Why Snellville Homeowners Choose Wade’s Restoration of Atlanta
Wade Ferris founded this company in 2007 and put his name on the truck. He publishes his address and license number, and when you call at two in the morning, that’s Wade answering. The neighborhoods of Norris Lake and Centerville know his crew by sight now because they’ve been through enough polybutylene pipe failures and spring storm losses together. Ask anyone on your street who’s had water damage whether the restoration company they used kept them posted daily. Most couldn’t say. Wade hands every client a full moisture log at the end of the job because he takes readings every single day. Almost nobody in this trade does that. Background-checked, uniformed technicians show up with Dri-Eaz and Phoenix drying equipment, and Wade documents everything with photos so your insurance adjuster sees exactly what the crew found, in order, with dates on it.
Damage Restoration Services We Offer in Snellville
Water Damage Restoration
A supply line that splits in a Snellville slab-on-grade home can saturate flooring and wick up drywall within hours. Wade’s team locates the source, extracts the standing water, and sets up a drying plan with daily moisture readings until the structure is dry.

Mold Remediation
Snellville’s humid summers turn hidden leaks into visible mold faster than most homeowners expect. Wade’s crew contains the affected area, removes contaminated material, and treats the space so mold doesn’t just come back in six weeks.

Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration
After a kitchen fire or an electrical blaze, smoke works its way into every porous surface in the house. Wade stabilizes the structure, cleans what can be saved, and coordinates directly with your adjuster on the rebuild scope.

Storm & Disaster Restoration
Spring and summer thunderstorms roll through Gwinnett County with hail and straight-line winds that peel shingles and push water under siding. When water pools against a foundation and finds its way into a crawlspace, Wade starts extraction that day.
Wade’s crew handles tarping, board-up, and structural drying after storm events throughout Snellville.
Sewage Cleanup
A backed-up sewer line in a 1980s subdivision is a health hazard, not a DIY project. Wade’s team removes contaminated water, disinfects all affected surfaces, and disposes of ruined materials under proper containment.
This is a job for a professional, not a plunger and a mop. Wade handles it with the right PPE and a written scope before work starts.
Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup
When an accident or traumatic event leaves a property in need of professional cleanup, Wade handles it with discretion and thoroughness. This work requires specialized training and disposal protocols.
Wade responds directly and never sends a subcontracted crew for this kind of call.
Reconstruction & Cleanup
Once the drying equipment comes out, the rebuilding starts. Wade’s crew handles drywall, flooring, paint, and finish work so you’re not juggling a restoration company and a separate contractor.
Wade writes the scope, agrees on it with you in writing, and sees it through to the final walkthrough.

Why Snellville’s Climate & Housing Affect Damage Restoration
Snellville grew fast during Gwinnett County’s 1980s and 1990s suburban boom, which means a lot of the housing stock was built with polybutylene supply lines, gray plastic pipe that deteriorates from the inside out. Combine chlorinated municipal water with 30-year-old pipe, and a sudden full failure isn’t rare, it’s expected. Wade’s crew has pulled back drywall near Scenic Highway (SR-124) and found original polybutylene lines still carrying water. The bigger problem is detection. Many of these homes have minimal insulation around attic supply runs, so one hard freeze can split multiple lines at once. That’s a multi-room water loss that sometimes sits for days when homeowners are traveling. By the time it’s discovered, mold is already moving through the drywall. That’s why water and mold restoration together are the signature call in this city, more than in the newer subdivisions further out.
Snellville sits in the Georgia Piedmont, where red clay soil drains about as well as a bathtub. After a heavy thunderstorm, water pools against slab foundations and seeps into crawlspaces instead of soaking into the ground. What looks like a minor storm event from the street turns into a moisture problem under the house that doesn’t dry out on its own. Wade’s Phoenix drying systems and his daily moisture readings are what keep that secondary damage from becoming a full mold remediation job.

FAQs About Damage Restoration in Snellville
For water extraction or sewage backup, Wade heads out immediately, and most Snellville homes are reached in under an hour. Call (888) 690-3757 and you’ll speak to Wade directly, not a dispatcher or an answering service.
Most homeowner policies cover sudden water damage, storm damage, and fire, but the details depend on your policy. Wade deals with the insurance adjuster directly, sends photo documentation, and makes sure nothing gets lost between you and the carrier.
If the affected area is larger than about 10 square feet, or if water has been sitting for more than 48 hours, a surface cleaning won’t address what’s growing inside the drywall. Wade will tell you straight, because he’s going to see you again at the hardware store. Call (888) 690-3757 for an honest assessment.
If the work isn’t done right, Wade makes it right. It’s written into every water, fire, and mold contract. Not a verbal assurance. A line in the agreement with his name on it.
The combination of chlorinated municipal water, 25-to-40-year-old gray polybutylene supply lines, and Gwinnett County’s often hard ground-freeze cycles makes sudden pipe splits common in the 30078 and 30039 ZIP codes. If you have original plumbing from the 1980s or early 1990s and notice unexplained water stains, call (888) 690-3757 before it becomes a full split.

- Rowena Thackeray"He talked me through what would happen next while I was still standing in the water crying down the phone at him. That was worth as much to me that night as the equipment."
