Completion date: March 12, 2025

Location: Teaneck, NJ

Why did the customer contact us?

David called PDQ Restoration after discovering his living room in Teaneck, NJ had flooded due to a broken pipe inside the wall. The pipe had burst overnight, and by morning, several gallons of water had spread across the hardwood floor. The wood planks were already starting to warp, and water had seeped beneath the flooring, into the subfloor, and into the baseboards along the walls. With rising humidity and visible dampness throughout the space, David knew this wasn’t a DIY fix—he needed immediate professional water damage restoration.

Solutions provided:

PDQ Restoration arrived quickly at the Teaneck, NJ home and began by shutting off the water supply and locating the exact source of the pipe break. Once the area was secured, we used high-powered extraction equipment to remove the standing water from the hardwood floors. Moisture detection tools revealed water trapped underneath the floorboards and behind the walls, so we installed industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers to aggressively dry the space and reduce moisture and humidity to safe levels.

Our technicians removed affected baseboards and used specialized drying mats designed to pull moisture from beneath the hardwood planks. To prevent mold and further damage, all wet surfaces were treated with antimicrobial solutions and thoroughly sanitized. We monitored moisture levels daily and provided David with progress updates and photos for his insurance claim. While some of the hardwood flooring had to be replaced, we salvaged as much as possible through precision drying techniques.

Within a few days, David’s living room in Teaneck, NJ was completely dried and ready for repair. PDQ Restoration worked closely with his insurance company to ensure the restoration process was smooth and stress-free. Thanks to our fast response and expert care, David’s Teaneck, NJ home was protected from long-term water damage.
