Woodson Terrace
Historic district · Town Creek Greenway · Gallatin, TN 37066
A historic neighborhood next to downtown
The City designated Woodson Terrace a local historic district in 1996. Its homes were built from the late 19th century through the middle of the 20th, and the district is mostly single-family houses on tree-lined streets a short walk from the Public Square. The Town Creek Greenway follows Town Creek into Woodson Terrace on its way downtown, with access points at Perrolee Street and Wilmore Street.
Where water damage starts in older homes
Aging supply lines and fixtures that have been patched and extended over several decades of remodels.
Plaster walls and ceilings that hold water longer than drywall and can loosen from the lath if soaked.
Hardwood floors that cup when water gets underneath and needs slow, controlled drying to flatten.
Roof valleys, chimneys and old flashing that let wind-driven rain into attics and upper walls.
Heavy rain near the creek , when runoff and a rising Town Creek push water toward the lowest lots.

Drying original materials instead of replacing them
In a historic house, original trim, plaster and heart-pine or oak floors are worth saving. We extract quickly, then dry with dehumidification and targeted airflow, taking readings from the same marked spots each day. Floor-drying mats can pull water out of hardwood without lifting the boards. Where something has to come out, we take only what the readings say is necessary and keep it for matching later.
Exterior work in the district may need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Commission. Interior drying does not, but if a storm opened the roof or damaged a porch, check with the City's Planning Department before the permanent repair.

FAQ
Water damage restoration in Woodson Terrace: FAQs
Question not covered here? Call and ask. The phone is answered live day and night.
Can water damage restoration in Woodson Terrace save my hardwood floors?
Often, when they are reached within a day or two. Floor-drying mats and dehumidification pull water out of the boards slowly so they can flatten. Floors soaked by outside or sewage water are a different story.
Do I need permission from the Historic Commission for water damage repairs?
Interior drying and cleanup do not change the outside of the house. Exterior repairs, such as roof, porch or window work, may need a Certificate of Appropriateness, so check with the City first.
Are plaster walls ruined once they get wet?
Not necessarily. Plaster that stays firm on the lath can usually be dried in place. Plaster that has softened, bulged or pulled loose may need repair.
