Job completed for Stephanie H. - Denville, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: August 27, 2025

Location: Denville, NJ

Solutions provided:

Homeowner Stephanie H. in Denville, NJ suffered extensive water damage after a pipe broke in the ceiling above the second-floor bathroom. Water poured through the ceiling, saturating drywall, insulation, flooring, and cabinetry before dripping into the rooms below. PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration responded immediately with emergency water extraction and moisture mapping. The water damage in Denville required a full gut of the bathroom down to the framing, including removal of wet drywall, cabinetry, flooring, and insulation. Industrial dehumidifiers and air movers were deployed to dry all exposed materials and cavity spaces.

This Denville water damage restoration involved detailed documentation for the homeowner’s insurance claim, which covered the full scope of demolition and structural drying. Once dry-out was confirmed with thermal imaging and moisture readings, the area was treated with anti-microbial spray to prevent mold growth. The broken pipe was repaired prior to reconstruction, and structural materials were evaluated for long-term integrity. PDQ’s team ensured every surface in the Denville bathroom was properly dried and sanitized before any rebuild. This case highlights how a ceiling pipe failure in Denville, NJ can lead to a full bathroom tear-out, requiring fast, professional intervention to mitigate extensive water damage.
