When the PDQ team arrived at the Chatham, NJ property, they immediately began extracting the water using high-capacity pumps and wet vacs. The basement was filled with furniture, boxes, and storage bins, so contents were carefully sorted—salvageable items were removed, cleaned, and dried, while unsalvageable items were documented for insurance and discarded. PDQ technicians then began a thorough drying process using industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers to address both visible wet areas and hidden moisture within walls and insulation. To combat the excess humidity and prevent long-term issues, the team conducted moisture readings throughout the basement and used targeted drying techniques in trouble spots. Special attention was given to corners and beneath shelving where water had pooled. Once the environment was stabilized, all surfaces were sanitized to prevent mold and bacterial growth. The team also inspected the sump pump system and recommended a new installation with a backup battery to help avoid future flooding events.
