Job completed for Dana P. - Kingston, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: June 27, 2025

Location: Kingston, NJ

Solutions provided:

Homeowner Dana P. in Kingston, NJ experienced a flooded garage after a heavy rainstorm overwhelmed exterior drainage and sent water streaming under the garage door. The structure, which had minimal waterproofing and a slight grade toward the home, quickly filled with several inches of water, soaking stored boxes, tools, and drywall along the lower walls. Flooded garages are a common form of water damage in Kingston, particularly in properties with inadequate grading or compromised seals. Our emergency response team arrived promptly to begin water extraction and drying. Dana’s homeowner’s insurance included flood-related water mitigation coverage for the garage cleanup.

Our Kingston, NJ water damage team began by pumping out standing water and removing water-logged contents from the garage for assessment and drying. Porous wall materials that had wicked up moisture were cut out, and dehumidifiers and air movers were installed to dry the concrete slab and structural framing. Moisture meters were used to confirm drying progress and ensure no hidden saturation remained within wall cavities. The garage floor was cleaned and treated with antimicrobial agents to prevent mold growth, a frequent issue in flooded garages across Kingston, NJ. After several days of monitoring and equipment operation, Dana’s Kingston property was fully dried and ready for minor repairs and future flood prevention improvements.
