PNE Construction: Water Damage Restoration & Roofing in Pittsburgh, PA

Common signs include unexplained increases in your water bill, musty odors, damp spots on walls or floors, peeling paint, and the sound of running water when no fixtures are on. In older Pittsburgh homes, especially in neighborhoods like Bloomfield or Friendship, hidden leaks often go unnoticed until they cause significant damage. If you notice any of these signs, it's best to call a professional for a thorough inspection.

After a flash flood, we start by extracting standing water and using industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to dry the crawl space thoroughly. We then inspect for mold, rot, and structural damage. In areas like Mount Washington or the South Side, where crawl spaces are common, we also install vapor barriers and improve drainage to prevent future moisture problems. Our goal is to restore the space and protect your home's foundation.

The solution involves immediate water extraction and drying, followed by identifying the source of the flood, such as overwhelmed sump pumps or foundation cracks. PNE Construction provides full restoration, including repairing damaged drywall, flooring, and insulation. For homes in low-lying areas like the North Shore or Allegheny Riverfront, we also recommend long-term fixes like French drains or sump pump upgrades to reduce future flood risks.
