Who We Are

Licensed, Local, and Ready 24/7

Aqua Guard Water Damage has spent years pulling water out of Minot basements, crawl spaces, and commercial units, and that hands-on history shows in how fast our crews assess a loss. We know which Minot 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.

Every technician on our Minot roster is background-checked, licensed, and insured, and every truck is stocked with commercial-grade air movers, low-grain-refrigerant dehumidifiers, and antimicrobial treatment for contaminated water intrusion.

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.

Problem Awareness

Signs You Need Structural Drying Right Now

Water Stains or Discoloration

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.

Musty Odor That Won't Air Out

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.

Warped or Buckling Flooring

Tile that suddenly sounds hollow when you tap it often means the mortar bed underneath has been sitting in moisture long enough to lose adhesion. That hollow sound rarely resolves on its own.

Rising Water Bill With No Clear Cause

If your usage climbs but nothing in your household routine changed, a hidden leak behind a wall or under the foundation is worth investigating immediately, since slab leaks rarely announce themselves any other way.

Peeling Paint or Bubbling Wallpaper

Paint that bubbles or peels away from a wall, especially near baseboards, usually means moisture is pushing through from behind rather than a simple application problem.

Visible Mold Growth

Any visible mold, even a small patch in a corner or along a baseboard, means conditions behind that surface have supported growth for a while and the moisture source needs to be found, not just the mold wiped away.

Our Core Services

Every Structural Drying Solution Under One Roof

Our Structural Drying 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.

Emergency Water Extraction

Our crews arrive with truck-mount extraction units capable of pulling thousands of gallons per hour, using moisture meters to classify the water as Category 1, 2, or 3 before drying even starts.

Structural Drying & Dehumidification

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.

Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup

Category 3 blackwater intrusions require full PPE, controlled demolition of porous materials that can't be sanitized, and hospital-grade antimicrobial treatment before reconstruction begins.

Mold Prevention & Remediation

Because mold can establish in as little as 48 hours, our drying timeline is built around beating that window rather than treating mold prevention as an afterthought.

Reconstruction & Repairs

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.

Content Cleaning & Pack-Out

Furniture, documents, and electronics affected by water intrusion get assessed on-site, with salvageable items cleaned and stored while unsalvageable items are documented for your claim.

Our Process

How Our Structural Drying Response Works

Call Dispatch

A real person answers, gathers the details of your water loss, and routes the closest available crew immediately.

Rapid On-Site Assessment

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 & Drying

Extraction and drying run as one continuous process rather than two separate visits, which keeps the timeline tighter.

Verification & Repairs

We re-test every affected area before calling a job complete, then coordinate repairs so you're not left with an open punch list.

Why Choose Us

What Makes Aqua Guard Water Damage Different

Licensed & Insured

Insurance and licensing aren't just paperwork here — they're what let us stand behind the work if something doesn't go as planned.

Fast Local Dispatch

Trucks are staged regionally so a crew can typically reach you well before a national chain's call center even finishes your intake form.

Upfront Flat-Rate Pricing

You get a written estimate before work begins, not a surprise invoice after the drying equipment is already running.

Satisfaction Guarantee

A guarantee only means something if it's backed by a second set of moisture readings, not just a handshake at the end of the visit.

We Don't Leave Until the Job Is Verified Dry

Every job closes with documented moisture verification, because a guarantee that isn't backed by data isn't much of a guarantee.

Our technicians don't get paid faster by closing jobs early, which keeps the incentive aligned with actually finishing the drying properly.

Customer Reviews

What Our Customers Say

★★★★★

"The team here in Minot treated our emergency like it actually mattered, not like another ticket in a queue, and the drying documentation they left us was thorough enough to hand straight to our insurer."

James R., Minot
★★★★★

"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., Minot
★★★★★

"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., Minot
★★★★★

"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., Minot
★★★★★

"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., Minot
★★★★★

"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., Minot
★★★★★

"The tech explained exactly which boards needed to come out and which ones tested dry enough to keep, so we didn't pay to replace more than necessary."

Tyrone B., Minot
★★★★★

"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."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can a Structural Drying technician arrive in Minot, ND?
Our Minot crews typically reach an active water loss in under an hour, since trucks are staged locally rather than dispatched from a distant office.
What's the difference between clean water and gray water damage?
Category 1 water is sanitary at the source, while Category 2 water has picked up detergents, food particles, or other contaminants that call for more careful handling during extraction.
Do you move or store damaged belongings during the drying process?
We separate and stage contents away from the wet zone during extraction and drying, then help coordinate cleaning for anything that can be salvaged.
What information should I have ready when I call?
Having the general location of the water and a rough timeline ready speeds up dispatch, but don't delay calling just to gather details — we can get that information on the way.
Do you provide upfront pricing?
Yes, every job starts with a written flat-rate estimate before any equipment is turned on, so there are no surprise line items later.
What emergency services are available?
We handle 24/7 emergency water extraction, structural drying, sewage cleanup, mold prevention, and reconstruction under one call.
Do you work directly with insurance companies?
Yes, we document every job with photos and moisture logs formatted for insurance claims and can communicate directly with your adjuster.
How do you classify contaminated water?
Water gets classified on arrival using IICRC S500 guidelines, which determines whether standard extraction or full contamination protocols apply.
How long does structural drying typically take?
Drying time depends on the materials affected and how long they were wet, but we track it with daily moisture logs instead of estimating blindly.
Will you need to remove drywall or flooring?
We remove only what moisture readings and contamination levels require, not as a default step, to keep your repair costs down.
Can you help prevent mold after a leak?
Mold prevention is built into our drying protocol, not sold as an add-on, since materials wet more than two days are at real risk.
Do you offer service outside normal business hours?
Yes, emergencies are handled around the clock — the same crew structure that answers at 2pm answers at 2am.
What should I do while waiting for the crew to arrive?
If it's safe, shut off the water source, move valuables to a dry area, and avoid using electrical outlets near standing water until we arrive.
Do you handle commercial properties?
Yes, we service both residential and commercial properties, with equipment scaled to the size of the loss.
Is a small leak worth calling about?
A small leak left untreated is exactly how hidden mold problems start, so it's worth a moisture check even if the visible damage looks minor.
