Completion date: September 21, 2025

Location: Mendham, NJ

Solutions provided:

Homeowner Eric V. contacted our team after discovering water seeping from the base of a closet wall in his Mendham, NJ home. A leaking pipe at floor level had gone unnoticed long enough to cause significant saturation beneath the wood floor. The hardwood planks had begun to cup and discolor, signaling hidden moisture and the need for immediate intervention. Our technicians removed a section of baseboard and used moisture meters to confirm water migration across the subfloor and into the adjoining room. Water damage restoration in Mendham, NJ started with the removal of affected flooring and drying of the substructure. The loss was covered by insurance due to the plumbing-related cause.

This Mendham, NJ water damage project required specialized drying to preserve the integrity of surrounding materials. We installed containment plastic to isolate the work area and prevent moisture from spreading. Injectidry systems and dehumidifiers were used to dry beneath the floor surface and within the wall cavity. Antimicrobial treatments were applied to prevent mold growth, and daily monitoring ensured complete moisture removal. The pipe was repaired by a licensed plumber before structural drying was finalized. This case of water damage in Mendham, NJ highlights the importance of early detection and professional restoration when dealing with hidden pipe leaks beneath wood flooring.
