There's a specific kind of dread that comes with standing water spreading across a Palmetto living room floor. We're built to shorten that window between the panic and the fix.

Ask a Palmetto 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.
Our Palmetto dispatch desk is staffed around the clock by people, not an automated queue, which matters most at exactly the hour you're calling.
We also keep documentation formatted the way insurance adjusters actually want to see it, since most of our jobs end up crossing an adjuster's desk at some point.
Water damage rarely starts as a dramatic flood — it usually starts small, and these are the signs worth acting on before the damage spreads further.
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 smell that gets stronger after rain is a strong hint that groundwater or a foundation crack is letting moisture in during wet weather.
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 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.
Bubbling near a window frame frequently traces back to a failed seal letting water in gradually.
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.
Bouncing between an extraction company, a drying company, and a repair contractor is how small jobs turn into weeks-long headaches — we keep all three under one roof on purpose.
Every service below gets the same documentation standard, whether it's a single wet closet or a full commercial loss.
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.
We don't call a structure dry based on a visual check — the moisture meter has the final say before equipment comes down.
Our sewage cleanup protocol follows IICRC S500 guidelines start to finish, including isolation of the affected zone and disposal documentation.
Antimicrobial treatment on studs, subfloor, and other porous surfaces happens during the drying phase, especially anywhere that stayed wet more than 48 hours.
One contract from extraction through reconstruction means you're not managing two separate companies and two separate invoices.
Furniture, electronics, and documents get assessed on-site, with salvageable items cleaned and stored while the space dries.
Four steps, no guesswork — here's exactly what happens between your call and a verified-dry structure.
Real person, real questions, fast routing — the goal is getting a truck moving within minutes of hanging up.
Photo and moisture documentation happens before any equipment gets touched, which protects your insurance claim later.
Standing water comes out first with commercial extraction equipment, then air movers and dehumidifiers go to work based on the readings just taken.
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.
We'd rather have the pricing conversation upfront than after the job's already underway.
If a drying target isn't hit on schedule, equipment stays on-site at no extra charge until the readings confirm it's dry.
Every job closes with documented moisture verification, because a promise without data behind it isn't much of a promise.
The standard doesn't change based on job size — a single bathroom flood gets the same sign-off criteria as a full commercial loss.

"I've dealt with contractors before who talk a big game and disappear. The crew here in Palmetto actually showed up on time and stayed in touch through the whole drying process."
Renee A., Palmetto"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., Palmetto"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., Palmetto"The reconstruction crew matched our original flooring almost exactly after the repair — you'd never guess there was ever a leak."
Lucas P., Palmetto"The thermal scan caught damage behind a cabinet that could have turned into a much bigger mold problem if it went unnoticed."
Grace T., Palmetto"Our office flooded overnight and industrial equipment was already running before our staff arrived for the morning shift."
Nathaniel W., Palmetto"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., Palmetto"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., Palmetto"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., Palmetto"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., Palmetto
