Job completed for Tyler B. - Madison, NJ - Water Damage

Tyler B. contacted PDQ Restoration after discovering water dripping from the ceiling of his garage in Madison, NJ. A pipe had burst during a cold snap, saturating the insulation and drywall above the garage ceiling. By the time he noticed the leak, water had already spread across the concrete floor and soaked into stored belongings, including boxes, tools, and shelving. Concerned about structural damage and rising humidity, Tyler turned to PDQ for fast and professional help.

PDQ Restoration arrived promptly at the Madison, NJ property and performed a thorough inspection of the garage ceiling. Moisture meters and thermal imaging revealed wet and damp insulation, saturated drywall, and elevated humidity throughout the space. The team shut off the water supply, removed damaged ceiling sections, and exposed the broken pipe for repair. Once the plumbing was addressed, water extraction began, and powerful drying equipment was deployed to target the soaked ceiling cavity and surrounding areas.

Industrial dehumidifiers and air movers worked to dry out the damp ceiling materials and wet garage contents. PDQ technicians treated the affected structure with antimicrobial agents to prevent mold growth, especially in hidden or humid pockets. Stored items were sorted—salvageable belongings were dried and cleaned, while unsalvageable items were disposed of with proper documentation for insurance purposes. Throughout the multi-day process, PDQ carefully monitored moisture levels to ensure the space was fully dried.

By the end of the project, Tyler’s garage in Madison, NJ was clean, dry, and fully restored. The broken pipe and water damage were handled quickly and thoroughly, and the space was left sanitized and safe for use. Thanks to PDQ Restoration’s expert response, another Madison, NJ homeowner was able to avoid long-term moisture issues and resume life with peace of mind.
