When Water, Fire, and Storm Damage Happens in Ellijay, NC, We’re Ready
At SERVPRO of Ellijay, NC we understand that emergencies don’t wait—and neither do we. Our locally owned and operated team is available 24/7, backed by a nationwide network for large-scale support.

What Is Ellijay, NC Like?
Tucked into the peaceful foothills of Macon County, Ellijay, NC offers small-town charm surrounded by forests, streams, and rolling hills. Residents enjoy crisp mountain air, quiet roads, and easy access to nature—but the same terrain and weather that make Ellijay beautiful also bring challenges. Seasonal rains, heavy tree cover, and steep slopes can lead to flooding, water intrusion, or storm damage.
Homes in the area range from rustic cabins to modern builds, each with unique restoration needs. Because many properties sit near creeks or wooded slopes, Ellijay homeowners must stay vigilant about drainage, roof maintenance, and moisture control.
What Makes Ellijay, NC Unique?
The name “Ellijay” is said to come from a Cherokee word meaning “place of green things,” and the area lives up to that name. Its lush surroundings and sense of community make it a gem of western North Carolina. Locals and visitors alike enjoy proximity to Ellijay Creek and the Nantahala National Forest—two landmarks that shape the region’s landscape and weather patterns.
Because Ellijay sits in a rain-rich valley with dense tree growth, residents often experience clogged gutters, basement seepage, or storm-related roof leaks. Our team at SERVPRO knows these conditions well and provides tailored solutions for both mountain homes and small businesses across Macon County, Franklin, and Highlands.
Things to Do in Ellijay, NC
Life in Ellijay centers around the outdoors. Locals spend weekends fishing or kayaking in nearby rivers and exploring trails that wind through the Nantahala National Forest. Families visit Franklin’s shops or seasonal festivals, while vacation-home owners come to unwind among the trees.
This love of nature makes property care especially important—moisture, fallen limbs, and leaf buildup can quickly lead to water or mold damage. Whether you own a year-round home or a rental cabin, having a restoration partner nearby ensures you’re protected year-round.
Water Damage Restoration in Ellijay, NC
Ellijay’s mountain weather means that water damage restoration is one of our most requested services. From flooded basements to burst pipes in winter, moisture can spread quickly through wood-frame structures.
Our crews use advanced extraction, drying, and dehumidification equipment to remove water fast and prevent mold. We handle everything from hidden leaks under floors to major flooding after a storm. Local businesses—like inns, shops, or rental cabins—trust SERVPRO to restore their property with minimal downtime.
When water damage strikes in Ellijay, NC, we’re on call 24/7 to help you recover efficiently and safely.
Fire Damage Restoration
With its wooded surroundings and many homes using fireplaces or wood-burning systems, Ellijay faces distinct fire risks. Our fire damage restoration specialists handle cleanup from soot, smoke, and odor while repairing structural damage.
We help homeowners after chimney fires or electrical malfunctions and assist businesses—such as mountain lodges or restaurants—after kitchen flare-ups. From emergency board-ups to full reconstruction, SERVPRO restores your property while treating smoke odor and residue at the source.
Storm and Wind Damage
Ellijay’s weather can shift fast. Heavy rain, wind, hail, or ice storms often lead to fallen trees, roof punctures, and interior water intrusion. SERVPRO offers complete storm response: debris removal, roof-tarping, water extraction, and structural repair.
Because storm events can combine multiple types of damage—wind, water, and impact—our trained technicians are prepared to restore both homes and businesses from the ground up.

What our Ellijay
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.”
Cad is absolutely fantastic. Very knowledgeable about the business and very friendly to the customer and willing to go the extra mile to help the customer. We used SERVPRO because of the knowledge and professionalism from Cad. I would certainly recommend using this company for any of your needs if you want it head and old and a professional manner.
SERVPRO was wonderful to work with. From the beginning they were accommodating and helped to walk us step by step through the process. SERVPRO did great work. They were always available to answer any questions that we had. I highly recommend using them!!
SERVPRO kept in close contact with me the whole time!! They are professional and did a fabulous job! I can not even tell where the water damage was! I would highly recommend them! My flooring, painting and sheetrock are perfect!
