Most concrete flatwork — driveways, patios, walkways — requires a permit in Cobb County, issued through the Cobb County Community Development Agency at (770) 528-2060. Fees run approximately $6 per $1,000 of construction value for residential work. Ask your contractor whether they will pull the permit.

Spring (April–May) and fall (September–October) are ideal — temperatures stay in the 65–80°F range with moderate humidity, allowing concrete to cure evenly. Homeowners in neighborhoods like Governors Towne Club and Bentwater planning large projects often schedule during these windows. Avoid January and February when freeze risk is highest, and June through August when high heat accelerates water loss and can cause premature cracking.
