Job completed for Andrea T. - High Bridge, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: June 26, 2025

Location: High Bridge, NJ

Solutions provided:

Homeowner Andrea T. in High Bridge, NJ experienced extensive water damage after a pipe under the kitchen sink burst unexpectedly, flooding the surrounding cabinetry, subfloor, and adjacent rooms. The PVC drain pipe had deteriorated over time and cracked, releasing water that went unnoticed overnight. By morning, water had saturated the hardwood flooring and migrated into the basement ceiling below. Burst pipes under kitchen sinks are a common water damage issue in High Bridge, especially in older homes with aging plumbing. Fortunately, Andrea’s homeowner’s insurance included full coverage for the water damage restoration and structural drying services.

Our High Bridge, NJ water mitigation team responded promptly to remove all standing water from the kitchen floor and begin emergency drying. Damaged base cabinets were detached to access and dry the wet subfloor beneath. Moisture meters confirmed water had seeped into the joists and insulation, requiring partial ceiling removal in the basement to facilitate airflow. High-powered air movers and dehumidifiers were installed both upstairs and downstairs to dry the affected structure thoroughly. Antimicrobial treatments were applied to all exposed surfaces to prevent mold growth. By the end of the multi-day process, Andrea’s High Bridge home was professionally dried and stabilized, with documentation submitted to her insurance for claim completion.
