Who We Are

Built On Certifications, Not Just a Logo

We run our Prior Lake operation on IICRC-certified technicians and commercial-grade equipment, not a subcontractor list we pull from when the phone rings.

Every Prior Lake truck carries moisture meters, thermal cameras, and both standard and low-grain-refrigerant dehumidifiers, because a one-size drying setup doesn't work for every kind of Prior Lake home.

Ongoing training matters more to us than a certificate on the wall — drying standards and equipment change, and our crews train against the current standard, not the one from five years ago.

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

Wallpaper that suddenly lifts at the seams after holding fine for years often signals a change in the humidity or moisture level inside that wall cavity.

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.

If more than one of these sounds familiar, it's worth a professional moisture check sooner rather than later.

Core Services

The Full Water Removal Process, Start to Finish

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

Every service below gets the same documentation standard, whether it's a single wet closet or a full commercial loss.

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

Air movers and dehumidifiers get placed according to psychrometric readings taken at assessment, not a default layout used on every job regardless of conditions.

Category 3 & Sewage Cleanup

Blackwater intrusions call for full PPE, controlled removal of porous materials that can't be sanitized, and hospital-grade disinfection before any reconstruction starts.

Mold Prevention Built Into the Drying Plan

Antimicrobial treatment on studs, subfloor, and other porous surfaces happens during the drying phase, especially anywhere that stayed wet more than 48 hours.

Reconstruction Under the Same Contract

Reconstruction starts from the actual drying documentation, not a fresh guess, which keeps the repair scope accurate.

Content Pack-Out & Cleaning

We inventory and relocate contents that need to leave the affected area, then coordinate their return once the space is verified dry.

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

A live dispatcher, not a voicemail tree, takes your call and asks a few quick questions about the source and severity so the crew rolls out prepared.

Technician Maps the Damage

Skipping or rushing this step is how hidden moisture pockets turn into a mold problem months down the line.

Extraction, Then Drying

Extraction and drying run as one continuous process rather than two separate scheduled visits.

Verified Dry, Then Repaired

Every affected area gets re-tested before we call the job complete — no shortcuts on the sign-off.

Why Choose Us

Why Locals Call Aqua Guard Water Damage First

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.

Licensed & Insured

We'll show you the credentials before we show you the invoice, if that's what puts you at ease.

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

A guarantee only counts if it's backed by a second moisture reading, not just good intentions.

The Aqua Guard Water Damage Promise

We'd rather run a dehumidifier an extra day on our dime than sign off on a reading we're not confident in.

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 Prior Lake had it extracted and drying equipment running before I finished my coffee."

Renee A., Prior Lake
★★★★★

"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., Prior Lake
★★★★★

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

Fatima J., Prior Lake
★★★★★

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

Lucas P., Prior Lake
★★★★★

"Getting a daily drying log meant we always knew where the job stood instead of a vague verbal update."

Grace T., Prior Lake
★★★★★

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

Nathaniel W., Prior Lake
★★★★★

"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., Prior Lake
★★★★★

"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., Prior Lake
★★★★★

"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., Prior Lake
★★★★★

"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., Prior Lake
FAQ

Questions We Hear Most Often

How fast can a Water Removal technician arrive in Prior Lake, MN?▼
Crews staged inside Prior Lake typically reach an active water loss in under an hour, since trucks aren't dispatched from a distant office.
Do you provide upfront pricing?▼
Yes — every job starts with a written flat-rate estimate before any equipment turns on, so there's no surprise line item later.
What emergency services do you offer?▼
One call gets you extraction, drying, contaminated water cleanup, and the reconstruction that follows, coordinated by one crew.
Do you work with insurance companies directly?▼
Yes, we document every job with photos and moisture logs formatted for insurance claims and can speak with your adjuster directly.
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?▼
Most residential drying cycles run three to five days, confirmed with daily moisture readings rather than a fixed calendar guess.
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?▼
Turn off the water supply if you can safely reach it, and avoid rooms with standing water near electrical panels or outlets.
Do you handle commercial properties?▼
Yes, we service both residential and commercial jobs, scaling equipment to the size of the loss.
Is it worth calling about a small leak?▼
A small leak left alone is exactly how hidden mold problems start, so it's worth a moisture check even if the visible damage looks minor.
What information should I have ready when I call?▼
A rough location and timeline speed up dispatch, but don't wait to call just to gather details — we can get that on the way.
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.
