Attic Leak from Roof Deterioration
Norwood, NJ • Completed September 2024
A Norwood homeowner discovered an attic leak when they noticed water stains on the ceiling of the upper floor. Investigation revealed that the roof membrane had deteriorated in multiple areas, allowing water to penetrate during rain events. The homeowner had never inspected the attic, so the leak had been occurring for weeks before discovery. Water had already begun soaking the insulation and the structural framing. Our response included water extraction, comprehensive roof assessment, and coordination with a roofing contractor for permanent roof replacement. We also documented the deterioration to help with insurance claims.

Restore, Protect and Beyond Repair
Our Team
We Know Jersey Weather
Nor'easters, flash floods from summer storms, and freeze-thaw cycles that crack foundations— we've seen what North Jersey weather throws at homes. Your basement flooded when that storm drain backed up? We've been there. We know the drill.
Local Construction Styles
Split-levels from the '60s, century-old Victorians, garden apartments, and newer townhomes— Bergen County has them all. We know which basements leak, which crawl spaces need work, and how to navigate tight Jersey properties where the trucks barely fit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers for Norwood residents
Do Norwood crawl spaces trap moisture?
Yes, especially in spring. We install vapor barriers, dry framing to <18% moisture, and add sealed dehumidifiers to stop odors.
What about recurring sump failures?
We add battery backups, dual pumps, and high-water alarms. Redirect discharge lines to prevent re-entry near foundation walls.
Can paneling hide moisture?
Yes. We meter behind panels, ventilate cavities, and only remove where readings exceed safe thresholds—preserving Norwood finishes.
Do you handle odor removal?
HEPA filtration plus antimicrobial treatment eliminates musty smells. Persistent odors may need hydroxyl or ozone treatments.
