Construction hours in Alpharetta, GA — sometimes called construction noise rules or contractor work-hour ordinances — set when contractors can run power tools, hammers, and heavy equipment.
Construction-related noise in unincorporated Fulton County is regulated under Chapter 46 (Offenses) general noise rules and through zoning Article 4.15 (Noise). The County does not publish a fixed construction-hour window; each city sets its own.
Powered construction equipment, hammering, and grading must not constitute a Code §46-137 noise disturbance. Many Fulton County cities tighten this — Atlanta restricts construction noise to 7 a.m.-10 p.m. weekdays under Code §74-133, Sandy Springs allows 7 a.m.-7 p.m. M-F and 8 a.m.-7 p.m. Saturdays, and Roswell limits to 7 a.m.-9 p.m. Verify the operating jurisdiction before scheduling work.
Citations issued under §46-137 carry up to $500 / 30 days. Inside cities, municipal code penalties (often civil fines $100-$1,000 per occurrence) apply.
