Job completed for Karen K. - Denville, NJ - Sewage Cleanup

Completion date: February 26, 2025

Location: Denville, NJ

Why did the customer contact us?

Karen contacted PDQ Restoration after experiencing a severe toilet overflow in her home’s bathroom in Denville, NJ. The backup caused contaminated water to spread across the bathroom floor, seeping under the vanity and soaking into the walls. Concerned about the health risks associated with sewage exposure, Karen knew she needed professional sewage cleanup services to ensure her home was safe and sanitary.

Solutions provided:

Upon arrival, our team conducted a thorough assessment and determined that the affected materials needed immediate removal due to contamination. We began by extracting all standing water using industrial-grade pumps, then carefully removed the saturated flooring and lower sections of the drywall in a flood cut to eliminate trapped moisture and bacteria. Specialized air movers and dehumidifiers were strategically placed to accelerate the drying process, preventing further water damage and mold growth.

To fully sanitize the space, we applied hospital-grade disinfectants and antimicrobial treatments to all exposed surfaces, eliminating harmful bacteria and odors. HEPA air scrubbers were also deployed to improve indoor air quality and prevent airborne contaminants. Once moisture readings confirmed the bathroom was completely dry and safe, we worked with Karen to coordinate the reconstruction process, including new flooring and drywall installation.

Within a few days, PDQ Restoration successfully restored Karen’s Denville, NJ home, ensuring her bathroom was clean, dry, and fully sanitized. We also assisted with her insurance claim, helping her navigate the paperwork to cover the cost of the sewage cleanup. Thanks to our fast and professional response, Karen could move forward with confidence, knowing her home was safe and free from contamination.
