Completion date: October 23, 2025

Location: Mount Olive, NJ

Solutions provided:

Homeowner Brian K. in Mount Olive, NJ experienced flooding in his unfinished basement after a sump pump failure during a prolonged rainstorm. Without an operational pump, stormwater quickly backed up and spread across the basement’s concrete floor, saturating stored items and soaking into base framing along the perimeter walls. Our water damage restoration team in Mount Olive, NJ responded with emergency water extraction and removal of all wet contents, followed by application of antimicrobial agents to prevent future mold issues. Moisture readings confirmed water intrusion in multiple foundation corners, prompting a focused structure drying plan to protect framing and prevent deterioration. The flooded basement in Mount Olive, NJ was dried using commercial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers positioned to accelerate evaporation from masonry and wood surfaces.

This sump pump failure in Mount Olive, NJ was covered under the homeowner’s insurance, which allowed for complete mitigation and documentation services. Our team performed debris removal, moisture mapping, and installed a temporary containment barrier to separate affected areas during drying. The water damage cleanup also included HEPA filtration to control airborne particulates and protect indoor air quality. All restoration steps in Mount Olive, NJ were completed with detailed reporting for insurance adjuster review. The flood event highlighted the importance of routine sump pump maintenance in basements vulnerable to stormwater infiltration in Mount Olive, NJ.
