Permits, power and roofs in Long County

With Ludowici the only incorporated city, most addresses fall under Long County for permits and zoning, while houses inside the city limits go through Ludowici. Growth has come quickly, much of it tied to Fort Stewart, parts of which lie inside the county. That means a lot of builder-grade shingle roofs from the last fifteen years, plus manufactured homes whose light roof framing suits panels poorly, so solar on those properties is more likely to sit on a ground rack. Canoochee EMC serves much of the rural county and Georgia Power has much of Ludowici, and either one should be told before a system is switched off for a roof job. Slash pines and summer lightning are the everyday hazards.

In the newer subdivisions between Ludowici and the Liberty County line, the usual issue is a young roof with storm damage and an array from a sales company that has since disappeared. Down toward the Altamaha, tall pines shade arrays and drop needles that clog the gaps beneath them. In town, the Ludowici Well Pavilion still wears the clay tile that gave the place its name.
