San Marino sits on a mix of older plumbing and newer builds, and our crew has pulled water out of both, which is why the truck that shows up already has the right extraction head for your situation.

Written estimate, no hidden line items
IICRC-certified technicians on every truck
We run our San Marino operation on IICRC-certified technicians and commercial-grade equipment, not a subcontractor list we pull from when the phone rings.
Every San Marino 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 San Marino home.
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.
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.
Fresh paint over an old stain can hide the problem visually for a month or two, right up until the drywall paper backing gives out.
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.
A hollow sound from tile that used to sound solid usually means the mortar bed lost adhesion from sustained moisture underneath.
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.
Wallpaper that suddenly lifts at the seams after holding fine for years often signals a change in the humidity or moisture level inside that wall cavity.
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.
We don't split Water Removal into separate vendors for extraction, drying, and repair — one crew stays accountable for the whole job, from the first wet-vac pass to the final coat of paint.
The equipment on our trucks scales up or down to the job, but the process — assess, extract, dry, verify, repair — doesn't change.
The first hour after a water loss decides how much of the structure is salvageable, which is why extraction is always the first truck-mount job, not an afterthought behind paperwork.
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.
Reconstruction starts from the actual drying documentation, not a fresh guess, which keeps the repair scope accurate.
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.
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.
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 and drying run as one continuous process rather than two separate scheduled visits.
Moisture readings confirm the structure meets a safe drying standard before we hand over documentation and move into reconstruction.
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.
Every technician carries IICRC certification, and every crew works fully insured — documentation available whenever you want it.
Regionally staged trucks mean a crew often arrives before a national chain's call center finishes the intake questionnaire.
We'd rather have the pricing conversation upfront than after the job's already underway.
A guarantee only counts if it's backed by a second moisture reading, not just good intentions.
If our readings don't hit a safe drying standard on schedule, equipment stays running at our cost until they do — that's the bar we hold ourselves to.
This isn't marketing copy — it's the actual checklist our crews sign off against before a job is marked complete.

"What stood out was how calm the technician stayed while explaining a genuinely stressful situation — that mattered more than I expected."
Renee A., San Marino"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., San Marino"They didn't cut corners on the sanitization step even though it clearly slowed them down — with two kids in the house, that mattered to us."
Fatima J., San Marino"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., San Marino"Getting a daily drying log meant we always knew where the job stood instead of a vague verbal update."
Grace T., San Marino"Our office flooded overnight and industrial equipment was already running before our staff arrived for the morning shift."
Nathaniel W., San Marino"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., San Marino"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., San Marino"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., San Marino"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., San Marino
