Job completed for Daniel U. - Morristown, NJ - Water Damage

Daniel from Morristown, NJ contacted PDQ Restoration after discovering a pipe leak in the first-floor hallway of his home. He initially noticed a wet spot forming along the baseboard, which quickly turned into visible water damage on the drywall and flooring. When the damp area began to spread and emit a musty odor, Daniel knew he needed professional help to prevent further water damage and potential mold issues in his Morristown residence.

PDQ Restoration arrived the same day and quickly identified the source—a cracked supply line running inside the wall. Our team shut off the water and carefully opened the affected wall section to access and repair the leaking pipe. To protect surrounding areas, we set up containment using plastic sheeting and negative air pressure, especially important since the hallway was a high-traffic area. Water extraction tools were used to remove moisture from behind the walls and under the hardwood flooring.

To ensure the Morristown hallway was thoroughly dried, we deployed commercial-grade air movers and dehumidifiers, targeting both the visible and hidden damp areas. The wet drywall and baseboards were removed and replaced, and all exposed surfaces were treated with antimicrobial solutions to prevent mold growth. Throughout the process, moisture levels were regularly monitored to confirm the space was returning to safe, dry conditions.

Thanks to PDQ Restoration’s fast response and detailed restoration process, Daniel’s Morristown, NJ home was restored without further complications. We also assisted with his insurance claim by providing full documentation and damage reports. The first-floor hallway is now clean, dry, and fully repaired—another successful water damage recovery in the Morristown area.
