Job completed for Mason L. - Mount Olive, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: November 18, 2025

Location: Mount Olive, NJ

Solutions provided:

Mason L. experienced extensive water damage in his Mount Olive home after a sudden water pipe break caused by a failed HVAC discharge line led to burst pipes inside the laundry-room wall. The resulting flooding saturated drywall, wet insulation, and multiple wood floor sections, creating rapid moisture migration throughout several areas of the Mount Olive property. Because the loss was covered by insurance, water extraction and structural drying in Mount Olive began immediately with full documentation prepared for the adjuster. Technicians also discovered an appliance leak cleanup issue from a malfunctioning washing machine that had been slowly releasing water into the subfloor. Moisture mapping and thermal imaging identified saturation consistent with a main water line break, prompting controlled demolition to protect unaffected building materials in Mount Olive. Specialized drying mats were deployed to address significant wood floor water damage and help stabilize humidity levels throughout the Mount Olive residence.

During the restoration phase, the Mount Olive home underwent high-capacity dehumidification, aggressive air movement, and targeted structure drying to remove deep-set moisture in framing and subfloor assemblies. Wet insulation removal became necessary in heavily affected areas, followed by sanitation steps to reduce microbial growth risk in the Mount Olive property. Continued inspections ruled out roof leaks but confirmed several zones of trapped moisture beneath wood floor panels, extending the drying cycle. Equipment placement was adjusted daily to ensure thorough drying and adherence to dry-standard requirements. Documentation—including photos, moisture readings, and drying logs—supported the insurance-covered mitigation process throughout the project in Mount Olive. By completion, the Mount Olive residence had fully undergone water extraction, structural drying, appliance leak cleanup, and wood floor water damage stabilization across all impacted areas.
