Electrical contractors in Georgia are licensed by the Georgia State Board of Electrical Contractors. Before hiring, verify your contractor's license through the Georgia Secretary of State's online GOALS portal, which lets you search by name or license number. This ensures the contractor holds either a Restricted or Non-Restricted license and is in good standing.

Electrical work in Atlanta requires a building permit from the City of Atlanta Office of Buildings. The city enforces the 2023 National Electrical Code with Georgia Amendments, along with the 2024 International Residential Code and other current state codes. Your contractor should handle permit applications and ensure all work meets code; if you have questions about permitting requirements, contact the Office of Buildings at (404) 330-6150.

When selecting an electrician, confirm they are licensed, ask whether they will pull permits for your project, and clarify whether they handle both residential and commercial work if that matters to your job. Check their reviews and discuss your specific electrical needs—whether repairs, upgrades, panel work, or inspections—before scheduling.
