Cobb County
Water damage & mold help in Marietta, GA
Marietta is the Cobb County seat, northwest of Atlanta. In September 2009, historic rains flooded creeks across metro Atlanta, including Cobb County, damaging thousands of homes. Tall oaks and pines bring trees down on roofs during storms and ice, and red clay soils and humid summers lead to wet basements and crawlspaces.

Marietta homes and water damage
Homes near Marietta Square include historic Victorian and early-1900s houses, while East Cobb has 1970s–1990s homes with basements and crawlspaces. Many have aging water heaters and polybutylene-era plumbing. Finished basements are common in East Cobb, so a failed sump pump or water heater can soak carpet, drywall and stored belongings at once.
Flash flooding
The 2009 floods showed how quickly creeks like Sope Creek and Rottenwood Creek rise in heavy rain.
Falling trees
Storms and ice bring large oaks and pines down on roofs.
Basement seepage
Red clay soils hold water against foundation walls after heavy rain.
Crawlspace mold
Humid summers keep crawlspaces damp, causing mold and wood rot.
Aging plumbing

Ice storms
Winter ice storms coat trees and power lines across Cobb County, bringing limbs down on roofs and cutting power long enough to freeze pipes.
