Job completed for Mark E. - Stirling, NJ - Water Damage

Completion date: February 6, 2026

Location: Stirling, NJ

Solutions provided:

Mark E. contacted PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration after discovering water damage beneath his kitchen sink in Stirling, NJ caused by a failed drain line connection. The loss occurred when a loose or cracked pipe fitting allowed continuous water leakage inside the cabinet cavity, saturating the subfloor and surrounding materials. In Stirling, NJ, under-sink plumbing failures are a common source of hidden Water Damage that can quickly impact cabinetry, insulation, and structural framing. Our technicians arrived at the Stirling, NJ property to perform immediate Water Extraction, removing pooled water and addressing moisture trapped beneath the vinyl flooring. Moisture detection equipment was used throughout the Stirling, NJ home to confirm the extent of saturation inside the wall cavity and toe-kick areas. The homeowner’s insurance policy covered the water damage in Stirling, NJ, including mitigation, dry-out services, and repairs related to the plumbing leak.

Following initial extraction, our team in Stirling, NJ removed compromised base materials and drilled strategic access points to allow proper airflow beneath the cabinetry. High-velocity air movers and commercial-grade dehumidifiers were installed to facilitate comprehensive Structure Drying and prevent secondary issues such as mold growth and wet insulation. Throughout the Water Damage Restoration process in Stirling, NJ, daily moisture readings were recorded to ensure the subfloor and wall studs returned to industry-standard dry levels. Antimicrobial treatments were applied to affected areas within the Stirling, NJ kitchen to reduce the risk of microbial contamination. Detailed photo documentation and drying logs were maintained to support the insurance claim and verify proper restoration procedures. The Stirling, NJ property was fully dried, sanitized, and stabilized, preparing the affected kitchen area for reconstruction and cabinet repairs following the plumbing-related water damage event.
