Construction hours in Paulding County, GA — sometimes called construction noise rules or contractor work-hour ordinances — set when contractors can run power tools, hammers, and heavy equipment.
Unincorporated Paulding County limits construction, demolition, and street excavation in residential areas to 6 a.m.–9 p.m. weekdays and 8 a.m.–8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday under Code § 46-62(12). Loud material deliveries follow the same hours.
Under § 46-62(12), erecting, demolishing, altering, or repairing a building, or excavating streets, in any residential district is prohibited except between 6:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Section 46-62(13) applies the same window to loud construction deliveries, such as tractor-trailer drops of building materials. Off-hours work needs an urgent-necessity permit from the community development department, valid up to 60 days. The property owner or resident is the primary responsible party, and the contractor can be a secondary responsible party. Dallas and Hiram set their own construction-hour rules inside city limits.
Off-hours construction is a noise violation enforced by the Marshal's Bureau and Sheriff's Office under § 46-65. Both the property owner and the contractor may be cited to magistrate, state, or superior court.
