Water Damage Restoration in Concord Grove, GA
Concord Grove is one of a dozen subdivisions along Concord Road on the southwest edge of Smyrna that carry the Concord name, built from the 1980s through the 2000s on the wooded land above the Nickajack Creek corridor. The houses are two-story traditionals and some ranches on medium lots, many with a basement on the downhill side and the water heater in the basement or the garage. The creek, the covered bridge, and the ruins of the old woolen mill are within a short walk.
Nickajack Creek is the fact of life here. It rises in Marietta and runs down the southwest side of Smyrna to the Chattahoochee at Mableton, and in a wet week it comes up fast. The lots closest to it took water in September 2009, when a week of rain put more than 20 inches on parts of Cobb, and they sit in a floodplain that has not moved since.
This site puts Concord Grove homeowners through by phone to an independent local water damage provider. The provider meters the basement and the crawl space and writes the scope from the readings.
Concord Grove water damage when the creek comes up
Creek water in a basement or a crawl space is a creek flood cleanup, and the carpet, pad, and drywall it touched come out rather than dry. A basement that only weeps along the wall after rain is a water extraction and a drying job. A tank that let go in the basement mechanical room is water heater leak cleanup.
The bridge that has watched the creek since the 1850s
The Concord Covered Bridge Historic District, Cobb County's first historic district, centers on the covered bridge over Nickajack Creek that has carried traffic since the 1850s, along with Ruff's Mill and the remains of the Concord woolen mill. The creek that powered those mills is the same one that comes over the bank behind the newer houses. Rebuild permits go through the City of Smyrna, and outside flooding is a separate flood policy, not a homeowner policy.
Call (770) 830-3578 and say where the water came from. An independent local water damage provider serving Concord Grove takes it from there.
