What gets dried and kept, and what leaves in a bag

Water does not treat every material alike. The public pages sort things by how they soak.

Hard surfaces that scrub clean are the easy keepers. For mold on those, EPA's advice is detergent and water, and then a thorough drying.

Soft, absorbent things are harder to save. After floodwater, CDC's throw-away list takes in drywall, rugs, cloth and wall coverings that cannot be disinfected. EPA adds that carpet or ceiling tile with mold in it may have to be replaced.

Lifting a rug to dry the floor under it is one job, and cutting out wet drywall is another. Which rooms land on which side is a decision for the contractor, made after a look. Each of the eight water pages shows how that plays out for one kind of leak.

Six places, six sets of local lines

  • Cartersville, GACity hall on North Public Square, and a city-run gas system with its own leak line
  • Emerson, GAAbout 585 occupied homes, with city hall on Highway 293
  • Euharlee, GAStrung along Euharlee Creek, with city hall on Burge's Mill Road
  • White, GAWhere Highway 411 meets I-75, inside Cartersville's gas service area
  • Taylorsville, GAA town of 157 occupied homes and a median build year of 1938
  • Rydal, GAA ZIP code, 30171, with no city hall of its own, so the county answers

One call, said in your own words

The number on this site connects to a local restoration contractor who works in Cartersville, Emerson, Euharlee, White, Taylorsville and Rydal. Tell the contractor what is wet, where the water seems to start and whether it is still moving. From there it goes one step at a time.

Owners and landlords are who this number is for. If you rent, the person who owns the building hears about the leak first, since repairs to it go through them. A caller outside the six places above is outside what this number covers.

Why two wet houses are two different jobs

A damp corner and a soaked hallway are not the same job. Five things set the size: how many rooms and floors the water reached, how clean the water was, which materials it soaked, how deep it hid, and how long it sat before anyone looked.

The read on sizing up a wet house takes the five in turn and names the public page behind each. It carries no price list. A contractor sizes a job after looking at it.

How old the houses are, and who rents them

Census estimates for 2020-2024 give the median Cartersville house a build year of 1990, give or take 3 years. In ZIP 30120, where the office sits, the median is 1992, give or take 2. Euharlee runs newer at 1996 (give or take 1) and the Rydal ZIP, 30171, reads 1995 (give or take 3). White shows 1992 with a wider margin of 6. Emerson reads 1979, but only about 585 homes are occupied there, so the margin is 14 years. Taylorsville reads 1938, and the Census prints no margin for it.

Pipes and water heaters from the 1980s and 1990s may be on their second round. The contractor may ask how old yours are.

Renting varies. Renters occupy 3,766 of Cartersville's 9,230 occupied homes, about 41 percent (margin 566 homes), against 105 of 1,388 in Euharlee. Tenants start with the building's owner. Owners and landlords can call (678) 288-4775.

Four times the phone call waits

  • Water near outlets, cords, light fixtures or the panel. Keep to dry ground and leave switches alone. CDC puts the main power switch within your reach only when the route to it is dry; if the route is wet, it is an electrician's task. A spark or any burning smell means leaving the house; then use 911 or the electric utility.

  • A smell of gas. Get out before doing anything else, and touch no switch or flame on the way. Once outside, 911 takes the report, and so does your gas company: Cartersville Gas System, at 770-387-5642, answers for its own customers, and if your bill says Atlanta Gas Light, its line is 877.427.4321.

  • Dark water or a sewage smell rising from a drain. Stay out of it. CDC warns that floodwater may carry sewage; children keep clear, hands get washed after any contact, and food it reached is thrown away.

  • A ceiling that sags, bulges or drips. Nobody stands under it, and people and pets stay out of that room. The Red Cross treats a sagging wet ceiling as heavy and dangerous. If it comes down on someone, use 911.
