Pine Lake is a small city in DeKalb County, between Stone Mountain and Decatur, and its ZIP code is 30072. It sits on the south-east side of the service radius, about twenty kilometers from the Snellville anchor point.
Because the city is small, this page does not describe a housing or flood history, because none is cited for the city. What it can say is that storm runoff and ground water move toward the low lots, and the first readings are taken where the water collects.
A call from Pine Lake is answered on the same 24/7 line as the rest of the list. The first questions are about the power, the main, the source and how deep the water stands.

How does ground water reach a low lot?
Ground water moves toward the low point of a lot after a storm, and a house on that point is where the water collects. The wall base and the lowest room are read first.
The readings are taken in the same places on every call, and the drying runs until each material reaches its goal.
What should be photographed?
The water line, the room from the doorway and the outside wall on the low side are the three photographs to take first. They show the path the water used and the height it reached.
The record keeps the same photographs for later comparison, since a second storm on the same lot can follow the same path.
Who handles the paperwork?
Pine Lake is a city, so its own building department handles repair permits. The owner should ask before any work that opens a wall or changes a line begins.
The restoration record names the department asked, and the reply is kept with the file.
What does a lake-side low lot need?
A lot on the low ground near the lake collects ground water and runoff from the higher streets around it. The lowest corner of the house takes the most, and the readings start there.
The record notes the lake's level if it is known for the day of the loss, and the grade and the downspouts on the lot, since those are the outside conditions that affect the reading.
How is a slab house on this side of the city read?
Slab houses take water at the slab joint and the garage door. The reading starts at the wall base, then moves along the joint and across the floor where the water ran under the finish.
The garage is read as its own space, and its door seal is checked before the drying is closed.

FAQ
Pine Lake FAQs
Is Pine Lake in Gwinnett County?
No. Pine Lake is a small city in DeKalb County.
Why does my low lot take water first?
Ground water and runoff move to the lowest point of the lot, and the house on that point is where the water collects.
Does the line answer calls from Pine Lake?
Yes. Calls from 30072 are answered on the same 24/7 line.
Who issues permits in Pine Lake?
The city's building department. Ask before any work that opens a wall or changes a line.
What should I do first?
Keep out of the water, close the main if a line is the source, keep the power to the wet area off and call.
Does the lake change the drying time?
Humid air and a wet lot slow the drying, and the readings decide the end point. The drying is planned around those conditions, not the calendar.
Should I move the furniture on a low side wall?
Yes, if it can be done safely, and away from the wall so the air can reach it. The record notes what was moved and where.
How long does a lake-side lot stay wet after a storm?
Ground water on a low lot can stay high for several days, and the drying waits on the readings. A lot that stays wet is read again on each check, and the record shows when it turned.
