Why Floodline Restoration Co. of Atlanta Is Conley’s Preferred Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Company
We’ve worked enough fire jobs in Conley to know that this community’s building stock doesn’t behave like a suburb’s. The 1960s and 70s flat-roof warehouses along Conley Road, the scattered 1950s brick ranches tucked behind them, and the constant churn of distribution-center tenants near Hartsfield-Jackson’s cargo operations mean the restoration work here is a different animal. Our crews read those buildings the way a mechanic reads an old engine: we know what’s original, what’s been patched, and what’s hiding behind the drywall. That local knowledge is why Conley property owners and facility managers call Floodline first when a fire leaves smoke in the rafters and water in the slab.
Curt Bowman founded this company in 2010 around a dispatch board, not a sales desk, and that’s still how we run jobs in Conley. Every technician who walks onto your property is background-checked, uniformed, and certified to IICRC, RIA, and IFA standards. Our work carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise, the Keystone Standard, in writing. If it’s not done right, we make it right. No paperwork battles, no arguing. That’s a square deal, and it’s how we’ve built our reputation across Conley.
Our Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Services in Conley
Emergency Board-Up & Tarping
After a fire in Conley, your first problem is the hole the fire left in your envelope. A burned-out loading dock door on a warehouse off Conley Road or a shattered window on a 1950s brick ranch on the residential streets near the South River tributary is an open invitation to weather, theft, and more damage. We board up and tarp within hours of your call, using heavy plywood, reinforced tarps, and structural shoring where the roof deck or wall framing has been fire-cut. The goal is simple: freeze the loss, secure the site, and stop the spread while the insurance scope is written.
Smoke & Soot Removal
Smoke in Conley buildings doesn’t behave politely. In the flat-roof warehouses with multiple layers of patched membrane, smoke travels into saturated insulation and substrate and comes back weeks later as a sour, recurring odor. We don’t clean surfaces and call it done. Our crews use Dri-Eaz HEPA 500 air scrubbers and XPOWER air movers to pull smoke out of the air and off every surface, including inside duct runs, above drop ceilings, and behind paneling. For a Conley warehouse fire, that’s the difference between a building that smells clean for a week and one that stays clean.
Odor Removal & Deodorization
Odor after a fire is a chemistry problem, not a fragrance problem. Soot particles embed in porous materials, drywall, insulation, and the grain of wood framing, and they keep off-gassing until they’re removed or sealed. We use thermal fogging, hydroxyl generators, and in severe cases ozone treatment to neutralize smoke odor at the molecular level in Conley homes and commercial buildings. For older brick ranches built without modern vapor barriers, we pay particular attention to the cavities behind paneling and under slab-edge framing, where odor hides long after the visible cleanup is finished.
Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out
When we pack out contents from a Conley property, we inventory everything, photograph everything, and clean what’s restorable. That matters for two reasons. First, older homes in Conley’s residential pockets hold a lifetime of furniture, papers, and belongings that can’t be replaced with a check. Second, insurance carriers want documentation, and our photo-documented pack-out gives the adjuster exactly what they need to approve the claim. We clean, deodorize, and store contents in our secure facility until your structure is ready for them to come home. And we bill the carrier directly, so you’re not playing messenger between us and your insurance company.

Trusted Brands We Service in Conley
We work on every type of building in Conley, from 1950s brick ranches on residential streets to 1970s distribution centers off Conley Road. That means we service and restore the systems inside them, whatever the make or model. Our crews use professional-grade Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, and B-Air equipment to dry, deodorize, and restore fire-damaged structures, and we keep the parts and materials needed for Conley’s older building stock on our trucks so we don’t burn a day waiting on a supply run. Whether it’s a warehouse with a fire-cut purlin or a ranch house with smoke in the ductwork, we show up ready to work, not ready to order parts.
Common Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Problems We See in Conley Homes
- Asbestos triggers on 1960s-70s Conley Road warehouses. Cutting into walls or floors on buildings from this era almost always means transite pipe insulation or VAT floor tile, and that triggers a mandatory asbestos survey before structural repairs can proceed. Crews that miss this underbid the job and then hit the homeowner with a five-figure change order mid-project when the survey comes back positive.
- Surface-only smoke cleanup on flat-roof warehouses with patched membranes. Smoke travels into saturated insulation and substrate through gaps in those old patch layers, and if you only clean the visible surfaces, the odor returns in two or three weeks. We pull back the membrane, dry the substrate, and clean the cavity before we rebuild.
- Fire suppression water damage that turns to mold within 48-72 hours. Georgia’s summer humidity averages above 70%, and Conley’s poorly ventilated older buildings trap that moisture. A fire in a 1950s brick ranch means hundreds of gallons of water in the slab, the walls, and the framing. If drying doesn’t start the same day, mold reaches actionable levels fast, and the restoration scope doubles or triples.
- Galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drain lines that were failing before the fire. Conley’s residential housing stock dates from the mid-1950s to the early 1970s, and the original plumbing is at the end of its service life. A fire that cracks a wall or heats a crawl space often accelerates what was already a slow failure, and the water damage ends up more extensive than the fire damage itself.

FAQs - Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Conley
Because the 1960s and 70s warehouses along Conley Road were frequently built with transite pipe insulation, which contains asbestos cement, and VAT floor tile, which also contains asbestos. As soon as structural repairs require cutting into a wall or disturbing flooring, federal and Georgia regulations trigger a mandatory asbestos survey. That survey typically costs $1,200-$3,500 and adds three to ten days to the timeline before structural work can start. Crews that skip or overlook this step are the ones that hit you with a five-figure change order when the survey comes back positive. We build the survey into our scope from day one. Call (888) 832-2758 to get a written scope that accounts for it.
Mold can reach actionable levels within 48 to 72 hours. A fire in one of Conley’s older brick ranches means hundreds of gallons of water have soaked into the slab, the walls, and the framing, and those homes were built without modern vapor barriers. Combine that trapped moisture with Georgia’s summer humidity, which averages above 70%, and you have perfect mold conditions almost immediately. That’s why we start drying with Phoenix 200 HT thermal dryers and B-Air air movers the same day we arrive, and why we recommend calling us before the fire department has even left the driveway. The clock is running.
Smoke that traveled into the roof assembly through gaps in the old patched membrane. Conley’s flat-roof warehouse stock has decades of accumulated patch layers, and those seams and splits let smoke push into the saturated insulation and substrate above the ceiling. If you only clean the visible interior surfaces, that trapped smoke keeps off-gassing, and the odor comes back weeks later. We pull back the membrane, dry the substrate with Phoenix 200 HTs and XPOWER air movers, clean the cavity, and then rebuild the roof assembly properly. It’s the only way to make the smell stay gone in a Conley flat-roof building.
Because the initial bid often skipped the asbestos survey, the engineering review, or both. Fire-cut purlins in a 1970s distribution center can’t simply be sistered and closed up. The roof deck, the structural steel, and the wall framing all have to be assessed by a licensed engineer, and if transite pipe insulation or VAT tile is present, that triggers an asbestos survey and abatement before any cutting can happen. Those items typically add $8,000-$25,000 to the job, and a residential-focused restoration crew new to Conley’s industrial stock doesn’t know to include them. We do. Our written scope includes all of it up front, so the number you sign is the number the job costs. Call (888) 832-2758 for a scope that holds.
