Solutions provided:

Upon arrival at David’s home in Short Hills, NJ, our team quickly assessed the situation and began water extraction using high-powered pumps. Since the basement was unfinished, our priority was to remove all standing water efficiently and prevent excessive moisture from seeping into the walls and foundation. Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers were strategically placed throughout the basement to accelerate the drying process and eliminate hidden damp spots.

To ensure a complete restoration, we conducted thorough moisture readings and applied antimicrobial treatments to prevent mold growth. Any stored belongings that had been affected were carefully inspected, dried, and sanitized. We also provided recommendations for a new, more efficient sump pump system to prevent future flooding incidents.
