Somis 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.

Ask a Somis homeowner who's dealt with a burst pipe at 3am and, if they called us, they'll tell you the same thing: someone answered, and someone showed up. That's the whole model.
Every Somis 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 Somis 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.
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.
Repainting over a recurring ceiling stain treats the symptom, not the leak still feeding it from above or behind the surface. The stain returning is the actual diagnosis.
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.
Hardwood cupping at the edges, laminate lifting at the seams, or carpet that stays spongy days after you last noticed water — all three point to moisture sitting against the subfloor.
Catching a hidden leak through the water bill is far cheaper than waiting for it to surface as a flooded room.
Bubbling paint near a baseboard or exterior wall usually means moisture is pushing through from behind rather than a simple application defect.
Dark spotting around grout lines or window frames is frequently the first visible sign of a developing moisture problem.
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.
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.
We don't call a structure dry based on a visual check — the moisture meter has the final say before equipment comes down.
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.
If mold has already started, containment with negative air pressure goes up before any demolition begins, so spores don't travel to unaffected rooms.
Reconstruction starts from the actual drying documentation, not a fresh guess, which keeps the repair scope accurate.
We inventory and relocate contents that need to leave the affected area, then coordinate their return once the space is verified dry.
This is the same sequence every job follows, whether it's a single flooded room or a full commercial loss.
Real person, real questions, fast routing — the goal is getting a truck moving within minutes of hanging up.
Skipping or rushing this step is how hidden moisture pockets turn into a mold problem months down the line.
Equipment placement follows the specific psychrometric numbers from assessment, not a generic pattern used on every job.
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.
Shorter drive times matter most in the first hour after a loss, which is exactly when local staging pays off.
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.
We'd rather run a dehumidifier an extra day on our dime than sign off on a reading we're not confident in.
This isn't marketing copy — it's the actual checklist our crews sign off against before a job is marked complete.
Call +1-844-578-1604Whether your address sits in 93066 or a neighboring zip, the same crew and the same response standard applies.
We track call patterns by zip code across Somis to keep crew staffing matched to where emergencies actually happen.
"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 Somis had it extracted and drying equipment running before I finished my coffee."
Renee A., Somis"The daily moisture log gave me something concrete to look at instead of just being told to trust the process."
Owen D., Somis"Professional from the first call to the final walkthrough, and they re-tested moisture before closing the job instead of eyeballing it."
Fatima J., Somis"The reconstruction crew matched our original flooring almost exactly after the repair — you'd never guess there was ever a leak."
Lucas P., Somis"The thermal scan caught damage behind a cabinet that could have turned into a much bigger mold problem if it went unnoticed."
Grace T., Somis"Working a commercial job around our business hours could have been a scheduling nightmare, but they made it simple."
Nathaniel W., Somis"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., Somis"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., Somis"Our upstairs bathroom leaked into the kitchen ceiling below and the crew traced it back to a failed wax ring on the toilet, not just patched the visible ceiling stain."
Melissa C., Somis"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., Somis
