Job completed for Rachel T. - Mount Olive, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: August 20, 2025

Location: Mount Olive, NJ

Solutions provided:

Rachel T. discovered hidden water damage in her Mount Olive, NJ home after a slow-leaking pipe behind the wall allowed moisture to accumulate beneath the carpet in two adjacent rooms. Over time, the persistent dampness created ideal conditions for mold growth under the carpet padding and along the base of the drywall. In Mount Olive, NJ, these types of hidden water leaks often go unnoticed until musty odors or visible staining appear. Because the leak was gradual, only part of the damage qualified for insurance coverage, specifically the mold remediation component and the necessary water damage repairs to structural materials.

The mold removal and water damage team in Mount Olive, NJ began by removing the affected carpet and padding, exposing widespread black mold growth along the subfloor and lower wall areas. Containment barriers and HEPA filtration systems were installed to prevent cross-contamination during the cleanup. Technicians performed mold inspections, followed by targeted black mold remediation, sanding, and application of antimicrobial sealants. Dehumidifiers and air movers were deployed to eliminate residual moisture and restore safe indoor humidity levels. This Mount Olive, NJ job addressed both the water leak source and the secondary structural mold, emphasizing the importance of thorough mold inspections & remediation when water damage remains undetected.
