Who We Are

Licensed, Local, and Ready 24/7

Aqua Guard Water Damage built its Boulder operation around one standard: arrive fast, document everything with moisture readings and thermal imaging, and communicate the drying plan in plain language before we touch a single wall.

Every technician on our Boulder roster is background-checked, licensed, and insured, and every truck is stocked with commercial-grade air movers, low-grain-refrigerant dehumidifiers, and antimicrobial treatment for contaminated water intrusion.

Beyond the technical certifications, our crews are trained to communicate clearly under pressure, because a homeowner dealing with a flooded home deserves plain answers, not jargon.

Problem Awareness

Signs You Need Structural Drying Right Now

Water Stains or Discoloration

A stain that keeps reappearing after you paint over it is a signal, not a coincidence — the moisture source behind the wall hasn't been addressed and needs a moisture meter reading, not a fresh coat of paint. Repainting without finding the source just hides the problem for a few more weeks.

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

Any visible mold, even a small patch in a corner or along a baseboard, means conditions behind that surface have supported growth for a while and the moisture source needs to be found, not just the mold wiped away.

Our Core Services

Every Structural Drying Solution Under One Roof

Our Structural Drying process covers every stage of a water loss, from the first extraction pass to the final coat of paint, so you're never left coordinating separate contractors mid-project.

Emergency Water Extraction

Standing water gets removed with commercial extraction equipment first, then we run moisture readings across every affected surface so the drying plan targets what's actually still wet, not what looks dry on the surface.

Structural Drying & Dehumidification

Drying logs track humidity, surface moisture, and airflow at every checkpoint, so you get documented proof the structure is dry before we close out the job — useful for your insurance claim too.

Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup

Our sewage cleanup protocol follows IICRC S500 contamination standards, isolating the affected area, removing unsalvageable materials, and disinfecting every surface that had contact with blackwater.

Mold Prevention & Remediation

If mold has already taken hold, our containment and remediation process isolates the affected zone with negative air pressure before any demolition begins, keeping spores from spreading to unaffected rooms.

Reconstruction & Repairs

The same team that documented the damage and dried the structure hands off directly to reconstruction, which keeps the whole timeline shorter and the paperwork simpler.

Content Cleaning & Pack-Out

We inventory and pack out contents that need to leave the affected area during drying, then coordinate their return once the space is verified dry and repairs are complete.

Our Process

How Our Structural Drying 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

Final verification is where a lot of shortcuts get taken industry-wide — we treat it as mandatory, not optional.

Why Choose Us

What Makes Aqua Guard Water Damage Different

Licensed & Insured

We operate under proper licensing and insurance in every market we serve, with documentation available on request.

Fast Local Dispatch

Local staging means shorter drive times, which matters most in the first hour after a water loss.

Upfront Flat-Rate Pricing

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

Satisfaction Guarantee

If a drying target isn't met on the first pass, we extend equipment placement at no extra charge until moisture readings confirm the structure is dry.

We Don't Leave Until the Job Is Verified Dry

Every job closes with documented moisture verification, because a guarantee that isn't backed by data isn't much of a guarantee.

That same standard applies whether it's a single flooded bathroom or a full commercial loss — the sign-off criteria don't change based on job size.

Customer Reviews

What Our Customers Say

★★★★★

"The team here in Boulder treated our emergency like it actually mattered, not like another ticket in a queue, and the drying documentation they left us was thorough enough to hand straight to our insurer."

James R., Boulder
★★★★★

"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., Boulder
★★★★★

"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., Boulder
★★★★★

"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., Boulder
★★★★★

"The thermal imaging inspection found damage behind a cabinet we never would have thought to check, which probably saved us from a much bigger mold problem down the road."

Carlos V., Boulder
★★★★★

"Our commercial unit flooded overnight and they had industrial equipment running before our staff arrived for the morning shift."

Angela F., Boulder
★★★★★

"A cracked supply line under the kitchen sink went unnoticed for days and by the time we called, the subfloor was saturated. The crew pulled the damaged material and had drying equipment running within the hour."

Tyrone B., Boulder
★★★★★

"They explained the sump discharge issue causing our crawl space flooding in plain terms and fixed it as part of the same visit instead of scheduling a separate appointment."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can a Structural Drying technician arrive in Boulder, CO?
Average arrival time in Boulder 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?
Clean water (Category 1) comes from a sanitary source like a supply line; gray water (Category 2) carries some contamination, such as from a washing machine or dishwasher discharge.
Do you move or store damaged belongings during the drying process?
Yes, we can relocate salvageable contents out of the affected area so drying equipment has clear access and your belongings aren't sitting in a wet environment.
What information should I have ready when I call?
It helps to know roughly where the water is coming from, how long it's been an issue, and whether the water looks clean or contaminated, though we can walk you through it if you're not sure.
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?
Our emergency line covers extraction, drying, contaminated water cleanup, and the reconstruction that follows, all coordinated by one crew.
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?
Drying time depends on the materials affected and how long they were wet, but we track it with daily moisture logs instead of estimating blindly.
Will you need to remove drywall or flooring?
Only where materials can't be safely dried and sanitized — our goal is to save as much of the original structure as possible.
Can you help prevent mold after a leak?
Mold prevention is built into our drying protocol, not sold as an add-on, since materials wet more than two days are at real risk.
Do you offer service outside normal business hours?
Our dispatch line runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays, because water damage doesn't wait for business hours.
What should I do while waiting for the crew to arrive?
Turn off the water supply if you can locate it safely, and stay out of rooms with standing water near electrical outlets or panels.
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.
