Job completed for Emily P. - Summit, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: February 5, 2025

Location: Summit, NJ

Why did the customer contact us?

Emily from Summit, NJ, reached out to PDQ Restoration after noticing her carpeted hallway was damp and had a musty odor. Upon investigation, she discovered that a leaking shower connection in the bathroom had allowed water to seep through the floor and spread into the adjacent hallway. Concerned about potential mold growth and damage to the carpet and subfloor, Emily needed immediate professional assistance to prevent further deterioration.

Solutions provided:

When our team arrived at Emily’s home in Summit, NJ, we conducted a thorough moisture assessment to determine the extent of the water damage. We removed sections of the bathroom flooring to access the source of the leak and worked with a licensed plumber to repair the faulty shower connection. To address the water intrusion in the hallway, we used high-powered extraction equipment to remove excess moisture from the carpet and padding. Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers were strategically placed to dry the subfloor and walls, ensuring no hidden moisture remained.

To prevent mold growth and lingering odors, we applied antimicrobial treatments to the affected carpet, subfloor, and bathroom flooring. We then performed a deep steam cleaning of the carpet to restore its appearance and eliminate any residual dampness. Throughout the process, we provided Emily with regular updates and assisted her in filing an insurance claim for the damages.

Thanks to PDQ Restoration’s swift response and expert techniques, Emily’s bathroom and carpeted hallway in Summit, NJ, were fully restored within days. Now, her home is dry, sanitized, and protected from further water damage, allowing her to enjoy a clean and safe living space once again.
