Why did the customer contact us?
When David from Boonton, NJ, discovered water dripping into his garage due to an ice dam on his roof, he contacted PDQ Restoration for immediate help. The ice dam had caused melting snow to back up under the shingles, leading to significant water damage to the walls and ceiling of his garage. Concerned about worsening structural damage and potential mold growth, David sought professional assistance to address the issue effectively.
Solutions provided:
Upon arrival, our expert technicians assessed the situation, identifying the source of the water intrusion and the extent of the damage. We began by carefully removing the wet insulation and damaged drywall to prevent further saturation. Using high-powered pumps, we extracted standing water and deployed industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to accelerate the drying process. Moisture meters were utilized to detect any hidden damp spots in the garage structure, ensuring a comprehensive approach to water removal.
To prevent secondary issues such as mold growth, the team applied specialized antimicrobial treatments to the affected areas. Once the garage was thoroughly dried and sanitized, we repaired the damaged sections of the walls and ceiling, restoring the space to its pre-damage condition. Regular updates were provided to David throughout the process, ensuring he was informed every step of the way.
