Job completed for Greg V. - Hanover, NJ - Fire Damage

Completion date: June 11, 2025

Location: Hanover, NJ

Solutions provided:

Greg V. contacted PDQ Restoration after a fire broke out in a house under renovation in Hanover, NJ. The fire originated from a malfunctioning electrical panel in the utility area, igniting nearby framing and insulation before spreading through open wall cavities. Since the home was mid-remodel, many areas lacked drywall, allowing flames and smoke to travel rapidly through the structure. Our team responded immediately to secure the property with an Emergency Board-Up, preventing further damage and unauthorized access during the fire restoration process.

In Hanover, NJ, our fire restoration crew removed charred construction materials, soot-covered insulation, and smoke-damaged structural elements. The open layout of the remodel allowed smoke to infiltrate new framing and ductwork, necessitating Duct System Smoke Removal and extensive Smoke Odor Removal throughout the property. Soot damage was also found on partially installed drywall and electrical conduits. Coordination with the homeowner’s insurance adjuster helped streamline the Fire Damage Insurance Claim, ensuring all demolition, cleanup, and decontamination efforts were documented and approved. The Hanover fire restoration project prioritized structural safety and environmental cleanliness, laying the groundwork for the homeowner to resume remodeling safely.
