Homes are mostly single-family, with 18% in buildings of 5 or more units, and 41% are rented.

What to do first in Redan

Most Redan homes were built after 1980, with 28% older than that, so the main shutoff is usually a quarter-turn valve in the garage, a utility closet or the crawlspace. Close it at the first sign of water. Next, turn off the breakers that feed the wet rooms. Photograph the leak, the stains and the floor before anything moves. Lift furniture onto blocks and carry rugs and electronics to a dry room, because hardwood and laminate swell fast and can need water-damaged floor repair. Renters, in 41% of homes here, should text the photos to the owner. Then call; the phone is answered 24/7 for Redan and the Decatur area.

Do you take water damage calls in Redan?

Yes, including the area around Stone Mountain. Call (833) 728-2327 at any hour for a leak, a flood or a sewage backup in Redan; the local restoration company inspects, writes the estimate and starts once you approve it.

How soon can a crew get to Redan?

Ask on the call: the company that serves Redan gives you its arrival time before you hang up. In the meantime, stop the source, lift furniture off wet floors and keep people out of rooms with standing water.

Will my insurance pay for water damage in Georgia?

It depends on the cause. A burst pipe or appliance failure is usually covered under a standard Georgia homeowners policy; floodwater needs a flood policy and sewer backup needs an endorsement (Triple-I). The restoration company documents the damage; you handle the claim with your insurer.

Are older homes in Redan more likely to have water damage?

The age of a home changes both the cause and the job. Older homes in DeKalb County are more likely to have worn supply lines or drains, and their materials, such as plaster and plank subfloors, can take longer to dry.
