When a pipe bursts or a storm backs up your drain lines, waiting on hold is the last thing you can afford. Our Cherryville-based crews carry moisture meters and truck-mount extraction equipment on every rig so the drying process starts the moment we knock on your door.

Aqua Guard Water Damage built its Cherryville 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.
We answer our own phones around the clock in Cherryville, which means the person who books your appointment already knows our schedule, our crew availability, and how fast we can realistically get a truck to your address.
We also carry direct experience working alongside insurance adjusters, so the documentation we generate on day one is already formatted the way most carriers expect to see it.
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.
If opening windows and running a fan doesn't clear the smell within a day, the moisture source is still active and needs professional extraction, not just ventilation. A smell that returns after cleaning is a strong sign the moisture is still present.
Tile that suddenly sounds hollow when you tap it often means the mortar bed underneath has been sitting in moisture long enough to lose adhesion. That hollow sound rarely resolves on its own.
An unexplained jump in your water bill is frequently the first sign of a slab leak or a failing supply line long before any visible water appears. Catching it at this stage is far cheaper than waiting for a visible flood.
Paint that bubbles or peels away from a wall, especially near baseboards, usually means moisture is pushing through from behind rather than a simple application problem.
Dark spotting in grout lines or around window frames is often the first visible sign of a moisture problem that's been developing for weeks.
We treat Emergency Water Damage as one continuous job rather than a series of handoffs — the crew that extracts the water is accountable for the drying results, and the drying results determine what reconstruction is actually needed.
We prioritize extraction speed above everything else in the first hour, because every additional hour standing water sits raises the odds of secondary damage to subfloors and framing.
Equipment placement isn't guesswork; it's calculated from psychrometric readings taken at the start of the job and adjusted daily as conditions change.
Blackwater jobs get treated with extra caution, since porous materials that touched contaminated water almost always need to be removed rather than dried in place.
Once structural drying is underway, we apply antimicrobial treatments to studs, subfloor, and other porous surfaces to stop mold colonies before they establish, especially in areas that stayed wet more than 48 hours.
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.
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.
A real person answers, gathers the details of your water loss, and routes the closest available crew immediately.
We document the loss with photos and moisture readings before touching anything, which also protects your insurance claim.
We set drying equipment based on the specific moisture readings taken during assessment, not a generic placement pattern.
We re-test every affected area before calling a job complete, then coordinate repairs so you're not left with an open punch list.
Every technician carries IICRC certification and our crews are fully insured for your protection on every job.
Trucks are staged regionally so a crew can typically reach you well before a national chain's call center even finishes your intake form.
We'd rather explain the cost clearly upfront than have that conversation after the job is already underway.
A guarantee only means something if it's backed by a second set of moisture readings, not just a handshake at the end of the visit.
If our moisture readings don't hit a safe drying standard on schedule, we keep equipment on site at no additional cost until they do — that's the standard we hold ourselves to.
Our technicians don't get paid faster by closing jobs early, which keeps the incentive aligned with actually finishing the drying properly.
Call +1-844-234-5373Whether your address falls in 28021 or one of the neighboring zip codes we cover, the same crew and the same response standard applies.
Coverage isn't limited to the city center — our Cherryville routes extend out to the surrounding suburbs so outlying addresses aren't treated as an afterthought.
"A pipe burst behind our water heater and the crew here in Cherryville had extraction units running within 40 minutes of my call. They walked me through the moisture readings every day until it was fully dry."
James R., Cherryville"Our basement took on water during a storm and the crew classified it, extracted it, and had dehumidifiers running the same afternoon. The final invoice matched the upfront quote exactly."
Denise M., Cherryville"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., Cherryville"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., Cherryville"We had a slow leak we didn't notice for weeks and the crew found moisture in places we never would have checked using thermal imaging."
Carlos V., Cherryville"Our commercial unit flooded overnight and they had industrial equipment running before our staff arrived for the morning shift."
Angela F., Cherryville"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., Cherryville"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."
