La Follette 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.

We run our La Follette operation on IICRC-certified technicians and commercial-grade equipment, not a subcontractor list we pull from when the phone rings.
Every La Follette 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 La Follette home.
Ongoing training matters more to us than a certificate on the wall — drying standards and equipment change, and our crews train against the current standard, not the one from five years ago.
Not every water problem announces itself with a flooded floor. Most start quietly, and catching one of these signs early is usually the difference between a same-day fix and a much bigger repair.
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.
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 shifts slightly when you walk on it, even subtly, is worth a moisture reading before it gets worse.
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.
Mold that returns after a bleach cleaning is a sign the moisture source behind it was never actually addressed.
If more than one of these sounds familiar, it's worth a professional moisture check sooner rather than later.
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.
The equipment on our trucks scales up or down to the job, but the process — assess, extract, dry, verify, repair — doesn't change.
We treat extraction speed as the single biggest variable we control — every additional hour of standing water raises the odds of secondary damage.
Air movers and dehumidifiers get placed according to psychrometric readings taken at assessment, not a default layout used on every job regardless of conditions.
Materials that had direct contact with contaminated water almost always come out rather than get dried in place — that's a safety call, not a cost-cutting one.
We treat the 48-hour mold window as a deadline for our own drying timeline, not a talking point.
One contract from extraction through reconstruction means you're not managing two separate companies and two separate invoices.
Specialized content cleaning often saves items that looked like a total loss at first glance, which keeps replacement costs off your claim.
Four steps, no guesswork — here's exactly what happens between your call and a verified-dry structure.
Dispatch gathers just enough detail to load the right equipment before the truck leaves the lot.
Photo and moisture documentation happens before any equipment gets touched, which protects your insurance claim later.
Extraction and drying run as one continuous process rather than two separate scheduled visits.
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.
Every technician carries IICRC certification, and every crew works fully insured — documentation available whenever you want it.
A nearby crew isn't a slogan — it's the gap between drying equipment running in an hour versus half a day.
The number we quote is the number you pay, regardless of how long the drying cycle runs.
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.
Technicians aren't rewarded for closing jobs quickly, which keeps the incentive pointed at actually finishing the drying right.

"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 La Follette had it extracted and drying equipment running before I finished my coffee."
Renee A., La Follette"A storm backed water into our finished basement and the crew classified it, extracted it, and had dehumidifiers running that same afternoon. The invoice matched the quote to the dollar."
Owen D., La Follette"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., La Follette"The reconstruction crew matched our original flooring almost exactly after the repair — you'd never guess there was ever a leak."
Lucas P., La Follette"The thermal scan caught damage behind a cabinet that could have turned into a much bigger mold problem if it went unnoticed."
Grace T., La Follette"They sectioned off the wet area instead of shutting down the whole office during drying, which kept us operating almost normally."
Nathaniel W., La Follette"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., La Follette"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., La Follette"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., La Follette"Being out of town when it happened was stressful enough — having a crew that could work directly with our property manager made it manageable."
Victor N., La Follette
