Job completed for Steven R. - Lake Hopatcong, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: August 31, 2025

Location: Lake Hopatcong, NJ

Solutions provided:

Steven R. experienced major water damage in his kitchen in Lake Hopatcong, NJ, after a burst pipe behind the wall released a continuous flow of water throughout the space. The leak quickly saturated the drywall, cabinetry, and surrounding structural materials, leaving visible damage across the kitchen. When the PDQ Restoration team arrived at the Lake Hopatcong, NJ, property, they found that all the sheetrock in the affected area had to be removed due to extensive moisture saturation and the risk of mold. In Lake Hopatcong, NJ, kitchen water damage from burst pipes can escalate quickly, particularly when trapped water spreads into hidden wall cavities. The homeowner’s insurance covered the entire water damage restoration, including demolition and drying.

The PDQ Restoration team began by shutting off the water source and removing all damaged sheetrock in the Lake Hopatcong, NJ, kitchen to expose the soaked framing and insulation. Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers were deployed to dry the structure completely, and moisture meters confirmed the extent of saturation behind cabinets and appliances. In Lake Hopatcong, NJ, full sheetrock removal is often necessary in burst pipe cases to ensure no hidden moisture remains that could lead to structural deterioration or mold growth. The team documented all work for insurance purposes and prepared the space for reconstruction. The kitchen in Lake Hopatcong, NJ, was fully stabilized, dry, and ready for rebuild once the water damage mitigation was complete.
