Discovering Clay County, NC

Nestled in the far western corner of North Carolina, Clay County offers the perfect blend of small-town charm and mountain adventure. With Hayesville as its county seat, the region is known for scenic beauty, a strong sense of community, and deep Appalachian heritage.

Life here revolves around the outdoors. The county borders Georgia to the south and is surrounded by forested ridges, river valleys, and rolling farmland. Much of the land lies within the Nantahala National Forest—a natural playground filled with hiking trails, waterfalls, and wildlife.

A standout local gem is Lake Chatuge, a 7,000-acre reservoir straddling the NC–GA border. Its boating, fishing, and lakeside living define the area’s relaxed lifestyle. The historic Hayesville Square and Old Courthouse showcase local craftsmanship and community pride, while nearby neighborhoods like Brasstown, Warne, Sweetwater, and Tusquittee extend that same mountain charm.

For SERVPRO, that means serving a community that values both natural beauty and resilience—ready for the challenges of a climate shaped by mountains, lakes, and changing weather.

How Clay County’s Climate Creates Unique Restoration Needs

Clay County enjoys warm, humid summers and mild winters—but with over 55 inches of annual rainfall, water and humidity are constant concerns. Add in steep slopes, dense forests, and lakefront construction, and property owners face unique risks:

  • Water & Mold Damage: Heavy rain and runoff can flood basements, crawlspaces, or lakeside foundations. Humidity fuels hidden mold growth in vacation cabins and older homes.
  • Storm Damage: Thunderstorms, lightning, and fallen trees can cause major property loss.
  • Fire Damage: Wooded lots and rural structures face risks from lightning strikes, electrical issues, and wildfires.
  • Construction Challenges: Many Clay Countyproperties are built into mountainsides, requiring expertise in specialized cleanup and reconstruction.

That’s why having a locally based restoration team who knows the terrain—and how to access it fast—matters most.

Water Damage Restoration in Clay County, NC

From a burst pipe in a Hayesville home to a flooded rental on Lake Chatuge, SERVPRO of Clay County, NC, provides full-service water damage restoration.

We handle everything—emergency water extraction, drying, dehumidification, cleaning, and reconstruction. Because Clay County’s terrain and weather make flooding and seepage common, we respond quickly to stop further damage and prevent mold.

Fire Damage Restoration

Fires in mountain homes or lakeside cabins can spread fast due to tree cover and older structures. SERVPRO’s fire damage restoration service removes smoke, soot, and odors, cleans HVAC systems, and repairs damaged structures.

Whether it’s a family home in Tusquittee or a storefront in downtown Hayesville, we restore your property with precision and care—coordinating closely with your insurance provider.

Storm & Major Event Response

Mountain weather can change quickly. Heavy rainfall, wind, and hail can lead to flooding, roof damage, and power loss. When storms hit, SERVPRO’s local crews respond immediately with board-up, tarp, and reconstruction services.

We’ve helped homeowners near Jackrabbit Mountain Recreation Area recover after severe storms and businesses near the Georgia border reopen fast after flooding. Our local reach, combined with nationwide resources, means no storm is too large for us to handle.

Mold Remediation & Air Quality

Humidity and rainfall make Clay County ideal for mold growth—especially in basements, crawlspaces, and seasonal homes. Our mold remediation specialists identify, contain, and remove mold safely, restoring clean indoor air and protecting property value.

We also handle commercial spaces like rental cabins, schools, and offices where ventilation issues can allow spores to spread.

Construction & Reconstruction Services

After major damage, you may need more than cleanup—you need rebuild. SERVPRO’s licensed contractors handle full construction and reconstruction, from roof replacement to flooring and structural framing.

Whether you’re restoring a lakeside vacation home, a retail space in Hayesville, or a mountain cabin, our all-in-one service keeps your project moving without juggling multiple vendors.

Residential & Commercial Services

Residential: Homeowners across Sweetwater, Brasstown, and Shooting Creek trust SERVPRO to restore primary residences and seasonal cabins. We understand septic systems, steep driveways, and mountain drainage challenges that out-of-town contractors often miss.

Commercial: Clay County businesses—from cafés and boutiques around Hayesville Square to storage facilities and rental lodges near Lake Chatuge—rely on SERVPRO to limit downtime. Our goal: restore fast, so you can reopen sooner.

What our Clay County
customers are saying

As a result of a "mixing valve" in our upstairs shower breaking, our Bryson City, NC home sustained three floors of damage to ceilings, floors (carpet and hard wood), walls, and furniture. Our home insurance company highly recommended SERVPRO of Nantahala for our restoration and said they had very good experience in working with them. SERVPRO was at our home within hours. Rex coordinated the endeavor and procured excellent people for each specialty needed: Removing damaged furniture, carpet, flooring and installing dryers, laying new carpeting, re-finishing hardwood floors, painting, dry wall, etc. Literally ALL people involved were courteous, timely, and excellent in their craft. Our completed floors done by Chet Williamson of Franklin looked better than when they were first installed! Additionally, Rex coordinated with our insurance company and went over all the paper work with us to check and double check everything. We wanted our lower floor carpeted stairs to match our new carpet so they provided that for us at an extra charge, which we appreciated very much. You can NOT go wrong with SERVPRO of Nantahala. Some of the best folks it has been our pleasure to work with.

Water was leaking from upstairs to my downstairs ceiling through the air conditioning vent and on the floor flooding it. I called SERVPRO in a huge panic and they came out immediately, investigated the leak, took apart the ceiling and dried everything until it could be repaired. There was a smooth communication with the insurance company. Everything was clearly stated to me. All repair work was coordinated and supervised by an efficient project manager. So happy they were around when I needed them.

The SERVPRO team responded quickly on a weekend to mitigate the water damage to our newly renovated living room. For that, my wife and I are grateful. They were also very professional and did an excellent job repairing the damage. Rex, Frank and the SERVPRO team went above and beyond to make it “Like it never even happened.”
