Job completed for Steven H. - Parsippany, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: January 6, 2026

Location: Parsippany, NJ

Solutions provided:

Steven H. contacted PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration for a residential water damage cleanup in Parsippany, NJ after water intrusion was discovered above a finished ceiling. The cause of the water damage was a burst pipe located between floor joists, which released water into the ceiling cavity and saturated framing and drywall in Parsippany, NJ. The pipe break led to wet insulation, visible staining, and moisture absorption into structural wood members. Our team performed a detailed water damage inspection using moisture meters to identify the full extent of hidden water damage throughout the ceiling assembly in Parsippany, NJ. Affected drywall was removed to expose wet materials and prevent trapped moisture from causing further damage. This water damage loss in Parsippany, NJ was covered by the homeowner’s insurance policy and approved for mitigation services.

The water damage restoration process in Parsippany, NJ included controlled demolition to access soaked framing and allow for effective structure drying. Commercial air movers and dehumidifiers were installed to address elevated humidity levels and dry wet insulation and wood framing. Technicians monitored moisture levels daily to ensure drying goals were met according to industry standards for water damage restoration in Parsippany, NJ. Special attention was given to ceiling cavities and plumbing penetrations where water from the burst pipe had migrated. The damaged water line was repaired prior to continuing the drying process to prevent additional water intrusion. Final moisture readings confirmed the affected areas in Parsippany, NJ were fully dried and stabilized, preventing secondary damage and long-term structural issues.
