Who We Are

Licensed, Local, and Ready 24/7

Our Shelby technicians hold IICRC water restoration certifications and carry that training into every job, from a Category 1 clean-water leak to a Category 3 sewage backup. We're not a call center routing you to a random subcontractor; we're the crew that shows up.

Being local to Shelby means our estimators know the going rate for drywall and flooring replacement in your area, so the quote you get reflects your market instead of a national average that never quite matches your invoice.

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 Flood Damage Repair 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

Hardwood that's cupping at the edges or laminate that's separating at the seams is a classic sign of moisture intrusion from below, whether that's a slab leak or groundwater seepage. The longer it sits, the harder the flooring is to salvage.

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

Bubbling near a window or exterior wall frequently points to a flashing or seal failure letting water into the wall cavity a little at a time.

Visible Mold Growth

Dark spotting in grout lines or around window frames is often the first visible sign of a moisture problem that's been developing for weeks.

Our Core Services

Full-Service Flood Damage Repair, Start to Finish

We treat Flood Damage Repair as one continuous job rather than a series of handoffs — the crew that extracts the water is accountable for the drying results, and the drying results determine what reconstruction is actually needed.

Emergency Water Extraction

We prioritize extraction speed above everything else in the first hour, because every additional hour standing water sits raises the odds of secondary damage to subfloors and framing.

Structural Drying & Dehumidification

Equipment placement isn't guesswork; it's calculated from psychrometric readings taken at the start of the job and adjusted daily as conditions change.

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

Once structural drying is underway, we apply antimicrobial treatments to studs, subfloor, and other porous surfaces to stop mold colonies before they establish, especially in areas that stayed wet more than 48 hours.

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

Specialized cleaning techniques can often save upholstery, electronics, and documents that look like a total loss at first glance, which keeps out-of-pocket replacement costs down.

Our Process

How Our Flood Damage Repair 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

Standing water comes out first with truck-mount equipment, then air movers and dehumidifiers go to work based on the psychrometric numbers we recorded.

Verification & Repairs

Once moisture readings confirm the structure is dry, we hand you documentation and move into any needed reconstruction.

Why Choose Us

Why Property Owners Choose Aqua Guard Water Damage

Licensed & Insured

Every technician carries IICRC certification and our crews are fully insured for your protection on every job.

Fast Local Dispatch

A crew close by isn't a marketing line — it's the difference between drying equipment running in an hour versus waiting half a day.

Upfront Flat-Rate Pricing

We'd rather explain the cost clearly upfront than have that conversation after the job is already underway.

Satisfaction Guarantee

We stand behind every job with a documented re-inspection before we consider the work complete.

The Aqua Guard Water Damage Guarantee

We'd rather run drying equipment an extra day at our own cost than close out a job with a moisture reading we're not confident in.

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

★★★★★

"A pipe burst behind our water heater and the crew here in Shelby had extraction units running within 40 minutes of my call. They walked me through the moisture readings every day until it was fully dry."

James R., Shelby
★★★★★

"What impressed me most was the daily moisture log — I could actually see the numbers improving instead of just being told to trust the process."

Denise M., Shelby
★★★★★

"Professional from the first phone call to the final walkthrough. They re-tested moisture levels before closing the job instead of just eyeballing it."

Marcus T., Shelby
★★★★★

"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., Shelby
★★★★★

"We had a slow leak we didn't notice for weeks and the crew found moisture in places we never would have checked using thermal imaging."

Carlos V., Shelby
★★★★★

"They minimized business disruption by sectioning off the wet area instead of shutting down the whole space during drying."

Angela F., Shelby
★★★★★

"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., Shelby
★★★★★

"Storm runoff got into our crawl space and the smell alone told us something was wrong. The crew found the vapor barrier had failed and fixed the actual cause, not just the symptom."

Wendy K., Shelby
FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can a Flood Damage Repair technician arrive in Shelby, MI?▼
Average arrival time in Shelby is well under 60 minutes for active emergencies, though exact timing depends on traffic and current call volume.
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?▼
We follow IICRC standards, classifying water as Category 1 (clean), Category 2 (gray), or Category 3 (black/sewage) before choosing extraction and PPE protocols.
How long does structural drying typically take?▼
Most residential drying cycles run three to five days, verified with daily moisture readings rather than a fixed calendar guess.
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?▼
Yes, antimicrobial treatment is applied to affected porous materials as part of the standard drying process, especially after 48 hours of exposure.
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?▼
Commercial water damage gets the same extraction and drying protocol as residential work, scaled up with larger equipment as needed.
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.
