Who We Are

The Team Behind the Truck

Aqua Guard Water Damage didn't parachute into Johnson City with a rented truck and a stock script. Our technicians have worked this market long enough to know which neighborhoods sit low, which ones have older cast-iron plumbing, and which zip codes call in during every heavy storm.

Our Johnson City dispatch desk is staffed around the clock by people, not an automated queue, which matters most at exactly the hour you're calling.

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

A hollow sound from tile that used to sound solid usually means the mortar bed lost adhesion from sustained moisture underneath.

A Water Bill That Jumped for No Reason

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.

Paint or Wallpaper Lifting Away From the Wall

Bubbling near a window frame frequently traces back to a failed seal letting water in gradually.

Any Visible Mold, Even a Small Patch

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.

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

Moisture meters classify the water as Category 1, 2, or 3 on arrival, which determines whether it's a straightforward extraction or a full contamination protocol.

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

Materials that had direct contact with contaminated water almost always come out rather than get dried in place — that's a safety call, not a cost-cutting one.

Mold Prevention Built Into the Drying Plan

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 Under the Same Contract

Reconstruction starts from the actual drying documentation, not a fresh guess, which keeps the repair scope accurate.

Content Pack-Out & Cleaning

We inventory and relocate contents that need to leave the affected area, then coordinate their return once the space is verified dry.

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

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.

Extraction, Then Drying

Equipment placement follows the specific psychrometric numbers from assessment, not a generic pattern used on every job.

Verified Dry, Then Repaired

Every affected area gets re-tested before we call the job complete — no shortcuts on the sign-off.

Why Choose Us

The Aqua Guard Water Damage Standard

None of these four things matter in isolation — it's the combination of licensing, speed, honest pricing, and a real guarantee that actually changes the outcome of a water emergency.

Licensed & Insured

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.

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.

Coverage

Aqua Guard Water Damage routes crews across Johnson City and its surrounding zip codes, including 13790, so response times hold steady no matter which side of town the call comes from.

Coverage extends past the city core into the surrounding Johnson City suburbs, so an outlying address isn't treated as a second-tier call.

Reviews

What Customers Tell Us Afterward

★★★★★

"What stood out was how calm the technician stayed while explaining a genuinely stressful situation — that mattered more than I expected."

Renee A., Johnson City

★★★★★

"The daily moisture log gave me something concrete to look at instead of just being told to trust the process."

Owen D., Johnson City

★★★★★

"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., Johnson City

★★★★★

"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., Johnson City

★★★★★

"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., Johnson City

★★★★★

"They sectioned off the wet area instead of shutting down the whole office during drying, which kept us operating almost normally."

Nathaniel W., Johnson City

★★★★★

"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., Johnson City

★★★★★

"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., Johnson City

★★★★★

"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., Johnson City

★★★★★

"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., Johnson City

FAQ

Questions We Hear Most Often

How fast can a Structural Drying technician arrive in Johnson City, NY?▼

Average arrival time in Johnson City 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?▼

We remove only what the moisture readings and contamination level require, not as a default step, to keep repair costs down.

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?▼

A rough location and timeline speed up dispatch, but don't wait to call just to gather details — we can get that on the way.

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?▼

It depends on the extent of the damage and whether contamination is involved, but many residential jobs allow the household to stay while drying equipment runs.
