Call (888) 832-2758 any hour and a live dispatcher answers, then a certified crew heads your way.

Why Floodline Restoration Co. of Atlanta Is Kennesaw’s Preferred Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Company
Since Curt Bowman founded Floodline Restoration Co. in 2010, the model has stayed simple: answer the phone with a person, send background-checked uniformed technicians, and stand behind the finished work in writing. Kennesaw homeowners tell us the same thing, that the 90-Day Done Right Promise, which we call the Keystone Standard, is the reason they passed our name to a neighbor on Stilesboro Road or a daughter over in Acworth. We bill the carrier directly when a claim is involved, and we hand the homeowner a written scope before any work begins, so there are no surprises on the bill and no arguing about what was agreed.
Response time into Kennesaw is fast because our dispatch is live around the clock. We do not route calls to a call center or a voicemail tree at 2 a.m. A real person picks up, gets your address, and sends a crew that knows the difference between a due-west sun-baked vinyl siding job on a vintage 1990s Bentwater home and a brick-front raised ranch off Kennesaw Due West Road. Every technician is trained to IICRC, RIA, and IFA standards, and every job, whether it’s a fire in a powder room or a full kitchen loss, gets the same documentation and the same guarantee. That consistent standard is why the phone keeps ringing from Kennesaw, and why we plan to be answering it for a long time.
Our Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Services in Kennesaw
Fire Damage Cleanup
After the fire is out, the damage spreads through soot, water from the fire suppression effort, and charred building materials. In Kennesaw homes built in the 1980s and 1990s, the same slab foundations and shallow crawl spaces that complicate water losses also mean runoff from a fire hose has nowhere to go but into the footing. Our crews remove charred debris, extract the standing water, and stabilize the structure before odor or mold gets a foothold. We document every step with photos for your insurance file, and we work from a written scope you approve before demolition starts.
Smoke & Soot Removal
Soot from a house fire is acidic and will etch glass, corrode metal fixtures, and permanently stain painted walls if it sits too long. In a Kennesaw two-story on a quiet cul-de-sac in Summerhour, the smoke rises and settles in the upstairs bedrooms even when the fire starts in the kitchen. We clean walls, ceilings, trim, hard surfaces, and light fixtures using professional-grade Dri-Eaz air scrubbers and Phoenix dehumidifiers paired with soft media blasting where needed. The goal is to remove residue from every surface, not paint over it, because painted-over soot returns as a stain and a smell within months.
Odor Removal & Deodorization
Smoke smell does not leave on its own. It lives in drywall, insulation, subfloor, HVAC ducts, and even the books on your shelves. In Kennesaw’s humid climate, that embedded odor gets reactivated every time relative humidity climbs above 80 percent, which is most of the Georgia summer. Our odor removal process uses thermal fogging, hydroxyl generators, and duct cleaning to neutralize smoke molecules rather than mask them. We have pulled stubborn smoke odor out of entire Kennesaw homes, including a split-level near the Town Center Mall where the smell kept coming back until the HVAC returns were properly cleaned and sealed.
Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out
Your couch, your grandmother’s china, your kids’ school photos, none of it belongs in a landfill just because smoke got to it. We inventory, photograph, and pack out contents from your Kennesaw home, then clean and restore them in our controlled facility using ultrasonic cleaning for hard items and specialized laundering for textiles. While the structure is being repaired, your belongings are stored safely and returned when the house is ready. We clean what can be cleaned, catalog what cannot, and handle the inventory your adjuster will need. It is a slower, more careful process than tossing everything in a dumpster, and it is the right way to treat a household’s history.

Trusted Brands We Service in Kennesaw
Kennesaw homes run on familiar, dependable brands, and our technicians arrive ready to work on most major systems. We service and restore property tied to Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, and Goodman HVAC, plus Rheem and Bradford White water heaters, because water and fire losses often overlap when a condensate line backs up or a water heater ignites. We keep a stocked inventory of common fittings, duct parts, and dehumidifier components on our trucks, and our relationship with local Kennesaw suppliers means we can usually source a specialty part the same day rather than making you wait on a backorder. That speed matters when your house is open to Georgia humidity.
Common Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration Problems We See in Kennesaw Homes
- Electrical fires in original 1980s-1990s panel boxes. Many Kennesaw tract homes still run on the electrical panel they were built with, and connections loosen over decades. We see arcing and outlet fires start in garages and attics where heat and humidity accelerate corrosion on older wiring.
- Smoke migration through shared attic spaces. Subdivisions in ZIPs 30144 and 30152 were built fast, and shared attic cavities between townhome units or between attached garages and living space let smoke travel far from the fire’s origin. Odor removal has to address the entire connected envelope, not just the room that burned.
- Water mixing with ash creates corrosive slurry. When a fire is extinguished, the water picks up ash, soot, and dissolved drywall compounds. On Kennesaw slab foundations, that slurry pools and sits, working into baseboards and wicking up into walls. Fast extraction changes the outcome from a cleaning job to a rebuild.
- HVAC systems spreading soot before we arrive. If the blower was running during the fire, soot is in the ductwork. In a Georgia summer, the AC keeps running after the fire is out, circulating contaminated air through the whole house. Duct cleaning and air scrubbing are part of our standard fire restoration process, not an add-on.
Pricing for Fire & Smoke Damage Restoration in Kennesaw, GA
Nobody wants a bill that surprises them after a fire. Here are the ranges we quote most often in the Kennesaw market. Smoke and soot cleanup for a single room typically runs $1,200 to $3,400. Full odor removal with thermal fogging and duct cleaning averages $2,800 to $6,500 depending on square footage and how far the smoke traveled. Contents cleaning and pack-out for a moderate loss usually lands between $3,000 and $8,000. Structural fire repair is scoped case by case because framing, electrical, and finish work depend on the burn severity, but a typical kitchen fire rebuild in Kennesaw falls between $18,000 and $45,000. What drives cost is the size of the affected area, how long soot was allowed to sit, and whether water from suppression created secondary damage. The estimate is free, the scope is in writing before work starts, and we bill your carrier directly. Call (888) 832-2758 to schedule an assessment.
