Job completed for Ada M. - Lincoln Park, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: January 7, 2025

Location: Lincoln Park, NJ

Why did the customer contact us?

Ada contacted PDQ Restoration after her water heater unexpectedly burst, causing extensive water damage in the basement of her Lincoln Park, NJ home. The sudden surge of water inundated the basement, soaking the flooring and penetrating the ceiling insulation, which led to high humidity levels throughout the space. Concerned about the immediate threat of mold growth and the potential compromise of her home's structural integrity, Ada knew she needed swift professional intervention.

Solutions provided:

Upon arrival, the PDQ Restoration team conducted a thorough evaluation of the basement to assess the full scope of the water intrusion. They promptly began removing the standing water using powerful extraction equipment, minimizing further saturation of the floors and walls. To tackle the high humidity and ensure complete drying, industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers were strategically deployed throughout the basement area.

Recognizing the risk of mold development, the team meticulously dried the ceiling insulation and treated all affected surfaces with specialized antimicrobial solutions. This proactive approach not only prevented mold growth but also safeguarded the living environment for Ada and her family. Throughout the restoration process, regular moisture readings were conducted to verify that all areas were thoroughly dried and free from residual dampness.

Over the course of four days, PDQ Restoration worked diligently to restore Ada’s basement, coordinating seamlessly with her insurance provider to handle the majority of the restoration costs. Ada was responsible only for the deductible, thanks to comprehensive insurance coverage. By the end of the project, Ada’s basement in Lincoln Park, NJ, was returned to a dry, clean, and safe condition, allowing her to resume normal use without any lingering concerns about water damage or mold.
