Location: Andover, NJ

Why did the customer contact us?

Solutions provided:

Jennifer L. reached out to PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration after severe water damage was discovered inside her Andover home following a sudden burst pipe in the ceiling. The burst pipe released a large volume of water, causing widespread water damage to drywall, wet insulation, and wood floor water damage throughout multiple rooms in Andover. This Andover water damage incident occurred overnight when a frozen water line failed, allowing water to spread into walls and flooring before it was noticed. Immediate water extraction was required to limit further structural damage and prevent secondary issues common with water pipe breaks in Andover properties. Our inspection confirmed moisture intrusion into subflooring and wall cavities, a frequent result of burst pipes and hidden plumbing failures in Andover. The water damage restoration process in Andover was covered by the homeowner’s insurance policy, allowing mitigation work to proceed promptly.

After stopping the water source, our Andover restoration team performed professional water extraction using commercial-grade equipment to remove standing water. Structure drying was then initiated with air movers and dehumidifiers to address wet insulation, saturated framing, and wood floor water damage throughout the Andover residence. Special focus was placed on areas affected by moisture migration to ensure complete drying and avoid long-term damage. Daily moisture monitoring was conducted to verify drying progress and support the overall water damage restoration in Andover. Additional appliance leak cleanup measures were completed after residual moisture was discovered near the laundry area during follow-up inspections. This Andover water damage job required detailed mitigation and structure drying to fully restore the home after the burst pipe event.
