Cherry Valley sits on a mix of older plumbing and newer builds, and our crew has pulled water out of both, which is why the truck that shows up already has the right extraction head for your situation.

IICRC-certified technicians on every truck
We run our Cherry Valley operation on IICRC-certified technicians and commercial-grade equipment, not a subcontractor list we pull from when the phone rings.
Our Cherry Valley dispatch desk is staffed around the clock by people, not an automated queue, which matters most at exactly the hour you're calling.
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.
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.
A hollow sound from tile that used to sound solid usually means the mortar bed lost adhesion from sustained moisture underneath.
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 paint near a baseboard or exterior wall usually means moisture is pushing through from behind rather than a simple application defect.
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.
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.
We don't call a structure dry based on a visual check — the moisture meter has the final say before equipment comes down.
Materials that had direct contact with contaminated water almost always come out rather than get dried in place — that's a safety call, not a cost-cutting one.
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.
Specialized content cleaning often saves items that looked like a total loss at first glance, which keeps replacement costs off your claim.
Four steps, no guesswork — here's exactly what happens between your call and a verified-dry structure.
Dispatch gathers just enough detail to load the right equipment before the truck leaves the lot.
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 and drying run as one continuous process rather than two separate scheduled visits.
Moisture readings confirm the structure meets a safe drying standard before we hand over documentation and move into reconstruction.
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.
Shorter drive times matter most in the first hour after a loss, which is exactly when local staging pays off.
You get a written estimate before equipment turns on, not a surprise invoice after the fact.
A guarantee only counts if it's backed by a second moisture reading, not just good intentions.
We'd rather run a dehumidifier an extra day on our dime than sign off on a reading we're not confident in.
The standard doesn't change based on job size — a single bathroom flood gets the same sign-off criteria as a full commercial loss.
Call +1-844-578-1604Whether your address sits in 1611 or a neighboring zip, the same crew and the same response standard applies.
Coverage extends past the city core into the surrounding Cherry Valley suburbs, so an outlying address isn't treated as a second-tier call.
"I've dealt with contractors before who talk a big game and disappear. The crew here in Cherry Valley actually showed up on time and stayed in touch through the whole drying process."
Renee A., Cherry Valley"The daily moisture log gave me something concrete to look at instead of just being told to trust the process."
Owen D., Cherry Valley"Professional from the first call to the final walkthrough, and they re-tested moisture before closing the job instead of eyeballing it."
Fatima J., Cherry Valley"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., Cherry Valley"Getting a daily drying log meant we always knew where the job stood instead of a vague verbal update."
Grace T., Cherry Valley"Working a commercial job around our business hours could have been a scheduling nightmare, but they made it simple."
Nathaniel W., Cherry Valley"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., Cherry Valley"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., Cherry Valley"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., Cherry Valley"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., Cherry Valley
