Job completed for Emily W. - Caldwell, NJ - Water Damage
Completion date: April 25, 2025
Location: Caldwell, NJ
Solutions provided:
Emily contacted PDQ Restoration after discovering that the water heater in her finished basement in Caldwell, NJ had burst, releasing gallons of water across the floor. The water quickly saturated the carpeting, soaked into the walls, and threatened to cause mold growth and structural damage. Knowing the risks of prolonged water exposure, Emily reached out for immediate professional help to restore her basement.
The PDQ Restoration team arrived promptly and began with a detailed assessment of the water damage. High-powered water extraction equipment was deployed to remove the standing water from the basement. Due to the extent of the saturation, the carpeting was deemed unsalvageable and safely removed to prevent mold and mildew development. Industrial-strength air movers and dehumidifiers were strategically positioned to dry out any remaining moisture from the flooring, walls, and baseboards.
To ensure complete sanitization, antimicrobial treatments were applied to all impacted surfaces, eliminating potential contaminants and preventing mold growth. The team also conducted moisture readings throughout the process to confirm that the basement was thoroughly dried and safe for future renovation. All damaged materials were properly disposed of, leaving Emily's basement in Caldwell, NJ clean, dry, and ready for restoration.
