When a pipe bursts or a storm backs up your drain lines, waiting on hold is the last thing you can afford. Our Dassel-based crews carry moisture meters and truck-mount extraction equipment on every rig so the drying process starts the moment we knock on your door.

Aqua Guard Water Damage has spent years pulling water out of Dassel basements, crawl spaces, and commercial units, and that hands-on history shows in how fast our crews assess a loss. We know which Dassel 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 Dassel 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.
Beyond the technical certifications, our crews are trained to communicate clearly under pressure, because a homeowner dealing with a flooded home deserves plain answers, not jargon.
Ceiling stains near a bathroom or kitchen almost always trace back to a plumbing failure rather than a roof leak, which means the source is often closer and easier to fix than homeowners assume.
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.
Hardwood that's cupping at the edges or laminate that's separating at the seams is a classic sign of moisture intrusion from below, whether that's a slab leak or groundwater seepage. The longer it sits, the harder the flooring is to salvage.
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.
We treat Flood Damage Repair as one continuous job rather than a series of handoffs — the crew that extracts the water is accountable for the drying results, and the drying results determine what reconstruction is actually needed.
We prioritize extraction speed above everything else in the first hour, because every additional hour standing water sits raises the odds of secondary damage to subfloors and framing.
We place industrial air movers and low-grain-refrigerant dehumidifiers based on psychrometric readings, then log moisture levels daily until every affected material returns to a safe drying standard.
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.
Once the structure tests dry, our reconstruction team handles drywall, insulation, flooring, and trim so you're not managing a second contractor after the restoration crew leaves.
We inventory and pack out contents that need to leave the affected area during drying, then coordinate their return once the space is verified dry and repairs are complete.
You call +1-844-234-5373 and speak with a live dispatcher, not a voicemail system — we ask a few quick questions about the source and severity so the crew arrives prepared.
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.
Insurance and licensing aren't just paperwork here — they're what let us stand behind the work if something doesn't go as planned.
A crew close by isn't a marketing line — it's the difference between drying equipment running in an hour versus waiting half a day.
You get a written estimate before work begins, not a surprise invoice after the drying equipment is already running.
We stand behind every job with a documented re-inspection before we consider the work complete.
We'd rather run drying equipment an extra day at our own cost than close out a job with a moisture reading we're not confident in.
Our technicians don't get paid faster by closing jobs early, which keeps the incentive aligned with actually finishing the drying properly.
Call +1-844-234-5373Whether your address falls in 55325 or one of the neighboring zip codes we cover, the same crew and the same response standard applies.
Coverage isn't limited to the city center — our Dassel routes extend out to the surrounding suburbs so outlying addresses aren't treated as an afterthought.
"A pipe burst behind our water heater and the crew here in Dassel 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., Dassel"They caught mold starting behind our drywall before it spread and contained it properly instead of just painting over the problem like a previous contractor did."
Denise M., Dassel"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., Dassel"Every question I asked got a straight answer, even the ones about cost, which is rare after dealing with two other contractors who kept dodging the pricing conversation."
Priya S., Dassel"Drying logs were shared with us daily so we always knew exactly where the job stood, not just a vague 'it's drying' update."
Carlos V., Dassel"Coordinating a commercial job around our operating hours could have been a nightmare, but their crew worked around our schedule without us having to ask twice."
Angela F., Dassel"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., Dassel"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., Dassel
