Job completed for Amanda T. - Hackensack, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: June 2, 2025

Location: Hackensack, NJ

Solutions provided:

When Amanda T. noticed warped floorboards and a damp cabinet base in her Hackensack kitchen, she traced the source to a slow refrigerator supply line leak. The hidden leak had been seeping behind baseboards and under cabinets for several days, causing water damage to drywall, lower cabinetry, and subfloor materials. PDQ Restoration responded promptly, uncovering extensive moisture trapped within the walls. A flood cut—removal of the bottom two feet of drywall—was necessary to dry out the structure properly. This kitchen water damage cleanup in Hackensack was covered by Amanda’s homeowner’s insurance, allowing PDQ to move forward without delay.

Technicians from PDQ Restoration in Hackensack performed detailed moisture mapping and used thermal imaging to locate all water-damaged areas. Once the flood cut was made, wet insulation was removed and antimicrobial agents were applied to prevent mold growth. High-velocity air movers and dehumidifiers were installed to dry the kitchen substructure and surrounding areas. The fridge line was repaired and reinforced to prevent recurrence, and unaffected cabinets were protected during the restoration. After multiple days of drying and environmental monitoring, the kitchen in Hackensack was left clean, dry, and ready for reconstruction.
