Before you have any major electrical repairs or upgrades done, you’ll need to get a permit from the City of Flowery Branch. You can get the
application form online and mail it to 5512 Main Street, Flower Branch, GA 30542. If you have any questions about this process, call the city’s administrative coordinator at 770-967-6367 or the inspection department at 770-967-6371. If you live outside of city limits, you should get a permit from Hall County. The county has an
online platform where you can apply. You don’t have to apply for a permit by yourself. In fact, it’s best to let your electrical contractor handle it, since the application requires detailed plans for the electrical work to be completed. Before hiring an electrical contractor for your project, make sure they have a valid license. You can check by visiting the
Georgia Secretary of State website. For instance, if you look up Kalahari Electrical Services, you’ll find our license number (EN213186).
