Who We Are

The Team Behind the Truck

We run our Cheraw operation on IICRC-certified technicians and commercial-grade equipment, not a subcontractor list we pull from when the phone rings.

Every Cheraw truck carries moisture meters, thermal cameras, and both standard and low-grain-refrigerant dehumidifiers, because a one-size drying setup doesn't work for every kind of Cheraw home.

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.

Worth a Second Look

Signs Your Property Needs Emergency Water Damage

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.

A Ceiling Stain That Keeps Coming Back

A ring that reappears within weeks of a fresh coat of paint means the moisture source is still active, and it's usually a plumbing line, not a roof issue, especially near bathrooms.

A Basement That Smells Different Than It Used To

If a dehumidifier and open windows don't clear the smell within a day or two, there's an active moisture source that ventilation alone won't solve.

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

Catching a hidden leak through the water bill is far cheaper than waiting for it to surface as a flooded room.

Paint or Wallpaper Lifting Away From the Wall

Bubbling paint near a baseboard or exterior wall usually means moisture is pushing through from behind rather than a simple application defect.

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.

If more than one of these sounds familiar, it's worth a professional moisture check sooner rather than later.

Core Services

One Crew, Every Stage of Emergency Water Damage

Treating Emergency Water Damage as a single continuous job, rather than a series of handoffs, is what keeps timelines shorter and documentation consistent.

The equipment on our trucks scales up or down to the job, but the process — assess, extract, dry, verify, repair — doesn't change.

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

Daily drying logs track humidity and surface moisture at every checkpoint, giving you documented proof of progress instead of a verbal 'it's getting there.'

Category 3 & Sewage Cleanup

Blackwater intrusions call for full PPE, controlled removal of porous materials that can't be sanitized, and hospital-grade disinfection before any reconstruction starts.

Mold Prevention Built Into the Drying Plan

We treat the 48-hour mold window as a deadline for our own drying timeline, not a talking point.

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

Furniture, electronics, and documents get assessed on-site, with salvageable items cleaned and stored while the space dries.

How It Works

Our Emergency Water Damage Response, Step by Step

Four steps, no guesswork — here's exactly what happens between your call and a verified-dry structure.

Dispatch Picks Up

Dispatch gathers just enough detail to load the right equipment before the truck leaves the lot.

Technician Maps the Damage

Skipping or rushing this step is how hidden moisture pockets turn into a mold problem months down the line.

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

What Sets Aqua Guard Water Damage Apart

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

We'll show you the credentials before we show you the invoice, if that's what puts you at ease.

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

We'd rather have the pricing conversation upfront than after the job's already underway.

Backed by a Real Guarantee

If a drying target isn't hit on schedule, equipment stays on-site at no extra charge until the readings confirm it's dry.

Dry, Documented, Guaranteed

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.

What Customers Tell Us Afterward

★★★★★

"Our water heater gave out overnight and by the time I found the pool of water it had already crept under the cabinets. The crew here in Cheraw had it extracted and drying equipment running before I finished my coffee."

Renee A., Cheraw
★★★★★

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

Owen D., Cheraw
★★★★★

"Professional from the first call to the final walkthrough, and they re-tested moisture before closing the job instead of eyeballing it."

Fatima J., Cheraw
★★★★★

"Fast response and clear pricing, and they handled the back-and-forth with my insurance adjuster directly, which saved me a genuinely stressful week."

Lucas P., Cheraw
★★★★★

"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., Cheraw
★★★★★

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

Nathaniel W., Cheraw
★★★★★

"The technician explained exactly which boards needed to go and which tested dry enough to keep, so we didn't overpay for the repair."

Bianca H., Cheraw
★★★★★

"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., Cheraw
★★★★★

"They found the actual source of the leak instead of just drying the surface damage, which saved us from the same problem happening again in a month."

Melissa C., Cheraw
★★★★★

"Being out of town when it happened was stressful enough — having a crew that could work directly with our property manager made it manageable."

FAQ

Questions We Hear Most Often

How fast can a Emergency Water Damage technician arrive in Cheraw, SC?▼
Crews staged inside Cheraw typically reach an active water loss in under an hour, since trucks aren't dispatched from a distant office.
Do you provide upfront pricing?▼
We quote upfront based on the assessment, and that number is what you pay regardless of how long drying takes.
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?▼
We follow IICRC standards: Category 1 is clean, Category 2 is gray water with some contamination, and Category 3 is black or sewage water requiring full protocols.
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.
