Como 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.

Written estimate, no hidden line items
IICRC-certified technicians on every truck
We run our Como operation on IICRC-certified technicians and commercial-grade equipment, not a subcontractor list we pull from when the phone rings.
Every Como 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 Como home.
Homeowners dealing with a flood are stressed enough without technical jargon, so we train our crews to explain the process in plain terms from the first phone call.
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 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 shifts slightly when you walk on it, even subtly, is worth a moisture reading before it gets worse.
The sound of running water when every fixture in the house is off is one of the more reliable early warnings of a hidden leak.
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.
Dark spotting around grout lines or window frames is frequently the first visible sign of a developing moisture problem.
If more than one of these sounds familiar, it's worth a professional moisture check sooner rather than later.
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.
Daily drying logs track humidity and surface moisture at every checkpoint, giving you documented proof of progress instead of a verbal 'it's getting there.'
Blackwater intrusions call for full PPE, controlled removal of porous materials that can't be sanitized, and hospital-grade disinfection before any reconstruction starts.
If mold has already started, containment with negative air pressure goes up before any demolition begins, so spores don't travel to unaffected rooms.
Reconstruction starts from the actual drying documentation, not a fresh guess, which keeps the repair scope accurate.
Specialized content cleaning often saves items that looked like a total loss at first glance, which keeps replacement costs off your claim.
This is the same sequence every job follows, whether it's a single flooded room or a full commercial loss.
Real person, real questions, fast routing — the goal is getting a truck moving within minutes of hanging up.
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.
Equipment placement follows the specific psychrometric numbers from assessment, not a generic pattern used on every job.
Final verification is where corners often get cut industry-wide; we treat it as mandatory.
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.
Every job closes with a documented re-inspection, not a handshake and an invoice.
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.

"I've dealt with contractors before who talk a big game and disappear. The crew here in Como actually showed up on time and stayed in touch through the whole drying process."
Renee A., Como"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., Como"The sewage backup in our basement bathroom got the full PPE-and-disinfection treatment, and they walked me through exactly why certain materials had to go."
Fatima J., Como"Fast response and clear pricing, and they handled the back-and-forth with my insurance adjuster directly, which saved me a genuinely stressful week."
Lucas P., Como"We had a slow leak for weeks without noticing, and thermal imaging found moisture in a spot we never would have checked ourselves."
Grace T., Como"Working a commercial job around our business hours could have been a scheduling nightmare, but they made it simple."
Nathaniel W., Como"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., Como"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., Como"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., Como"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., Como
