Job completed for Grace E. - Florham Park, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: May 22, 2025

Location: Florham Park, NJ

Solutions provided:

Grace E. contacted PDQ after noticing water stains and sagging drywall on the ceiling near a window outcropping in her Florham Park home. The source of the damage was traced to a compromised roof seam above the architectural outcropping, which had allowed rainwater to leak through and collect in the ceiling cavity. Over time, the water infiltration saturated the ceiling insulation, causing visible damage and raising concerns about mold development. PDQ’s Florham Park water damage restoration team arrived promptly to assess the extent of the roof leak and perform immediate water extraction and structure drying.

Roof leaks near window outcroppings are a common cause of hidden water damage in Florham Park homes. In this case, the team removed wet drywall and insulation from the ceiling, allowing the wood framing to be fully dried using commercial-grade air movers and dehumidifiers. Moisture detection tools were used to confirm that all surrounding areas were dry and safe from further deterioration. Antimicrobial treatments were applied to prevent any microbial growth within the affected ceiling structure. The water damage restoration was processed as a covered insurance claim, and full documentation was provided. This Florham Park roof leak repair highlights the importance of timely intervention when water seeps through ceiling structures near vulnerable architectural features.
