What to do first in Acworth
Acworth runs a little colder than the rest of Cobb County. NOAA climate normals show 68 nights a year at or below 32 degrees, against 65 countywide. When a pipe splits on one of those nights, close the main shutoff first. It is often in the garage, the basement or the crawl space, where the line enters the house.
Then switch off the breakers for the wet rooms, if you can reach the panel on dry ground. Photograph the split pipe, the ceiling, the walls and the floor before cleaning anything. Carry rugs, papers and electronics to a dry room. Renters hold 39% of Acworth homes, so tenants should send those photos to the landlord in writing. Burst pipe cleanup often means opening a wall to dry the framing behind the break. The phone line is answered 24/7.
