; we treat it as mandatory.

Why Choose Us

What Sets Aqua Guard Water Damage Apart

None of these four things matter in isolation — it's the combination of licensing, speed, honest pricing, and a real guarantee that actually changes the outcome of a water emergency.

Licensed & Insured

Every technician carries IICRC certification, and every crew works fully insured — documentation available whenever you want it.

Fast Local Dispatch

Regionally staged trucks mean a crew often arrives before a national chain's call center finishes the intake questionnaire.

Upfront Flat-Rate Pricing

You get a written estimate before equipment turns on, not a surprise invoice after the fact.

Backed by a Real Guarantee

Every job closes with a documented re-inspection, not a handshake and an invoice.

We Verify Before We Call It Done

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.

Reviews

What Customers Tell Us Afterward

★★★★★

"Our water heater gave out overnight and by the time I found the pool of water it had already crept under the cabinets. The crew here in Montrose had it extracted and drying equipment running before I finished my coffee."

Renee A., Montrose
★★★★★

"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., Montrose
★★★★★

"Professional from the first call to the final walkthrough, and they re-tested moisture before closing the job instead of eyeballing it."

Fatima J., Montrose
★★★★★

"The reconstruction crew matched our original flooring almost exactly after the repair — you'd never guess there was ever a leak."

Lucas P., Montrose
★★★★★

"We had a slow leak for weeks without noticing, and thermal imaging found moisture in a spot we never would have checked ourselves."

Grace T., Montrose
★★★★★

"They sectioned off the wet area instead of shutting down the whole office during drying, which kept us operating almost normally."

Nathaniel W., Montrose
★★★★★

"The technician explained exactly which boards needed to go and which tested dry enough to keep, so we didn't overpay for the repair."

Bianca H., Montrose
★★★★★

"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., Montrose
★★★★★

"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., Montrose
★★★★★

"Being out of town when it happened was stressful enough — having a crew that could work directly with our property manager made it manageable."

Victor N., Montrose
FAQ

Questions We Hear Most Often

How fast can a Water Removal technician arrive in Montrose, SD?▼
Crews staged inside Montrose typically reach an active water loss in under an hour, since trucks aren't dispatched from a distant office.
Do you provide upfront pricing?▼
We quote upfront based on the assessment, and that number is what you pay regardless of how long drying takes.
What emergency services do you offer?▼
Our emergency line covers 24/7 water extraction, structural drying, sewage cleanup, mold prevention, and reconstruction under one call.
Do you work with insurance companies directly?▼
We provide the documentation adjusters expect and are glad to communicate with your insurance company on your behalf.
How is contaminated water classified?▼
We follow IICRC standards: Category 1 is clean, Category 2 is gray water with some contamination, and Category 3 is black or sewage water requiring full protocols.
How long does drying usually take?▼
Timing depends on the materials affected and how long they stayed wet, tracked daily with moisture logs instead of an estimate.
Will drywall or flooring need to come out?▼
We remove only what the moisture readings and contamination level require, not as a default step, to keep repair costs down.
Can you help prevent mold after a leak?▼
Yes, antimicrobial treatment is applied to affected porous materials during the standard drying process, especially past the 48-hour mark.
Are you available outside normal business hours?▼
Our dispatch line runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week, holidays included, since water damage doesn't wait for business hours.
What should I do while waiting for the crew?▼
If it's safe, shut off the water source, move valuables to a dry area, and stay clear of outlets near standing water until we arrive.
Do you handle commercial properties?▼
Commercial losses get the same extraction and drying protocol as residential work, just with larger equipment as needed.
Is it worth calling about a small leak?▼
What looks minor on the surface can mean saturated material behind a wall that only a moisture meter will actually catch.
What information should I have ready when I call?▼
It helps to know roughly where the water's coming from and whether it looks clean or contaminated, though we'll walk you through it if you're not sure.
Do you guarantee your drying results?▼
Every job closes with a documented re-inspection, and if the numbers aren't where they need to be, the equipment stays in place at our cost.
Can I stay in my home during the drying process?▼
It depends on the extent of the damage and whether contamination is involved, but many residential jobs allow the household to stay while drying equipment runs.
