Job completed for Abby M. - Chatham, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: August 13, 2024

Location: Chatham, NJ

Why did the customer contact us?

Abby reached out to PDQ Restoration after a severe storm caused water damage in her finished basement in Chatham, NJ. The heavy rain and stormwater led to significant flooding, resulting in soaked carpeting and elevated moisture levels throughout the basement. Abby noticed that the water had spread across the entire basement, leaving the carpet wet to the touch and the walls damp. The increased humidity and musty odor added to her concerns about the potential for mold growth and further damage. Seeking immediate help, Abby requested PDQ's assistance to address the flooded basement.

Solutions provided:

Upon arriving at Abby’s home in Chatham, PDQ Restoration's technicians quickly assessed the extent of the water damage and began by extracting the standing water from the wet carpet using specialized equipment designed for efficient moisture removal. The team carefully targeted both the visible water and the moisture within the carpet padding and subfloor. To reduce the high humidity levels and expedite the drying process, fans and dehumidifiers were strategically placed throughout the basement. This comprehensive approach was essential to restore Abby's finished basement to a safe, dry condition, preventing any long-term damage from the stormwater intrusion.
