Stop Water Loss Before Mold Starts

Water damage restoration services for Jersey City properties

Water from a burst pipe, basement flood, or roof leak spreads fast through flooring, drywall, and framing if it's not removed within hours. You'll see warped floorboards, stained ceilings, and damp walls that won't dry on their own. PNS General Contractor provides water extraction, drying equipment, and repairs that address the source of the leak and the damage it caused. Older properties in Jersey City often have basements prone to flooding, and this service treats both the immediate water and the structural repairs needed afterward.

This service includes water removal using pumps and vacuums, placement of industrial fans and dehumidifiers, plumbing repairs to stop ongoing leaks, drywall replacement, subfloor drying or replacement, and installation of new flooring and trim. If the water came from a failed supply line or drainage issue, the plumbing is repaired before reconstruction begins. You get integrated service from the same contractor, which keeps timelines shorter and prevents gaps between trades.

Key Benefits of This Service

You'll see standing water removed within the first few hours, followed by placement of drying equipment that runs continuously until moisture levels drop to safe ranges. In Jersey City, basements and first floors are the most common areas affected, and drying those spaces properly requires monitoring subfloor moisture and wall cavities. Industrial fans and dehumidifiers are left in place for several days depending on the extent of saturation.

Once drying is complete, you'll notice damaged drywall and flooring removed, exposing studs and joists that are inspected for mold or rot. PNS General Contractor rebuilds those areas with new materials, so walls return to smooth, paintable condition and floors are level and ready for finish installation. Addressing water damage quickly helps prevent long-term structural issues that become expensive if ignored.

This service does not include roof replacement or exterior foundation waterproofing, which are separate projects. It focuses on interior water removal, drying, plumbing repairs, and reconstruction of damaged finishes. If mold is discovered during demolition, additional remediation steps are added to the scope.

What's Included in This Service

Knowing what happens during water damage restoration helps you understand why fast response and proper drying matter more than surface cleanup alone.

How quickly should water be removed?
Water should be extracted within 24 hours to reduce the risk of mold growth and further material damage. The faster drying begins, the less demolition you'll need.
What equipment is used for drying?
High-velocity air movers and commercial dehumidifiers run continuously in affected areas. Moisture meters track progress in walls, subfloors, and framing until readings return to normal.
How long does drying take?
Drying typically takes three to five days depending on the volume of water, materials affected, and airflow in the space. Basements in Jersey City often take longer due to limited ventilation.
What gets replaced after drying?
Drywall that wicked water above two feet, flooring that warped or delaminated, and any framing that shows rot or mold are removed and replaced. Trim and baseboards are reinstalled after walls and floors are finished.
Can you fix the plumbing issue that caused the leak?
Yes, plumbing repairs are included as part of the service. Supply lines, drain pipes, or fixture connections are repaired or replaced before reconstruction begins.
