When a pipe bursts or a storm backs up your drain lines, waiting on hold is the last thing you can afford. Our Lewiston-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 Lewiston basements, crawl spaces, and commercial units, and that hands-on history shows in how fast our crews assess a loss. We know which Lewiston 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 Lewiston 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 also carry direct experience working alongside insurance adjusters, so the documentation we generate on day one is already formatted the way most carriers expect to see it.
A stain that keeps reappearing after you paint over it is a signal, not a coincidence — the moisture source behind the wall hasn't been addressed and needs a moisture meter reading, not a fresh coat of paint. Repainting without finding the source just hides the problem for a few more weeks.
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.
An unexplained jump in your water bill is frequently the first sign of a slab leak or a failing supply line long before any visible water appears. Catching it at this stage is far cheaper than waiting for a visible flood.
Wallpaper that lifts at the seams after being fine for years is often a sign that humidity or a slow leak has changed the moisture level inside that wall.
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 Emergency Water Damage 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.
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.
Equipment placement isn't guesswork; it's calculated from psychrometric readings taken at the start of the job and adjusted daily as conditions change.
Blackwater jobs get treated with extra caution, since porous materials that touched contaminated water almost always need to be removed rather than dried in place.
If mold has already taken hold, our containment and remediation process isolates the affected zone with negative air pressure before any demolition begins, keeping spores from spreading to unaffected rooms.
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.
Specialized cleaning techniques can often save upholstery, electronics, and documents that look like a total loss at first glance, which keeps out-of-pocket replacement costs down.
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.
Standing water comes out first with truck-mount equipment, then air movers and dehumidifiers go to work based on the psychrometric numbers we recorded.
Final verification is where a lot of shortcuts get taken industry-wide — we treat it as mandatory, not optional.
We operate under proper licensing and insurance in every market we serve, with documentation available on request.
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.
We'd rather explain the cost clearly upfront than have that conversation after the job is already underway.
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.
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 55952 or one of the neighboring zip codes we cover, the same crew and the same response standard applies.
We track call volume by zip code across Lewiston to keep crew staffing matched to where emergencies actually happen most often.
"A pipe burst behind our water heater and the crew here in Lewiston 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., Lewiston"Our basement took on water during a storm and the crew classified it, extracted it, and had dehumidifiers running the same afternoon. The final invoice matched the upfront quote exactly."
Denise M., Lewiston"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., Lewiston"The reconstruction crew matched our original flooring almost perfectly after the water damage repair — you'd never know there was a leak."
Priya S., Lewiston"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., Lewiston"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., Lewiston"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., Lewiston"They explained the sump discharge issue causing our crawl space flooding in plain terms and fixed it as part of the same visit instead of scheduling a separate appointment."
Wendy K., Lewiston
