Fast, Reliable Reconstruction & Cleanup Across Loganville
Reconstruction and cleanup in Loganville usually starts with a phone call after water has already done its work. Most of the homes we rebuild here are 1990s and 2000s tract builds off US-78 where the original lot grading has quietly reversed, sending stormwater toward the foundation instead of away from it. By the time drywall shows mold or a garage wall swells, the damage is well past the point of a quick patch. Wade Ferris has been rebuilding homes like these since 2007, and he still answers his own phone. Call (888) 690-3757 and you’ll get him, not a call center.
We’re Reconstruction & Cleanup specialists who treat Loganville’s clay-soil water intrusion problems as a rebuild job, not a paint-over. That difference matters when your finished basement has been wet twice in three years.
Why Wade’s Restoration of Atlanta Is Loganville’s Preferred Reconstruction & Cleanup Company
Wade publishes his name, his address, and his license number. In a town like Loganville, that still means something. You’ll see him at the hardware store on Highway 78 or pulling into a subdivision off Cooper Road, and he knows that. That’s the accountability model: a neighbor who has to face you again on Saturday is a neighbor who does the job right the first time.
His crew has rebuilt garages, basements, and kitchens across Loganville’s 30052 zip code. The work comes with a 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing, and Wade backs it himself. If something’s not right, one call brings him back. No escalation tree, no corporate runaround.
Response time to Loganville matters because a wet crawl space in July doesn’t wait. Wade heads out from his Atlanta office and can have a crew on-site in Loganville quickly, with a live person on the phone the whole time. Same-day assessment is the norm, not the exception. And if you’re inside Walton County, there’s no trip charge.
Our Reconstruction & Cleanup Services in Loganville
Here’s what we actually do when a Loganville home needs reconstruction after water, fire, or mold damage. These aren’t generic categories. They’re the specific jobs we’re doing in your neighborhoods off US-78, Bay Creek Church Road, and Highway 81.
Full-Service Reconstruction
When the damage goes past cleanup into structural repair, we handle the whole rebuild. That means framing, insulation, drywall, trim, paint, and flooring, coordinated as one job so you’re not juggling six subcontractors. In Loganville’s 1990s-era subdivisions, this often means rebuilding a garage wall that wicked water through a failed bottom seal, or replacing a finished basement wall after repeated stormwater intrusion.
Drywall & Flooring Repair
Loganville homes sit on red clay that compacts unevenly. Half-inch drywall doesn’t flex with a settling slab, so seams crack and corners pop. Pulpy drywall that soaked up water won’t dry flat again. Wade’s crew cuts it out, replaces it, and matches the texture and paint so you can’t tell where the repair ends. Flooring follows: warped laminate, cupped hardwood, soaked carpet pad.
Contents Restoration & Pack-Out
If your garage or basement flooded, the stuff inside it needs to move fast. We pack out, inventory, and clean everything that can be saved. Wade’s team uses XPOWER air movers and Phoenix dehumidifiers to dry contents properly, and we document every item for your insurance claim. The pack-out list becomes part of the adjuster’s file, not just a pile in the driveway.
Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning
After a flood or a fire, carpet and upholstery hold smoke, soot, and mold spores long after the surface looks clean. We use professional-grade cleaning systems to pull contaminants out of the fibers, and we’ll tell you honestly whether the carpet is worth saving or should be replaced. No one wins if we clean a pad that’s already growing mold underneath.

Trusted Brands We Service in Loganville
We don’t cut corners on equipment because Loganville’s humidity and clay soil already stack the deck against you. Our crews run Dri-Eaz and Phoenix dehumidifiers, XPOWER air movers, and B-Air systems on every job. These are the same professional-grade tools used on large commercial losses, brought to your subdivision off US-78. That matters when you’re trying to dry out a crawl space that’s been collecting moisture for six months.
We keep common replacement parts and materials in stock for the specific failures we see in Loganville’s housing stock: vinyl siding repairs, moisture barrier material, drywall sheets, and sealant kits for garage door bottoms. Faster turnaround means less time with open walls in your house.
Common Reconstruction & Cleanup Problems We See in Loganville Homes
- Reversed lot grading on Georgia red clay. The original grade your builder set 20 years ago doesn’t exist anymore. Compacted clay shifts, settles, and channels roof runoff against foundation walls. In Loganville subdivisions off US-78, we see this every single spring after the first heavy storm.
- Failed builder-grade garage door seals. The vinyl bottom seal on a 2003 tract home is brittle by 2020. Wind-driven rain pushes under it, soaks the drywall just inside the garage door, and nobody notices until the wall swells or paint bubbles. By then, it’s a drywall replacement job with possible mold behind the baseboard.
- Uninsulated garage walls and crawl spaces. Most 1990s-2010s Loganville tract homes were built with minimal or no insulation in the garage. Temperature swings create condensation inside wall cavities after even minor water intrusion, which accelerates compound joint failure and peeling paint. It’s a slow failure that reads like wear-and-tear but isn’t.
- Mold in crawl spaces after stormwater intrusion. Loganville sits in the severe-thunderstorm corridor that tracks northeast of Atlanta. When hail and wind strip a few shingles or a downspout clogs, water ends up in the crawl space and the organic debris down there feeds mold. By the time the musty smell reaches the living space, it’s a remediation and rebuild job, not a spray-and-wipe.

FAQs - Reconstruction & Cleanup in Loganville
Red clay expands when wet and contracts when dry, and over 15-25 years that cycle compacts the soil unevenly beneath your slab or foundation. The result is differential settlement, which cracks drywall at corners, separates ceiling joints from walls, and sometimes shifts door frames when the home is in the 1990s-2010s era. In Loganville’s subdivisions off US-78, we regularly find that reversing lot grading compounds this by saturating the clay against the foundation, accelerating the movement. If you’re seeing stair-step cracks in drywall or brick, call (888) 690-3757 for a free assessment. We’ll tell you if it’s a structural issue or cosmetic.
Yes, and this is one of our most common jobs in Loganville. We rebuild finished basements after stormwater intrusion by first fixing the source: regrading the lot, adding or repairing drainage, and sealing the foundation. Then we replace wet framing if needed, hang new drywall, and rebuild flooring. If the basement has flooded more than once, we document every previous intrusion for your insurance file. Call (888) 690-3757 and Wade will walk your basement himself.
Yes. If the crawl space is growing mold, the air that moves through your home carries those spores into anything stored in the garage, basement, or lower level. We pack out the contents, clean what can be saved, and document every item for insurance. We run Phoenix dehumidifiers and XPOWER air movers in the crawl space itself to kill the moisture source before rebuilding. Call (888) 690-3757 to schedule a pack-out and assessment.
Normally within 24 to 48 hours. After a strong thunderstorm moves through Loganville, we prioritize homes with active water intrusion. Wade answers his phone at any hour and can have a crew on your street that day or the next morning. The key with storm-damaged drywall is cutting out the wet material before mold sets, which in Georgia’s summer humidity happens fast. Call (888) 690-3757 and we’ll get moving.
Three things: photos of the damage, a written scope of the repair work, and documentation of the cause, which in Loganville is often reversing lot grading and failed garage door seals. Wade’s crew photographs everything before, during, and after. He takes moisture readings daily and hands you the full log at job’s end. He also talks to your adjuster directly, so you’re never stuck explaining construction terminology to an insurance company. Call (888) 690-3757 for a free assessment, and we’ll get the paper trail started.
