Who We Are

A Local Crew, Not a Call Center

Ask a Basalt homeowner who's dealt with a burst pipe at 3am and, if they called us, they'll tell you the same thing: someone answered, and someone showed up. That's the whole model.

Local pricing means local pricing — our Basalt estimates reflect actual regional labor and material costs, not a national average that leaves you either overpaying or underinsured.

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.

Worth a Second Look

Signs Your Property Needs Structural Drying

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

A sudden increase in usage with no change in household habits is often the earliest sign of a slab leak, well before any visible water shows up.

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

Mold that returns after a bleach cleaning is a sign the moisture source behind it was never actually addressed.

Catching two or more of these signs at once usually means it's past time for a proper inspection.

Core Services

Everything a Structural Drying Job Needs, Under One Roof

Treating Structural Drying 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

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.

Structural Drying, Tracked With Real Numbers

We don't call a structure dry based on a visual check — the moisture meter has the final say before equipment comes down.

Category 3 & Sewage Cleanup

Our sewage cleanup protocol follows IICRC S500 guidelines start to finish, including isolation of the affected zone and disposal documentation.

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

Once moisture readings confirm the structure is dry, the same team that documented and dried the loss hands off directly into drywall, insulation, and flooring repair.

Content Pack-Out & Cleaning

Furniture, electronics, and documents get assessed on-site, with salvageable items cleaned and stored while the space dries.

How It Works

Our Structural Drying 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

Photo and moisture documentation happens before any equipment gets touched, which protects your insurance claim later.

Extraction, Then Drying

Standing water comes out first with commercial extraction equipment, then air movers and dehumidifiers go to work based on the readings just taken.

Verified Dry, Then Repaired

Moisture readings confirm the structure meets a safe drying standard before we hand over documentation and move into reconstruction.

Why Choose Us

What Sets Aqua Guard Water Damage Apart

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

Every technician carries IICRC certification, and every crew works fully insured — documentation available whenever you want it.

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

The number we quote is the number you pay, regardless of how long the drying cycle runs.

Backed by a Real Guarantee

Every job closes with a documented re-inspection, not a handshake and an invoice.

We Verify Before We Call It Done

If our readings don't hit a safe drying standard on schedule, equipment stays running at our cost until they do — that's the bar we hold ourselves to.

Technicians aren't rewarded for closing jobs quickly, which keeps the incentive pointed at actually finishing the drying right.

What Customers Tell Us Afterward

★★★★★

"I've dealt with contractors before who talk a big game and disappear. The crew here in Basalt actually showed up on time and stayed in touch through the whole drying process."

Renee A., Basalt
★★★★★

"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., Basalt
★★★★★

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

Fatima J., Basalt
★★★★★

"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., Basalt
★★★★★

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

Grace T., Basalt
★★★★★

"Working a commercial job around our business hours could have been a scheduling nightmare, but they made it simple."

Nathaniel W., Basalt
★★★★★

"The technician explained exactly which boards needed to go and which tested dry enough to keep, so we didn't overpay for the repair."

Bianca H., Basalt
★★★★★

"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., Basalt
★★★★★

"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., Basalt
★★★★★

"Being out of town when it happened was stressful enough — having a crew that could work directly with our property manager made it manageable."

FAQ

Questions We Hear Most Often

How fast can a Structural Drying technician arrive in Basalt, CO?▼
Average arrival time in Basalt runs well under 60 minutes for active emergencies, traffic and call volume permitting.
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?▼
We provide the documentation adjusters expect and are glad to communicate with your insurance company on your behalf.
How is contaminated water classified?▼
Water gets classified on arrival using IICRC S500 guidelines, which determines whether standard extraction or full contamination handling applies.
How long does drying usually take?▼
Timing depends on the materials affected and how long they stayed wet, tracked daily with moisture logs instead of an estimate.
Will drywall or flooring need to come out?▼
Only where materials can't be safely dried and sanitized — the goal is saving as much of the original structure as possible.
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?▼
If it's safe, shut off the water source, move valuables to a dry area, and stay clear of outlets near standing water until we arrive.
Do you handle commercial properties?▼
Commercial losses get the same extraction and drying protocol as residential work, just with larger equipment as needed.
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?▼
It helps to know roughly where the water's coming from and whether it looks clean or contaminated, though we'll walk you through it if you're not sure.
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?▼
In most cases yes, especially if the affected area can be isolated from the rest of the living space, though we'll walk you through any air quality considerations specific to your situation.
