Solutions provided:

Lauren P. contacted PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration for a Water Damage job at her home in Summit, NJ after ceiling materials collapsed due to hidden moisture above. The water damage in Summit, NJ was caused by a slow plumbing leak from an upstairs bathroom line that allowed water to saturate drywall and insulation over time. Once the leak worsened, wet ceiling materials failed, exposing water-damaged drywall, framing, and insulation. Our team responded to the water damage loss in Summit, NJ by performing controlled demolition to remove compromised drywall and prevent further damage. Moisture mapping confirmed water migration beyond the visible collapse area, requiring professional water extraction and structure drying. The water damage restoration in Summit, NJ was documented and handled as an insurance-covered water loss.
