Why Powder Springs homes take on water
Three creeks around Powder Springs went well over flood stage in September 2009. For a break at the street, the city points residents to the Cobb County Water System.
Powder Springs Creek and Noses Creek
In September 2009, Powder Springs Creek crested at 19.82 feet (flood stage 12) and Noses Creek at 23.20 feet (flood stage 11). Sweetwater Creek at Powder Springs reached 31.45 feet against a 13-foot flood stage. National Weather Service, Epic Floods of 2009
Pipes in crawl spaces and garages
Cobb County Water's winter guide tells residents to wrap pipes in crawl spaces, garages, and exterior walls, and to learn where the main shutoff is before a freeze. Cobb County Water System, Winter Weather Water Guide
Sudden leaks like a burst pipe are usually covered by a standard Georgia homeowners policy. Sump pump and sewer backups need a water backup endorsement, and flooding from outside needs separate flood insurance.
Every job is measured on site, so nobody can give an honest price over the phone. Nationally, Angi puts the average at about $3,800, which is not a quote or a Powder Springs price.
Water damage questions from Powder Springs homeowners
Who do I call after hours for a water emergency in Powder Springs?
The City of Powder Springs lists the Cobb County Water emergency dispatch number, 770-419-6201, for after-hours water emergencies, and 770-419-6200 for non-emergency customer service on weekdays. For water inside your home, shut off the main and call us.
Does insurance pay when a creek floods my Powder Springs basement?
Not a standard homeowners policy. Water that rises from a creek or runs in from outside is flooding, and only a flood policy covers it. Water from a burst pipe or a failed water heater inside the house is a different claim and is usually covered after the deductible.
