Emergency Restoration Services for Marietta’s Historic Homes, Apartments and Businesses — From the Square to Kennesaw Mountain

Marietta is the county seat of Cobb and the oldest city in our service area, which means 1850s houses on Church Street, 1950s ranches from the Bell Bomber years, and thousands of apartments along Franklin Gateway and Delk Road all calling the same number. When a cast-iron drain backs up under a Whitlock Avenue bungalow, a kitchen fire starts in a restaurant on the Square, or a washer line floods the unit above yours off Powers Ferry, one team responds 24 hours a day and stays through cleanup, drying, repairs and full reconstruction.

Marietta is one of the 21 markets in our core service area. The unincorporated neighborhoods east of I-75 with Marietta addresses have their own East Cobb page; this one is for the city itself. (404) 983-0966, any hour.

Why local knowledge matters

What Puts Marietta Properties at Risk

A city that burned three times in the 1850s and once more in 1864 knows something about fire. Today the calls are water, mostly — from pipes older than the people living with them.

  1. Historic homes and the plumbing inside them

    The Church-Cherokee, Whitlock and Washington Avenue districts hold houses from the 1840s to the 1920s. Galvanized and cast-iron lines, additions plumbed in every decade since, old wiring and balloon framing that lets a small fire move fast: these homes need a crew that knows how to dry plaster and heart-pine without destroying them. See water damage repair and fire & smoke damage.

  2. Postwar ranches and crawl spaces

    South and west Marietta filled with 1950s–60s ranches for the Bell Bomber and Lockheed workforce. Seventy-year-old cast-iron drains crack and back up, slab leaks show up as warm spots on the floor, and the crawl spaces hold moisture all summer — where mold starts. See mold remediation.

  3. Apartments, hotels and the hospital district

    Franklin Gateway, Delk Road, Powers Ferry and Roswell Street carry more apartment units than anywhere else in Cobb, plus the hotels along I-75 and the medical offices around Kennestone. A failed line upstairs is a loss on every floor below; a sprinkler discharge in a hotel is a loss on a whole wing. See multifamily & commercial restoration.

  4. Sope Creek, Rottenwood Creek and the mountain runoff

    Rain that falls on Kennesaw Mountain ends up in Marietta’s basements. Noonday Creek, Sope Creek and Rottenwood Creek all rise fast, the low lots along them flood, and the old hardwoods in the historic districts come down in spring storms. See flooding cleanup and storm damage.

A Few Things About Marietta

  • Mary’s town

    Marietta is believed to be named for Mary Cobb, wife of Senator Thomas Willis Cobb — the man the county is named for. The first plot was laid out in 1833; the town was recognized on December 19, 1834.

  • The Great Locomotive Chase

    Andrews’ Raiders spent the night of April 11, 1862 at the Kennesaw House on the Square before boarding the train and seizing The General at Big Shanty the next morning.

  • A city that burned

    Fires destroyed much of Marietta three times in the 1850s, and Union troops set the town ablaze in November 1864. The Kennesaw House was one of only four commercial buildings left standing.

  • Oakton

    Built in 1838, Oakton House is the oldest continuously occupied home in Marietta. It served as a Confederate headquarters during the 1864 Battle of Kennesaw Mountain.

  • The Big Chicken

    The 56-foot steel chicken on Cobb Parkway went up in 1963. Locals give directions by it, and the story goes that pilots landing at Dobbins do too.

  • Bombers and baseball

    The Bell Bomber plant built B-29s here in World War II and became today’s Lockheed Martin plant beside Dobbins Air Reserve Base. In 1983, East Marietta National won the Little League World Series.

Questions

Marietta Restoration FAQs

Is my address Marietta or East Cobb? Does it matter?

Not to us. If your mail says Marietta, we serve you — inside the city limits (30060, 30064, 30067, 30008) or in the unincorporated neighborhoods east of I-75 (30062, 30066, 30068), which we cover on our East Cobb page. Same crew, same number, 24 hours a day.

How quickly can Verus get to Marietta?

Marietta is across the Perimeter from our Norcross base — I-285 to I-75, or through Roswell on GA-120. We’re open around the clock; call or text (404) 983-0966 and we’ll give you an honest arrival window and tell you what to do in the meantime — shutting off the water, staying out of a fire-damaged room, photographing the damage.

Can you restore a historic home without wrecking it?

Yes, and it’s the whole point. Plaster, heart-pine floors, original trim and brick foundations dry differently than drywall and OSB, and a crew that demos everything wet will take a 1900 house with it. We dry in place wherever the moisture readings allow, remove only what has to go, document everything, and rebuild to match. If your home is in a historic district we work within the review requirements.

I manage an apartment community on Franklin Gateway or Delk Road. Can you handle a multi-unit loss?

Yes. We dry and restore each affected unit, document every unit separately for the property’s claim and the residents’ renter’s policies, coordinate access and communication with your office, and handle the repairs so residents can get back in. One point of contact for the whole loss.

The sewer backed up into my 1950s ranch. What do I do?

Keep people and pets out of it — sewer water carries bacteria, and anything porous it touches (carpet, pad, drywall, insulation) has to come out. Don’t run water in the house until the line is cleared. Photograph what you can from a distance and call us; we extract, remove the contaminated materials, disinfect, dry and rebuild, and document it for your claim. Many policies need a sewer-backup endorsement, so check yours.

What should I do first if I find water or fire damage in Marietta?

Make sure everyone is safe, stop the source if you can do so safely (shut off the main water valve; after a fire, don’t touch soot or run the HVAC), photograph the damage, and call (404) 983-0966. We’re on the way.

Marietta has been rebuilding since 1864. When something goes wrong at your property, you shouldn’t have to explain the neighborhood — or the century it was built in — to the people fixing it.
