Upper East Side Apartment Leak Cleanup
A dishwasher supply line failed in a two-bedroom apartment on East 82nd Street, sending water across the kitchen floor and into the adjacent hallway. We extracted standing water, removed damaged baseboards, and set up drying equipment. The hardwood floor was saved through quick extraction and controlled drying over three days. Baseboards were replaced and the kitchen was repainted where water had damaged the lower wall finish.
Condo Drying After Plumbing Issue
An upstairs bathroom pipe burst in a Yorkville condo building, sending water down through the ceiling into the unit below. By the time the water was shut off, the living room ceiling was saturated and water had run down the walls. We removed a section of damaged ceiling drywall, dried the cavity and wall framing, and monitored moisture levels for five days. Once dry, we patched the ceiling and repainted the affected walls.
Ceiling Water Damage Repair
A slow leak from a radiator connection in the unit above caused a spreading water stain on the bedroom ceiling of a Lenox Hill apartment. The resident noticed the stain growing over several weeks before calling us. We opened the ceiling to inspect the damage, found saturated insulation and damp framing, and dried everything out with targeted air movers. The ceiling was then re-drywalled, taped, and painted to match.
Wall Moisture Cleanup
A Carnegie Hill apartment had persistent moisture along an exterior wall that became worse during heavy rain. The building's exterior had a crack allowing water to seep in behind the interior finish. After the building addressed the exterior issue, we handled the interior side — removing damaged drywall sections, drying the wall cavity, treating for early-stage mold, and rebuilding the wall with fresh drywall and paint.
Small Office Water Issue
A small office space in a mixed-use building on the Upper East Side experienced flooding from a broken water heater in a utility closet. Water spread across the carpeted office floor and into a storage area. We extracted the water, removed the saturated carpet padding, and dried the concrete subfloor and walls. The carpet was professionally cleaned and re-installed once everything was confirmed dry.
Residential Drying Job
A washing machine overflow in a pre-war apartment on East 79th Street sent water across the laundry area and into the adjacent bedroom. The hardwood floors absorbed water quickly due to their age. We extracted surface water immediately, then set up a combination of low-profile air movers and dehumidifiers to dry the flooring without causing excessive cupping. After four days of monitored drying, the floors returned to acceptable moisture levels without needing replacement.
