Generator installation in Marietta, GA
Historic homes and big storms
From the Square's historic streets to East Cobb subdivisions, Marietta homes have seen their share of outages.
Tropical Storm Zeta
In October 2020, Zeta knocked out power to more than 120,000 Cobb EMC members, the most damaging event in the co-op's history.

Marietta has six historic districts. Homes in the Kennesaw Avenue district need a Certificate of Appropriateness for exterior changes.

Marietta Power & Water serves much of the city, with Georgia Power and Cobb EMC serving other areas. A generator works the same with any of them.
City of Marietta or Cobb County?
Homes inside Marietta city limits are permitted by the City of Marietta's Building Inspection Division.
Many homes with a Marietta address, including most of East Cobb, are outside the city and are permitted by Cobb County. If your home is in a local historic district, we check whether placement needs review first. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection and handle it either way.
