Job completed for Sarah B. - Mountain Lakes, NJ - Water Damage
Completion date: January 21, 2025
Location: Mountain Lakes, NJ
Why did the customer contact us?
When Sarah discovered her basement in Mountain Lakes, NJ, was flooded after a heavy rainstorm, she immediately contacted PDQ Restoration. The excessive rainfall had overwhelmed her home’s drainage system, allowing water to seep into the basement and create a damp, uninhabitable space. Concerned about the potential for mold growth, structural damage, and loss of stored belongings, Sarah turned to PDQ for swift and professional assistance.
Solutions provided:
Upon arrival, our team conducted a thorough assessment of the flooded basement to determine the extent of water intrusion. Using powerful water extraction equipment, we quickly removed standing water to prevent further damage. Next, industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers were strategically placed throughout the basement to eliminate moisture and restore the humidity to safe levels. This process ensured that no hidden pockets of water were left behind to cause long-term issues.
To address the risk of mold and mildew, we applied antimicrobial treatments to all affected surfaces, including walls, floors, and stored items. Our team carefully cleaned and sanitized the area, paying particular attention to Sarah’s furniture and personal belongings that were impacted by the flooding. Any materials beyond repair were safely removed and documented to assist with her insurance claim.
Throughout the three-day restoration process, moisture levels were continuously monitored to confirm the basement was thoroughly dried. We worked closely with Sarah and her insurance company to ensure a smooth claims process, alleviating her financial concerns. Thanks to PDQ Restoration’s expertise and quick response, Sarah’s Mountain Lakes, NJ, home was fully restored to a dry and healthy condition, giving her peace of mind and a safe space to enjoy once again.
