A washing machine hose lets go at 2am and suddenly your Dexter laundry room is underwater — that's the exact moment our dispatch line is built for, with a technician routed before you've finished mopping the first puddle.

Aqua Guard Water Damage didn't parachute into Dexter 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 Dexter 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.
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.
Fresh paint over an old stain can hide the problem visually for a month or two, right up until the drywall paper backing gives out.
If a dehumidifier and open windows don't clear the smell within a day or two, there's an active moisture source that ventilation alone won't solve.
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.
Bubbling near a window frame frequently traces back to a failed seal letting water in gradually.
Dark spotting around grout lines or window frames is frequently the first visible sign of a developing moisture problem.
If more than one of these sounds familiar, it's worth a professional moisture check sooner rather than later.
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.
The equipment on our trucks scales up or down to the job, but the process — assess, extract, dry, verify, repair — doesn't change.
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.
Air movers and dehumidifiers get placed according to psychrometric readings taken at assessment, not a default layout used on every job regardless of conditions.
Our sewage cleanup protocol follows IICRC S500 guidelines start to finish, including isolation of the affected zone and disposal documentation.
Antimicrobial treatment on studs, subfloor, and other porous surfaces happens during the drying phase, especially anywhere that stayed wet more than 48 hours.
One contract from extraction through reconstruction means you're not managing two separate companies and two separate invoices.
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.
Real person, real questions, fast routing — the goal is getting a truck moving within minutes of hanging up.
Photo and moisture documentation happens before any equipment gets touched, which protects your insurance claim later.
Equipment placement follows the specific psychrometric numbers from assessment, not a generic pattern used on every job.
Final verification is where corners often get cut industry-wide; we treat it as mandatory.
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.
Every technician carries IICRC certification, and every crew works fully insured — documentation available whenever you want it.
A nearby crew isn't a slogan — it's the gap between drying equipment running in an hour versus half a day.
You get a written estimate before equipment turns on, not a surprise invoice after the fact.
If a drying target isn't hit on schedule, equipment stays on-site at no extra charge until the readings confirm it's dry.
If our readings don't hit a safe drying standard on schedule, equipment stays running at our cost until they do — that's the bar we hold ourselves to.
This isn't marketing copy — it's the actual checklist our crews sign off against before a job is marked complete.
Call +1-844-578-1604Our Dexter service radius covers 55926, with trucks positioned to reach any address quickly, not just the neighborhoods closest to a single office.
Coverage extends past the city core into the surrounding Dexter suburbs, so an outlying address isn't treated as a second-tier call.
"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 Dexter had it extracted and drying equipment running before I finished my coffee."
Renee A., Dexter"The daily moisture log gave me something concrete to look at instead of just being told to trust the process."
Owen D., Dexter"Professional from the first call to the final walkthrough, and they re-tested moisture before closing the job instead of eyeballing it."
Fatima J., Dexter"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., Dexter"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., Dexter"They sectioned off the wet area instead of shutting down the whole office during drying, which kept us operating almost normally."
Nathaniel W., Dexter"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., Dexter"Storm runoff got into our crawl space and the smell alone told us something was wrong. They found a failed vapor barrier and fixed the actual cause during the same visit."
Derek S., Dexter"Our upstairs bathroom leaked into the kitchen ceiling below and the crew traced it back to a failed wax ring on the toilet, not just patched the visible ceiling stain."
Melissa C., Dexter"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., Dexter
