Permits, power and roofs in Greenville

Inside city limits, permits come from the city's own Building and Permit Center rather than the county, and a reinstall is usually treated as electrical work with an inspection at the end. Duke Energy Carolinas is the utility citywide. Pettigru, Hampton-Pinckney and Colonel Elias Earle are historic districts, and equipment that moves onto a plane visible from the street there may need design approval first. Many of these houses are on their third or fourth roof, so the decking under an array deserves a close look while it is exposed. Winter ice is the hazard people underrate: glazed limbs snap onto roofs and service lines. Helene did similar damage in September 2024, when the downtown airport recorded a gust of about 64 mph.

In North Main and Overbrook, Helene limbs bent rails and cracked glass on some roofs, and leaks at mounts sometimes appeared only with the next hard rain. Along Augusta Road and near Cleveland Park, established oaks throw more afternoon shade each summer, so trimming them or moving part of the array often gets folded into the re-roof plan. Newer infill houses in the West End have simpler gables and come apart more easily.
