Gardena 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 Gardena operation on IICRC-certified technicians and commercial-grade equipment, not a subcontractor list we pull from when the phone rings.
Local pricing means local pricing — our Gardena 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.
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.
Fresh paint over an old stain can hide the problem visually for a month or two, right up until the drywall paper backing gives out.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Catching two or more of these signs at once usually means it's past time for a proper inspection.
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.
We treat extraction speed as the single biggest variable we control — every additional hour of standing water raises the odds of secondary damage.
We don't call a structure dry based on a visual check — the moisture meter has the final say before equipment comes down.
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.
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.
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.
Dispatch gathers just enough detail to load the right equipment before the truck leaves the lot.
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.
Every affected area gets re-tested before we call the job complete — no shortcuts on the sign-off.
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.
Licensing and insurance aren't paperwork we keep in a drawer; they're what let us stand behind the work if something doesn't go as planned.
A nearby crew isn't a slogan — it's the gap between drying equipment running in an hour versus half a day.
The number we quote is the number you pay, regardless of how long the drying cycle runs.
A guarantee only counts if it's backed by a second moisture reading, not just good intentions.
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 Gardena actually showed up on time and stayed in touch through the whole drying process."
Renee A., Gardena"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., Gardena"They didn't cut corners on the sanitization step even though it clearly slowed them down — with two kids in the house, that mattered to us."
Fatima J., Gardena"Every cost question got a straight answer, even the awkward ones, which is more than I can say for the last two contractors I dealt with."
Lucas P., Gardena"The thermal scan caught damage behind a cabinet that could have turned into a much bigger mold problem if it went unnoticed."
Grace T., Gardena"They sectioned off the wet area instead of shutting down the whole office during drying, which kept us operating almost normally."
Nathaniel W., Gardena"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., Gardena"They explained the crawl space drainage issue in plain terms instead of technical jargon, and fixed it on the spot rather than scheduling a separate trip."
Derek S., Gardena"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., Gardena"A dishwasher supply line failed while we were on vacation and came home to a soaked kitchen floor. They handled the extraction, drying, and coordination with our property manager without us having to fly back early."
Victor N., Gardena
