Job completed for Denise H. - Stillwater, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: August 23, 2025

Location: Stillwater, NJ

Solutions provided:

Denise H. faced major water damage in her Stillwater, NJ home after a burst pipe in the kitchen released pressurized water that flooded the main level and leaked into the finished basement below. The water spread rapidly across the kitchen flooring, cabinetry, and baseboards, then seeped through the subfloor and saturated the finished basement’s walls, flooring, and contents. In Stillwater, NJ, burst pipe water damage is a frequent cause of interior flooding, especially when plumbing joints fail unexpectedly. The kitchen and basement both required urgent water extraction and structure drying to prevent further deterioration. Because the pipe break was sudden and accidental, the restoration was fully covered by the homeowner’s insurance policy.

Restoration technicians in Stillwater, NJ began by isolating the water source and deploying high-volume extraction equipment to remove standing water from both levels. Air movers and dehumidifiers were strategically placed to dry affected materials, including drywall, insulation, and subflooring in the kitchen, and carpet and wall paneling in the basement. Moisture meters were used to detect hidden saturation points, and antimicrobial treatments were applied to reduce the risk of mold development. Damaged cabinetry and lower wall sections were removed where necessary to ensure a clean, dry restoration. The water damage cleanup in Stillwater, NJ involved coordinated efforts to resolve a burst pipe, mitigate water damage across multiple floors, and fully restore both the kitchen and finished basement.
