Permits, power and roofs in Newnan
Newnan handles its own building permits, and a house inside one of its historic districts can need approval for anything visible from the street. Newnan Utilities, the city-owned system, sells power inside much of the city, while Coweta-Fayette EMC and Georgia Power serve the areas around it, each with its own interconnection rules. The old houses have steep, complicated roofs, and some carry older layers of roofing beneath the current shingles. The mill village by the Newnan Cotton Mill has small, simple roofs that are easy to work on. The EF4 tornado of March 26, 2021 tore across the city and badly damaged Newnan High School, and many roofs along its path were replaced afterward.
In the Cole Town and Northwest Newnan historic districts, the main question is how visible the array will be once it goes back on. In the subdivisions off Bullsboro Drive and toward Thomas Crossroads, the usual trigger is a hail or wind claim on a 2000s roof. Along the 2021 tornado path, systems that were put back in a hurry after the storm can be worth a second look.

FAQ
Newnan: questions homeowners ask
Can you take solar panels off for a new roof in Newnan?
Often, yes, when it is planned. Art of Solar is a Florida solar company, so Georgia work is booked ahead and grouped with other jobs in Metro Atlanta, and it only goes ahead with the Georgia license the work needs. Send the address, the panel count and the roofer's tear-off date for a straight answer.
Who is allowed to work on solar panels in Georgia?
Georgia treats the wiring side of solar as electrical contracting, so taking an array off, fixing it or putting it back belongs with a contractor licensed by the Division of Electrical Contractors of the State Construction Industry Licensing Board. There is no separate solar license, and cities and counties can add their own permit and business license rules.
Who reconnects the system in Newnan?
Homes in Newnan are generally served by Newnan Utilities in much of the city, with Coweta-Fayette EMC and Georgia Power around it. When an array goes back on after a roof job the utility usually needs to know, and the building department normally inspects the reinstall before the system is switched back on.
My installer went out of business. Can the system still be fixed?
Usually. The installer's own workmanship warranty is gone, but the panels, inverter and optimizers carry manufacturer warranties that normally still apply, and a dead system is often one failed part rather than a worn-out array.
