Getting water out of a Smyrna house begins with whatever is standing on the floor, then turns to the damp that hides in pad, baseboard and drywall. Carpet that squelches underfoot is the usual sign. Is yours still wet after the mopping? Call (678) 679-5538 and name the rooms.

Cobb County rain, in numbers
The weather station at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson airport logged 50.43 inches of rain a year across NOAA's 1991 to 2020 period, with 14.9 days a year at an inch or more. The wettest month is July, which averages 4.75 inches. A street in Smyrna can see more or less than the airport did.
September 2024 showed the other end of the range. National Weather Service radar estimates for Hurricane Helene came to 8 to 10 inches on average over Cobb County, and the service counted eleven river gauges with flooding.
The homes are mixed in age. Census estimates for ZIP 30080 give a median build year of 1989, give or take a year, and 7,524 of its 27,206 housing units, or 27.7 percent, date from before 1980.

Eight kinds of water trouble for homes in Smyrna, Marietta and Mableton, each with its own page: wet carpet, split pipes, sewage, mold and storm leaks.
Standing water
Clean water on a floor and a sewer backup
Sewage backup cleanup in Smyrna covers dark, foul water that surfaced at a floor drain, tub or toilet, along with every floor and wall it reached. Keep out of the room while the pipe question gets sorted. Did the backup stop? Call (678) 679-5538 and list which drains were involved.

A split pipe and a stain overhead
Burst pipe water damage in Smyrna begins when a supply line splits and sprays or seeps into a wall, a ceiling or a crawl space. The water keeps coming until the line is shut off. Wet drywall near a pipe run? Call (678) 679-5538 and say where the damp is.

In a Smyrna house, a ceiling or wall leak turns up as a brown circle, a drip at a light, bubbling paint or a ceiling that sags. The stain is often far from the real source. Watching a spot that keeps growing? Call (678) 679-5538 and say where it sits and when it started.

Appliance trouble and the damp it leaves
A washer hose, a dishwasher line, an ice maker tube or a tired tank can all let go in a Smyrna house, and the water often travels well past the appliance before anyone sees it. Puddle by the washer? Call (678) 679-5538, name the machine and say how long water has been coming out.

After water damage in a Smyrna home, mold often announces itself with a musty smell or dark speckling on a wall, ceiling or baseboard that was wet at some point. It lives on moisture. Spots where a leak used to be? Call (678) 679-5538 and say when the area got wet.

Wet basements and storm leaks
In Smyrna, water in a basement or crawl space might trace back to heavy rain, a sump pump that quit, a cracked foundation or a plumbing line. Standing water in the lower level? Call (678) 679-5538 and give the depth and what you think caused it.

After a hard rain, a roof leak in Smyrna can show itself through damp attic insulation, a ceiling stain or water around a window frame. The stain may sit far from the spot where the water got in. Did the storm leave a wet room? Call (678) 679-5538 and describe where it showed up.
Read this job: Storm damageFive things worth having in hand
- The street address, with the town named
- The rooms that are wet, and roughly how far the water has traveled
- A guess at the source, and the time it first showed
- How old the house, the water heater and the washer are
- Whether you own, manage or rent the place. A renter's first message goes to the landlord or property manager.
