A flooded basement doesn't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Aqua Guard Water Damage keeps trucks staged around Dexter so a licensed technician can be pulling standing water within the hour, not scheduling you for next Tuesday.

Aqua Guard Water Damage has spent years pulling water out of Dexter basements, crawl spaces, and commercial units, and that hands-on history shows in how fast our crews assess a loss. We know which Dexter neighborhoods sit on older clay pipe, which developments have a history of sump failures, and which zip codes flood first when storm drains back up.
Being local to Dexter 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.
Yellow-brown rings on your ceiling or walls almost always mean water has been sitting behind the surface longer than you think, and the drywall paper backing is likely already feeding mold growth. Waiting to see if the stain spreads only gives moisture more time to travel further into the structure.
A persistent musty smell in a basement or bathroom usually means microbial growth has already started somewhere you can't see, often inside wall cavities or under flooring. Air fresheners will mask it temporarily but won't touch the actual source.
Tile that suddenly sounds hollow when you tap it often means the mortar bed underneath has been sitting in moisture long enough to lose adhesion. That hollow sound rarely resolves on its own.
A running-water sound when every fixture in the house is off is a strong sign of a hidden leak feeding your rising bill.
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.
Mold that returns after cleaning with bleach is a sign the underlying moisture source was never addressed, since surface cleaning does nothing for saturated material behind the wall.
Our Burst Pipe Cleanup 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.
Our crews arrive with truck-mount extraction units capable of pulling thousands of gallons per hour, using moisture meters to classify the water as Category 1, 2, or 3 before drying even starts.
Equipment placement isn't guesswork; it's calculated from psychrometric readings taken at the start of the job and adjusted daily as conditions change.
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.
Once structural drying is underway, we apply antimicrobial treatments to studs, subfloor, and other porous surfaces to stop mold colonies before they establish, especially in areas that stayed wet more than 48 hours.
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.
Furniture, documents, and electronics affected by water intrusion get assessed on-site, with salvageable items cleaned and stored while unsalvageable items are documented for your claim.
A real person answers, gathers the details of your water loss, and routes the closest available crew immediately.
Technicians arrive with moisture meters and thermal cameras to map exactly how far the water has traveled, including inside walls and under flooring where you can't see it.
Extraction and drying run as one continuous process rather than two separate visits, which keeps the timeline tighter.
We re-test every affected area before calling a job complete, then coordinate repairs so you're not left with an open punch list.
We operate under proper licensing and insurance in every market we serve, with documentation available on request.
Trucks are staged regionally so a crew can typically reach you well before a national chain's call center even finishes your intake form.
You get a written estimate before work begins, not a surprise invoice after the drying equipment is already running.
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.
If our moisture readings don't hit a safe drying standard on schedule, we keep equipment on site at no additional cost until they do — that's the standard we hold ourselves to.
Our technicians don't get paid faster by closing jobs early, which keeps the incentive aligned with actually finishing the drying properly.
Call +1-844-234-5373Our Dexter coverage area spans 4930, with trucks positioned to reach any address in the service radius quickly.
We track call volume by zip code across Dexter to keep crew staffing matched to where emergencies actually happen most often.
"A pipe burst behind our water heater and the crew here in Dexter had extraction units running within 40 minutes of my call. They walked me through the moisture readings every day until it was fully dry."
James R., Dexter"What impressed me most was the daily moisture log — I could actually see the numbers improving instead of just being told to trust the process."
Denise M., Dexter"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., Dexter"The reconstruction crew matched our original flooring almost perfectly after the water damage repair — you'd never know there was a leak."
Priya S., Dexter"The thermal imaging inspection found damage behind a cabinet we never would have thought to check, which probably saved us from a much bigger mold problem down the road."
Carlos V., Dexter"Our commercial unit flooded overnight and they had industrial equipment running before our staff arrived for the morning shift."
Angela F., Dexter"A cracked supply line under the kitchen sink went unnoticed for days and by the time we called, the subfloor was saturated. The crew pulled the damaged material and had drying equipment running within the hour."
Tyrone B., Dexter"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., Dexter
